Paul back in Oz.

Some not to coherrent thought's about the last couple of weeks.

Why I prefer women, kissing Aaron after the 156 mph pass on the RRS2 made me realise beards are scratchy. ( the opportunity you gave me I will never be able to pay back but if you need it just ask and I will try.)

The family that races together WINS !!! I was so pumped at the race efforts of the German family and to walk away with 2 records was just great. The look on Ray's face when he cracked a 100 mph on that blast said it all.

Some one yelled out get a haircut, this struck me as a very 60's comment directed at our mate Chop, then I realized they where refering to his ride not his head.

Steve (The Grill man) Iron butt, this guy fly's from Europe then rides 3 Thousand miles plus to get to tha salt flogs the tits out of his bike and then heads off to put a few more Thousand miles under the wheels to get home, says a lot about his riding ability and the XB's reliability.

FMJ forget his record's or hospitality putting me up or getting me a an XB12R to flog around his best twisty roads, he drops me of at the ferry terminal to head to SF in The Fire Truck every little boy's dream. PS: next time you see FMJ ask him how much an XB12R Indicator lense is worth.

Thing's to do and not to do in Wendover or on the Salt:
Don't put your Helmet in the back of Snail's chase truck, he sent his daughter back to find his key's to his bike (which he had all the time) with my helmet and his gloves in the back, it's nervous enough standing at the start line but more so without your gear.

Do shop at Smith's west end of town evrything you want and as cheap as Co.

In Oz we go bush for some R&R but in Wendover if you go to the American Bush Do take a Candidate with you for safty sake.

Don't stop in the main street of Wendover at 5am with Road Thing for a Photo Opp the local police will light you up and scare you half to death.

Do watch the sunrise over the salt at least once in your life you will not be disapointed.

Dont discuss the posibility of a girl wearing a wig with Roc's dad at midnight in a casino, he is just as likly to go over and give it a tug to prove the point.

For all of the excitment of the Salt,Wendover after dark, the bikes and the speed, the thing that will remain with me for ever is the people.

Be they Buell, Sporster, British or Jappanese riders or just supporters of family member's you pass this way once but and these are people you need to meet and be able to call freind's
