Re: Great News
We heard "Official Honda Team" at the start of this year Colin - turned out to be DMRR.

What makes you think this'll be different?

Re: Great News
Because it will be ran in HM Plant colours the same as the official BSB team, and the bikes will be the trick HRC stuff used this year by Kyio and Rutter.

Honda have to win everything in 2007 at the TT - expect news of two other signings for them in the near future.

Yeh Yamaha have done well, except for keeping John that is. I think John will also be on a Honda for the Superstock championship. Now, that is interesting as not one single Honda machine ran in the superstock race at the last Donington round.

Re: Great News
I had a good long chat with a certain Honda race team boss from the past last Saturday night we talked about the great old F1 days and places like Mountjuic Park and Villa Real
Talking to him reminded me how just how much fun I used to have at the TT back then so Don I'm inspired to go to the rock for TT 2007 but only if you agree to be there as well.
We can go wallaby hunting at GL and I bet I can convince Larry as well.

Re: Great News
Thanks for the invite Cargo, I will expect my ticket in the mail.
Could you include a stopover in Singapore?
There are no wallabies in Gorse Lea, but I am told a few endangered species
have been spotted around there; apparently they are attracted by the
left over pork pies dropped by the TT spectators.
Our hunt should be in the Curraghs and Sulby area where we can stop in at
Rosie's for one of her famous stuffed potatoes.
This is the area where the Horizontal Marshal claims they have been sighted.

John McGuinness riding for HM Plant Honda? Hardly an exclusive as it was common knowledge weeks ago. But excellent news all the same.

That's true, it would be cruel to do that to the spiders...I was thinking of poor old Don, being homeless on the Rock...you've got a lovely van to live in!

Re: Great News
Don,

I'm keen for 2007

How about we go halves on a tinny and make our own way there?

We could get some practice in your pool before we set off.

We can go by Singapore if you like...
