Laguna Seca powerslide meet 2011

Ive just watched The BBc coverage of Guna and spotted at about 46.10 the camera pans to an airial shot. To the right of the picture you can see our RV's and party garden we created

Thats the thing about these meet ups! there like a real life dream, that you can always look back on and it puts a big smile on your face! nothing tops the combination of good mates Booze and Moto GP
If we added hookers to that combination, i'd bet it would be more memorable.

I am not sure I would have been able to manage a hooker. Certainly not on Friday night anyway. Were you trying to get my shoes off before i went to sleep Jum ?

Well maybe my feet but more on that and the shameless scam that resulted later.

Race day. We all scatter throughout the circuit complex during the morning but come the race start decend up the hill at a place known as "jumkie's rock". Racers get a corner named after them but jumkie gets a piece of rock jutting out of a gofer hole riddled hill named after him.

everybody knows that you dont really go to a race to watch the races, we have vcr record for that ! We go to the race to soak up the atmosphere and party. This is distracted every minuite or so as the bikes thunder past where we are sat. Just as the race is about to start arrab turns to me and say's "$$$ on who to win" he bets on Lorenzo. I have seconds to think then as if im under some mind control by berrymachine i blert out "STONER". Damn its to late to change my mine, the lights are green and the race has started. For the first part of the race arrab keeps looking at me smiling and rubbing his hands together. Well that look changed soon enough and arrab being a stand up guy is more than happy to settle the bet with no fuss.

During the race us powersliders party hard. We meet a bloke sat on our rock who happens to live in the same town as wilski. Small world, Wil travels halfway round the world to meet a bloke who lives around the corner

The beers are flowing and Gators misses all of a sudden appears with a stack of pizza boxes. What a great girl, she has navigated her way down the hill, bought pizzas for us pissheads then climbed back up the 1 in 3 mountain to feed us. I love that girl
<


After the race we go back to our makeshift garden and party hard, i mean real hard. So hard in-fact i dare not post pics of the drunken lap dances load music and hard liquor. At least the Sheriff didnt break up this party like they did saturday night. I heard the Sheriff say. If the music goes back on or there is any more noise im calling back up
<
<
I wonder who the .... called him, most of the campsite was at the party

If you ask me the sherrif was just pissed off, because he didn't get invited!

Were Lucky we had our British mates with us when the coppers showed up, If it would have been just me, Jumks and the rest of the Mexicans They would have put the boots to us and dragged us back to the nearest fruit or vegetable field to resume our migrant labor!

Your not the only one Rog! Gator has been warned time and time again. If he doesnt make a permanent move soon, she's going to be Mrs Calikid by Laguna 2012

Hehehe.



This wasn't quite a scam, but after Roger & Bonnie's wedding, we go have dinner. One of the best I've ever had in Vegas actually. The beer was included in the meal, but Roger still was trying to run a scam. So we go over to the guy serving the beer on tap. We ask for two beers, and then we stand there about 5 feet from the dude, and down them. Then we ask for another, and Roger says, make it three, one for my buddy sitting with us. We go back to our table and Roger puts his beers right in front of him and starts downing another one. Haha

That was a great meal deal. You would never get free unlimited beer with your meal in the uk. The place would be drunk dry

Oh damn!! that'll be my fault! forgot about that ....... I wanted to go to sleep that night so I could get up early, to watch Laguna, so for want of a sleeping aid I grabbed my "Reg." voodoo doll and pulled all the pins out of it and cuddled up to it for the night ....... I do remember having a strange dream about Casey Stoner arriving on his white stead to rescue me from the ugly big fat ogre ,,,,,, but I swear there where no dreams about him winning ....... well any kind of race that is

Ps; A begrudging congrats to you on the marriage Reg. ( you are a lucky bloke! )



and commiserations to that Scottish chic for having to make you an honest man !!





no actually just congrats to you both and the kids.

PPS if you feel a prick in the arse, don't panic you aren't relapsing back into your pre marital non-hetero ways ........ I'm just restoring pins in the voodoo doll

After the after race party everybody starts packing to head home but me bonnie and the kids decide to stay another night. The following morning we leave Laguna Seca and head to Monteray. We get stopped on the way out and charged £30 as sunday night was not part of the package deal for race weekend parking, even though me and jumkie paid $500 each to park the weekend (robbing .......s). I ask whether i can park there tonight? they say yes and its only $35 including electric hook up water ect. This was handy as we could spend the day in monteray and not have to worry about finding an RV park. First thing we do is head down towards seaside to get some shopping and breakfast. I pop into a walgreens and buy a cheap gps. This is when an earlier decision comes back to bite me.

Now remember when i picked up the RV and Indian Freddy was trying to tell me how everything in the rv works ? Well where driving down the road and we all look at eachother, WTF is that horrible smell? It smells like .... ! .... i thought, the sewage tank must be full. In fact the smell was so bad that when i walked into the toilet i very nearly puked. I had no clue how to sort this out but i was sure indian freddy would have shown me had he been allowd, but partys come first right?
<
We just close the toilet door and form a pact not to open it ever again.

We arrive in Monteray ,park up the festering RV and head to the Aquarium. This place is fairly expensive to get in but well worth it. The misses and kids loved it but for me it was yet more walking and by now im hobbling. My feet from all the walking are red raw.

After a great day out in monteray we head back to Laguna to park the rv for the night. I talk to another person parked there and he points me to where i can dump my .... tank. After a bit of thought i worked out how this was done and the RV smelled a lot fresher afterwards . Parked up ,re-filled fresh water tanks and settled down.

Now this was interested parking there monday night. We got to see Laguna seca as you dont normally see it. The place is like a ghost town. Advertising banners coming down, all the stalls being dismantled ect.

One thing i forgot to mention. On saturday we are having some drinks and food. Jumkie introduces me to a bloke who attends about 7 races per year. Next thing Bonnie and i are being handed 2 credit card looking things. We look ast then and this bloke says " if you want to use them you better hurry". These are special By pit lane qualifying viewing tickets. ....... Wow, thatnks man we say and despite my sore feet we leg it down towards pit lane. We get to security but get turned away, i show him these passes but he directs us to a place near the media centre. We walk over and show the passes. The person there asks our names. We tell him and he starts looking through a list. .... i thought, this aint going to happen. I say "you wont find my name on that list mate" Oh he says "are you with motogp?" Yes i say and we get special wrist bands. Are you with motogp Who was this bloke that gave us these passes ???

Here are a few pics taken from by pit lane.

Sorry ive had to reduce the size but i still cant paste links cut from photobucket on this board. In fact i cant past anything, it like my right button doesn’t work here anymore.
