Re: Next stop Phillip Island

Good reports guys :) Not so good to hear about Duke's mechanical woes and jaffa'a injuries :(

Some friends of mine were down there and have been telling me about how good the weekend was. Sounds like Period 6 was a success and it should just get bigger.

I'm the same Steve. Would like to go down but can't justify the costs just to watch. Look forward to reading about.

(I received the paperwork for the Barry Sheene Festival of Speed in the mail the other day. I will be going to that one :D )

mmmmm got to love a bevel drive Ducati. I recently dug my 900SS engine out from under the stairs and have started the rebuild process. (It went under the stairs to make way for Yamahas :) )

Thanks for the kind thoughts guys.

Had my wrist plated and home again. Either they stuffed it up or I'm getting soft because it hurt like nothing else! Brain surgery was easier :)

Anyway that should be the end of operating theatres. Opiates and clinics for a while now.

Cheers :)
