    Although i have seen the races i am glad nobody has blabbed on about it and spoilt for others ,My only comment would be that Race 2 was back to the good old days of Foggy/ Haga/ ect lets hope the rest of the season is as good.

    I saw both races.
    Rea did well with his save!
    Did anyone see the southern 100 races repeated at the weekend? It was awesome!

    I am not really sure how Rea saved that, so close.

    I had a little 'momen't today but nothing like Rea's. Went to change up, released the clutch and opened the throttle and it was still in the lower gear, so loads of revs. Back kicked out about a foot, enough to make the adrenalin start to flow, hate damp roads.

    racing was great, my two fantasy league boys did well, Rea and Guintoli:)

    Shame about hoppa and chaz Jimbo hehe ! I am fourth atm ....................from here on in my slide down the league starts :)

    I love the adrenalin rush of riding, but there is a very fine line between a 'fun rush' and a ' I'm gonna die one '. Today was kinda in the middle.

    It's a long long season....

    Way I see it, if there isn't a risk of danger and injury, it's prob not worth doing...
