And then I woke up and it was all a dream!

It is an absolutely stunning pic & thanks for posting!

For a moment there I thought you'd just done a respray on your D675 .

Here's hoping that the four Triumph Supersport riders have a bit more success in making it to the finish on Sunday. For those of you going to Phillip Island, have a great time. Millions of us will be watching on TV.

DaveB.

Terrific

And isn't it bloody good to see after so many years!

Thanks Robbo, it has fallen onto my desktop as well somehow

Garry is a top rider and they started out well already 10th I think for Climenti his team mate and you can be sure once Gazza's bike lasts a race he will be a force as they get the bike sorted. He was going great guns till he had to retire from the race.
