I'm with Feejer on this. I thought Simoncelli's move was deliberate and dangerous. It's not the first time this has happened in the 250's, nor will it be the last until someone is seriously hurt. In all Simoncelli moved accross from about a meter from the edge of the track to mid-track, and...

Dr Rich and Mrs Rich - well done on supporting your boy in what he obviously enjoys. Giving our kids our love and support is so, so important. I pray he will heal both from his physical injuries, and also the emotional hurt at losing a friend.

Graham, many good things said here, and I agree that when you decide, it's right for you. Don't go missing - we appreciate your company and your racing comments.

I also can't find a link to the practice times. I'll let you know if I find something.

RIP Richard. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family and friends. Thanks for starting this thread - it would not be easy.

Then we headed out. Some riders were being mindful of their pillions needs (great move, guys - always do what you can to keep them happy) so they were doing a shorter ride, and we even lost someone at the first roundabout 2 blocks from the start :? Anyway, at the first regroup: Then a leg...

Hi Everyone - just thought I'd let you know something about our weekend. Highlights - many, but it wouldn't happen and wouldn't be fun unless guys and girls made it that way. It's great riding and 'sharing wisdom' after the rides. Some great riding, and very fun pace, on some great roads...

I met up with Kork a few years ago, here in Brisbane now. Always supported him from my days in South Africa, and in the early 70's did quite a bit of photography around race tracks, as well as working with a SA 250 champion for a few years (Kevin Hellyer, whose son Dane is making a name for...

Yep, similar. Is it something in the 'murcan water?

I've just seen it on TV in the wrap up of qualifying. It is unbelievabloodyble. Might have a sore elbow.

If you haven't yet booked, time is running out. This could be the best FJR-specific get-together and ride of the year. Time to order shirts, for those who want them. Remember that this is the 5th annual State of Origin get together, and the shirts are only available by pre-order. The style...

Good to read. Paying it forward is probably the way to go in the short term, but favours never get forgotten.

Actually, that series of pics is not my bike, but a black one owned by FinnFJR a few years back. The piccies were worth keeping, though.

Black looks good: Black is so slimming: And if it gets dirty, get it washed:

Kevin - I love your signature line :clapping: :yahoo:

And a little more a few days later: Friday morning, and I've almost survived my first week back at work. The site link senmt to me by rocketdoc with the webcams and weather was invaluable. I checked them all repeatedly before we left and when we were there, before committing to the drive...

We have just returned from a fantastic 3 week trip to Canada to visit our son and DiL who are working in Banff for the next few months. We received some advice from RocketDoc which was extremely helpful and not fully heeded :wink: (John, sorry we didn't get accross to Victoria - the schedule...

I think the word you are looking for is "Farkenal" - juts say it out loud, you'll soon get it :rolleyes:

Another view, this on Sony Noise Cancelling earphones: https://www.fjrowners.ws/phpbb2/viewtopic.p...;highlight=sony I always wet them lightly with saliva before seating them in my ear. Helps with the placement and seal.

Thanks feejer. I wssn't going to pay to watch (on pay to view) and anyway it clshed with other commitments. Maybe I'll get to see it on a rerun.
