JPC is working like a dog for a change and is therefore too tired to sit up all night posting random drivel like the rest of us.

Haven't heard from Ballast (aka the Fat Lad) or anyone else from Team JPC for ages though. Perhaps they've taken a sabbatical.

Only thing I'm sure about concerning JPC is that he is visiting the booze party at Paddy's in november.

Feel free to join in Robbo, topic is the sticky one on top.

Still sat working my rear end off in order to make 2007 the most extravagent Le-Mans yet.  Preferably with a bike and bike licence by that time, and looking in to how much time you have to spend on the road before you can ride a bike abroad.

Work goes well, so the bike may not be too far away :)

As far as I know, if you have got a full license, you can ride abroad.
Robbo or your insurance company might tell you otherwise however. :) :)

Some of us are still around Robbo, just keeping our heads down but still keeping an eye on the forum.

Brad, I was looking at the bike thing as well. Have you done much digging around yet, was thinking of going to the local shop to see what they would recommend as the best way to get the license and a reasonable bike without killing myself  :-\

Robbo,

Busy trying to avoid all the disruption you chaps are causing in High Wycombe!!!
All that lovely overtime!!!

Rusty - looks like it was a good trip. Wishing I hadn't sold my bike now!

Robbo, my bro goes there regularly and stops by at Prague for the local entertainment  ;) ;) ;)
Quite reasonable, and less clinical than Amsterdam, a note for those visiting... drink the local lager as you will pay a lot for Heiniken etc. especially when in the lap bars.

Brad,

Regarding the bikes, I would just support what's already been said.

A good 600 should be perfect as a first/second bike.

It'll do LM no problem. Just don't sucked into playing "catch up" on the way down! Keep your witts about you; some of those French guys will Gee you up for a race and they know their local roads very well!

Have fun though......
