Updates aplenty

Well, due to some technical difficulties which have now been fixed (cheers Dody!) I had to wait for a bit to spout more BS.

But now I can bore you some more, so hold on:

The vacation was fantastic, thanks to Adam I'm now a member of the insane speeds on the autobahn club. Him driving me round at 300 (and a fair bit more) clicks an hour was quite exciting (and strangely relaxing at the same time). It's also given me something to think about. I want, no, *need*, a Ruf CTR.


After a few great days in Munich, I headed off to Baden Baden to spout more BS (in heavily accented German) with Adrian and some off his very charming colleages. Very relaxing and quite posh as well. Going into the Casino with the local (and international) guests made me feel slightly out of sorts, but as usual this did not stop me for long.

After a few more days of hedonism I headed north to do some serious drifting (getting better) and some more beers.

After this holiday (for which I needed a holiday to recover) I went back to work. And one to Greece, France and Spain I went.

Nothing really to report there (disclaimer: some good pub stories though)



All in a day's work, eh?

And then some more riding on the new bike (900 KMs in 2 days), went to the World Superbike races (Paddock passes: yeah!) and then some serious drinking during Queens day.

So.... riding, driving, drinking, eating, chasing. Business as usual.


Well, off to various other countries, events, friends, races this month too. Got to keep busy. I'll talk to you when I have something to say.
