We were there the week previous to it. I did however get to ride an FZ1 (Fazer) around the course trying to keep up to it's owner on an MVAugusta Ballacraine's real name is Nige. He bought a Scura and owns a Hinckley Triumph with ray gun pipes. He posts on here occasionally and both he and Juan (MV owner) also post on Visordown if anyone ever puts up a motorcyle thread Gettting very rare these days. Glad to hear no speed limit imposed out of the towns there!!! WE WILL BE BACK!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballacraine Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 Hello! Yes, I am still around. Pleased to hear you will return, Bill. Hopefully you will have more time next visit. Interesting about Paul Dedman having an MGS01......I'll have to go up & take a skeet at it. That reminds me, he STILL hasn't sent out that resevoir cap.......Good excuse to go up & see him. I'm around and about, Cliffy,....but I don't think we have met yet. Family commitments mean that I don't get to ride out anywhere near as often as I used to. Nige.
