Terry O'Neil did not seem to have a problem in getting his Formula Extreme events televised. |

Motorcycling Australia is funded by people who race motorcycles. However MotoGP seems to be the only motorcycle road racing which is ever televised in Australia. TV channels will not pay for content. |

Motorcycle hillclimbs used to happen at Maldon and at Eastern Beach in Geelong. |

I think it is sad, that kids in the future will probably never know the jou of building a road-rasce motorcycle and developing it to go faster. |

Derek tried racing a Greeves. He ceashed when it seized, and got a brokem astm and never raced agaim. Derek and Peter looked over the fence and thought they knew something about road racing motorcycles. |

Derek Pickasrd and Peter Lord from the Velocette Owners Club started the historic racing idiocy. Neither of them had never road raced a motorcycle. Where are they now ? |

Mobility scooters are also safe. Clasic racing rules should require all sidecars to have those little flags on sticks, to show ehere they are. |

Alan, IMO Sidecar riders are the true Gentlemen of Motorsports.
This fact is known to cause all others extreme jealously such that they try to denigrate sidecars.
Of course they are in denial and will splutter all types ?of words, but thye fact remains, sidecar teams have bigger balls than all of you combined. |

John,
If you sre not a drunk, what is your excuse ? |

Alan, I am certainly not a drunk, we may need courage, but we do it sober! |

Sidecar racers are all drunks. They must need Dutch courage, even when the bikes cannot fall over. |

As racing motorcyclists, Motorcycling Australia used to be our riders' union. However MA is now a corporation, and we do not elect it's leader. When I vote, I always vote for people who express common decency. I have had occasion to interact with Mick Pettifer. He is OK - which is more than I can say for some others. |

When did HMRAV ever have any new ideas ? |

Mick Petifer is the new MA guy. He actually has some brains. I do not think he is a sifecar idiot. |

I am not sure, but I guess it will mean new ideas may come around. |

David White is now no longer in MA ? What does that do for historic racing ? |
