i for one was dying without any moto gp races. been watching mr hayes do well in ama and kind of watching world superbike without sound cause those announcers kill me.

so qualifying is today does MM go undefeated? does he wrap it up very early and not care? does he race in moto gp moto 2 in the same day? (dorna said no way)

does Jorge or dovi catch rossi and make him finish last ummm 5th sorry or does rossi catch dani. does carl even try anymore?

maybe MM is better than everyone else right now but doesnt mean there isnt other stuff going on and its far from boring. oh yea dont forget about the fantasy game.

I'll be there Saturday and Sunday. Interested to see how the configuration changes to the track will affect things. Hopefully the repave helps traction.

So... did you ride up or just pack your cowl?

Have fun - was up last year and had a blast. Be sure to go to the Mile!

Mile tonight!

Ended up sitting in a 435i - we had thunderstorms 2/3 of the way up and were glad not to have mastered the >500 miles on the bikes

Cal said he's almost as fat as me, so if he's not in the mood to ride on Sunday, I could jump into his leathers.












I doubt he has that sense of humor

Not to rain on anybody's parade, but was it the tv coverage or were the grand stands completely empty.

It looked pretty desolate from the tv coverage, but I also may just be use to GP in Europe.

Glad everyone that went had a great time. Wish I could have.

Cheers

60k people (most in years) just look poor in a place that holds almost 250k

Talked to a few track workers, they LOVE the bike crowd .
They were all surprised about the good turnout.

Indycar and nascrap brings the drunken trashheads... Many of them.


That was the turn 10 crash in moto2:
