Anyone wandering down the island for the vintage racing this weekend?

^^^^ up there, as I said, anyone going?
Looking like I will be there Sunday. So if you see a ruggedly handsome short arsed bald bloke (shaved head) talking sixteen to the dozen about subjects he has no knowledge of, it is probably me...  :mad:

Oh, and I would probably have a t-shirt on with something about Triumphs and Alaska on it too.
If you spot someone answering to this description, just ask them if it is their FJ in the carpark.


Really looking forward to wandering around the pits as well, not just for the race bikes, but a lot of people slip an everyday rider in the trailer as well, and they just don't bring any old bike, they usually bring their bike that has the biggest wow factor. Sorta like a giant penis measuring thing. There is usually some decent eye candy there. I saw a heap of this sort of stuff at the last meet I went to, a 6 cylinder CBX cafe racer (insane) a Vincent a bloke used for his pit bike... like seriously..?! classic 250 & 350 Ducatis, early '60's UJM's, all sorts of exotica, looking forward to it.
A chance to see bikes you don't get to see every day.. plus watching people wring the necks of classic bikes, riding them in the manner they were designed to be used.

I think the experience of listening to classic machines being tortured could be called an "eargasm".
