It's a shame to see so much security in the paddock area. I tryed to get in to the paddock tonight but they said I had to have a pass to enter. How do you get a pass? Even last year they let you in during practise week. It used to be good looking at the bikes close up. Shame that can't be done any more.

In their defence I expect it's more to do with the fact that certain undesirables go in to steal from the guys (and galls!) when they're out at practice. Unfortunately, it's a no-win situation.
