Merry Christmas all ( I might as well incorporate Happy New year too, well what the hell)
2008it's been a decent year and I've enjoyed meeting a load of you guys during the year, my summary of the year goes something like this.
I managed to complete a year in the banking /IT industry which is an achievement in itself
I met a top guy Shrek/Kev and watched/annoyed him several times racing at Oulton and have seen him improve each time and look forward to an even better season next year for him

All in all a good year as I have managed to squeeze in loads of DIY and even managed to build a bloody awful excuse of a wall but hey ho, who cares, at least I tried
Next year 2009my plans are to watch loads of local racing i.e M-X at Hawkstone, lots at Oulton and plenty of other local events, also hoping to get to the IOM for a few days with a few buddies to ride that circuit but away from the event s
