I thought about getting into Radical racing. But I think I'd come unstuck on the track on a bike.....

Rob, 'Just don't think too much about what you're letting yourself in for', that's been my approach to things. I'm a good/safe rider on the road but I'm sure I'll be the slowest on Race Day. I'm just in it for a laugh and some quality banter along the way plus I understand Nogaromill makes a good Chili during paddock weekends. Hopefully I'll be there in 2009 if funds permit and assuming me the 'Yellow Peril' get through 2008....

Dont starve is an understatement, i could feed 3 3rd world countries with you!! PMSL!!!

**nogaromill999** · 14 Dec 07, 07:26 PM

You couldnt feed 12 people in your back garden Ollie, if it hadnt have been for your mum and the 'caterers' and ourselves on Sunday morning, we'd have starved if we'd had to wait for you to crawl out of your pit, God help the 3rd world if you're in charge of feeding them !

I'll have to get a few track days under my belt then maybe one day.....
I respect anyone who rides around a track on a bike against other people. I'm sure you'll be up to speed after a few races.....
Decent grub would be a bonus!

It's already done that Imola..... in the past the girly just hated me doing the website, now she has another thing she's unhappy with. Nothing like a good bit of family support is there.....

I'm loving rumours like that although as I keep saying I'll be happy just to finish each race I enter in 2008, anything else will be a bonus. If I get to enter in 2009 I'll think about progressing on to overtaking.

**998gsb** · 15 Dec 07, 10:25 AM

Me thinks Valentino is just a tad too modest....8)
