I feel I should edit the above, I will not be fueled up on beer etc as I am a carbon fibre lightweight who will have to hit the kip for a couple of hours before his laps and crash out for several hours after his laps. My mind and body are convinced that any time after midnight is a foreign land with dodgy food and iffy nightlife that I dont want to visit so even being awake whilst 100% sober will be a struggle. The "Oh fcucking hell" bit is however accurate with a few more scots curses chucked in and probably a fair bit of hysterical laughter at the comedy off I'm bound to have at some point.
The whole event shall at the very least be a highlight of 2016

Not practicing night riding, I really should be but I'm not.
I am reasonably fit but not athletic so I'm just going with that:roll:
Carlsberg don't do training regimes but if they did it wouldn't be like this ^^^
That my friends is the words of a true athlete.... One who's gonna get fueled up on beer and energy drinks and then chunter all the way round to himself "oh fcuking Hell" at every twist/turn/undulation, .... have about an hours kip (due to staying up and telling war stories about his heroic lap to anyone who's still awake or sober enough to listen)
...and then fueled only by a cold burger or dry bit of Pizza roll out of bed to do it all again.
^^^ The Perfect team mate if you ask me

Re: Re:
Really looking forward to this! I'm so glad to have got the invitation from Nick (Spud) - this forum and the community of members have kept me sane, given me things to look forward to, and reinvigorated an almost lost passion for old bikes after having a big black dog sitting at my door for way to long after a really tough few years! He still visits regularly, but having you guys is helping me to shoo him off a lot easier than I ever could otherwise.
Roll on Mayhem!! :mrgreen:

Re: Re:
Yeah but something's are better left at Mayhem .... And never discussed
Like this..... Is this fact or an Urban myth from MM2014 :?:
I've never have gotten to the bottom of how Nobby finished his lap minus socks :shock: ....There is one answer and via necessity its plausible (needs must and all that, and after all bears do it all the time)
But did it actually happen :?
I must admit there isn't any other plausible explanation as to why a grown man could or would loose his socks halfway round, and its not as if you'd stuff them in your back pocket when your done :shock:
Not even Shane Ritchey would have wanted to take up that particular Daz doorstep challenge!!
But honestly alfresco defication on land belonging to HRH Princess Ann the Queens sister ! Has to be treason surely...

Re: Re:
Hahahah brilliant!! Especially the Daz challenge reference
Oh, and Princess Anne aka The Princess Royal is the queen's daughter (I wonder if she has any photographic evidence of when the socks were removed? I've heard she likes to take photos at the race! :shock: )
