My first bike! (well not that actual one - but one like it)
Didn't realise at the time that I'd got a top works machine from the future!
Never did trust the speedo - must have been under reading by miles.

Sometimes you don't realise just how lucky you are.

I hate to say this, as a big Rossi fan, but Stoner would probably win on one of these at the moment. He was totally out of site today, and Rossi can't even go fast enough to get away from the tax man at the moment.
Whichever view you have on the tyre wars, Rossi's looked shot today, but Bridgestone never moaned that much when their tyres were way off the pace.
Great ride from Hopper and Nicky as well.

The rather interesting point to this is Romano Prodi, an avid tax evader himself thinks its okay for government officials to be crooks but god help the rest.

The Italian government will lose anyway, he's domiciled here and pays UK tax.

And here's one of the reasons he's doing it

Here's some more info on what he's doing

No wonder he's going after Rossi, anything to take the publics eye off his negligence. He makes TB look a saint :smt103
