Bit of advice pleased, both myself and surprisingly my non bike loving wife both love MotoGP, we were talking yesterday and she said can we go to a race sometime, she fancies a long weekend away in Europe to see one of the rounds.
Which one would you people recommend that is reasonable cost...
I saw a few weeks ago where Colin and his gaggle of Tejano cowboys are riding the Baja 1000. I also think he is riding a night stage now?
I don't follow the Baja that much but I do follow the other big world Rally's like the Dakar enough to know that is one way to get ...... in a hurry...

Great video. I've known about his involvement with AMA racing for a long time, but I didn't know that he was really that committed the sport. Great to see. I hope a lot of people saw this on ESPN and checked out motorcycle racing.

I won't post the links yet cos I'm still not sure if it's allowed, but the videos are hosted in Rapidshare and broken into 15 parts. PM me if you're interested, or if it's allowed, I'll post the links here.
Well Hacking will be riding Hoppers Kaw this weekend. How do you think he'll do? I predict a top ten. He's agressive and never settles for the spot he's in. Plus he knows the track and will also be riding AMA superbike the same weekend, same track. BTW, this is my first post here, seems...
Seems that there's a real possibility Sete might take over Marco's ride as early as Sachsenring while Marco is said to possibly be going to ride Hopkins' bike.
Oh my oh my!
Here's the linky
All speculation so far I guess but would be interesting to see if Marco really has completely lost his nerve.
As everyone knows, bike racing is danagerous and crashes happen.....some are racing incidents and some are plain recklessness.
So - should riders be penalised for reckless riding, what I'd call reckless:

In your humble opinion, in the motoGP class, who has the coolest riding style?
I like Toni Elias's hang off the side for dear life style. Although it's not the best for getting heat in the rear tire, I think it's the most entertaining to watch and appreciate.. He acknowledges it's more of a...
