Also, can we start a campaign to send Mladin to WSBK? ...., this is getting ridiculous. BTW, the battle for 2nd was epic at Barber.
Cinders and Ashes? I don't follow. Also Jum, my Spanish is rapidly improving. One of these days I'm going to be able to have a full on conversation with you in Spanish, pandejo.

Also, I'd love for Mladin to go to WSBK. Although I doubt we'll see it as I'm not sure anyone would want to pay him the salary he earns in the US and being able to support his family is important to him. Additionally, I'm not sure there are too many team bosses who want to sign new riders in the twilight of their careers. Regardless of how fast they can still go.

Much obliged, Mick. I'll keep you posted.

From the releases I read today, sounds as though Zemke was just getting a feel for the bike and managed to improve by two seconds in the afternoon session. Hopefully he's found a good feeling and can start pushing for fast laps tomorrow.

You paid Hopkins a compliment, albeit underhanded. I was just warning the universe might cave in a giant pile of flames.

Just because I don't care for Hopkins doesn't mean I don't respect his talent. He knows how to make a motorcycle go fast. In that regard he deserves that respect.

There are all sorts of good words to learn. For example, I've come to be known as guero to my Mexican friends. I prefer it over .......

I know. Just want to make it known I'm not blinded by my dislike for the guy.
