well done IOMTT9
« on: June 26, 2012, 09:22:49 AM »
Not just any old race, one of the best I have seen, to dice for 2nd place for the entire race (in those wet conditions) with Jan Frank Bakker was unbelieavable..
(especially for a fat B...........d).
Nice one mate. ;)

Not the best of pics.

For a fat bastard on what a few days earlier was a battered bike is fantastic Dave, wish I could have been there. 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
Was that the wet race were Yjro finished 5th ? I bet he wasn't far behind on Renes lightweight Davis framed flyer. ;)
Is that Frank in the blue leathers in your pic?

I was far behind, but i toke no risk in the second race. I needed only 7 points to take over the second place  in the championship.
Was a great race from colin. :-) Just like my first in Dahlemer;-)

I'm glad to see Frank doing so well too. One of natures gentlemen.

Stockers, I wish I was there!!! I didn't think you would be able to race after Wattie demolished your bike last weekend. Burning the midnight oil paid off! I can't wait to see how you go at the Manx with your new bike.
All the best from your Aussie support team.
Chris.

Must say a big thanks to Dave (Specweld) for a cracking weekend in  Germany (Dahlemer-Binz) who, without is superb directions i would have got lost. Great racing , great company with all the Dutch riders who make you feel so welcome .
My opinion of racing is having a good time and walking away with a smile on your face at the end of the day.
 A superb time had by all !!!!

I can see a considerable aerodynamic/weight advantage in here Colin, very unfair of you sneaking under these big guys!
