Not far rogue, I can't make Arrow Hill as I'll be in Majorca. Gutted as it's my first year as a Monster owner, though to be honest I know where I would rather be! especially now with the weather being so S**T!!!

So Donnington it is - Should be good as it is a great spectating track, just a little uncomfortable.

Hi, I did my first track 'evening' (3 20 min sessions), at Cadwell Park last August and absolutely love it. Anyone faster will go round you. It's a great experience, you don't need to go fast, you just need to go at your own pace and 'ride your own ride'.

Have we switched threads here...??

Anyway, Donnington WSB at the weekend.
Who's going then ?

Leon's qualified second....that'll do.
Sykes third.....could spring a surprise.
Rea and Camier 2nd row, I think.
Laverty is lucky to be starting at the back after a horrendous cartwheeling at craner, which he appears to have emerged from unscathed.

Sam Lowes will be awesome in supersport, I expect.

Just Jim, Lowsider and me then, is it ?
Weather looks like it'll be ok..ish. Probably dry anyway.

How do I spot you then, Lowsider....the hat ?

Biaggi messed up Haga who would have been near the top and Checa is pretty much in his own world...
