a varied 2005 season offered lots of great photos for the calendar. From Euro events in GSXR Cup and Supermono to racing the 'other' Mike Edwards Raptor in Minitwins. Oh yes, and that was the year I smashed one of Garry McCoy's Petronas bikes to pieces.

I've had worse
weather this year and considering it's nearly November me and my coaching client are not having such a bad outing at Cadwell today.

Daytona boots!
Daytona Boots - great factory repair facility
I personally wouldn't wear anything else - but I do give them quite a hard time, with me riding many thousands of 'on track' miles each season when coaching and racing.In fact, on a coaching day I put my Daytonas on about 8am and they're then on for the rest of the day until 5:30pm!
I recently sent a pair back to the factory for repairs rather than ask
for a new pair of 'outers' - when they returned, I couldn't believe what
a fantastic job Helmut had done with all the repairs.

A bit 'iffy'
when we arrived at Donington in the dark this morning. But the wind's dried the majority of the track and the sun is out so it might turn out nice for today's coaching client.

Glorious weather

all hands to the pumps
Got to take our stuff off the hire bike now and return it before we can even start to think about packing up.
did my best.
The boys tried their best having put our stuff on a hired bike; but with no warm up session it really was wing and a prayer stuff. It didn't fit me and settings felt awful but I stayed out and managed to get 5th.
Magic is woven!
Big up to the boys, by time I returned from Eric's wedding this morning there was a bike ready for me to take to the grid. Should be on Eurosport 2 about 3pm.
