| Since I had been pretty much hiding any trace of my previous love affair with motorcycles (1991 when my best friend at the time and I shared a 2 stroke Yamaha RD350), I don't have any photos from back then. I had also been keeping my current amour a secret until my 5 and 7 years old boys decided to blab to Grandma and Granddad....oh well. It is a pretty sad indictment of my relationship with my folks that at 43 years of age I still feel the need to keep things from them. Anyway here is a snap of me with 2 time IOM TT winner Cameron Donald - and yes I did own a honda at the time. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| Me Racing at Brands Hatch WSB practice 1998. Great Bike, it was a Rotax powered Tigcraft we raced between the two superbike events. That year the Supermono qualification time would have put you 6th on the main grid!!!!!!, they were fast. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Oooooooohhhhh. A Tigcraft Single! Thought about importing one to race, back in the day, but never pulled the trigger.... Dammit. Could have learned A LOT about corner speed, no doubt. I envy your experience, mate! They are so Tiny and Perfect. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| 1989. I smelled like 2-stroke most of the time. A moron; just look at those pants! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]2000, my first road bike. Starting to realize I don't know everything. In graduate school so I can gradually learn I don't want to be in school any more. Sweet Casio wristwatch. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]And yesterday. Happy with how life turned out -- there's a GRiSO in the garage and tons of other nice things have happened.

| Just me and the GRiSO relaxing and chatting in the park. She's a very good listener! Tried to get some action shots , but taking pics with one hand on the bars and the other shooting pictures and constantly signalling for a left turn just got other drivers and pedestrians angry with me.
