WTF happened to VR

Good exciting race otherwise

Shame about the pileup though

I think he had a problem with the tyres. There's no way he'd be outbraked by both Hopkins and Melandri at the same time. I don't think he'll be buying Elias any beers either.

Apparently rear tyre problem.

Great race though

Amazing watching VR's rear all over the place when he rejoined the track over the grass after his off on the first lap

Hi hon ... me .. biker totty??!!

I was in Athens with work all last week .... I honestly couldn't look another moussaka or chicken souvlaki in the eye

Great race today, tho was gutted to see Vale has apparently discovered reverse gear ... I thought only GoldWings had those!

1098, where's me viagra....

Anyway what I came on here for is- does anyone remember Carnaby
race track near Bridlington in the 70's to late 90's? I think it was an
airfield, I was chatting today to a guy at work who rides a Blade and
even rode prody at Scarbourgh years ago but he's never heard of
Carnaby.
I never went accept to next door to the Lada factory once.

I take it running 1 to 1.5mm tread depth on the thin central grooves is not a good idea? (they are unsurprisingly squared off).

Had a trip up north planned for tomorrow, but hadn't really checked my rear properly until this evening
