Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary Jesus how did that pass so quickly. Still some good people on here and enough to keep the account, but a shadow of how it was or could have been now.

An inauspicious start to @WorldSBK on TNT tonight, with the scheduled Toprak documentary not shown, replaced by the season preview. Fingers crossed the live coverage does actually happen in 10 minutes 🤞

Well said that man.
In a honest world, he would’ve won that 8th with Mercedes. That day in 2021 will forever haunt me. Goodbye, Lewis 💔

I think that's excellent news, @matoxley 's string is worth a read. I'm sure there will be tough times ahead for Simon Crafar but hopefully a more consistent and realistic application of the rules, which is what's needed.
Good luck Simon! Tough gig!

MotoGP Spoiler alert: David Brivio definitely brings something to a team, with both @TrackhouseMoto riders on the front row for Sachsenring today. Well done to all 🏅🏁👍

Very true, I had the t shirt and even a Sheene bath towel in the 70s. A great inspiration.
It’s very hard to believe it’s 21 years ago today we lost the fella that inspired so many of us to either watch or ride Motorcycles. It certainly did me. RIP Bazza 7 . Thanks.

Some GP royalty in that pic: a young Garry Taylor with Simon Tonge on the Suzuki front wheel, while Erv Kanemoto and Scot "Twiggy" Jim Wood in the sunglasses watch. Jim started in GP's as privateer Donnie McLeod's mechanic.

RIP Mike Trimby. No one did more for MotoGP. He laid the foundations on which it now stands & was the paddock's last link to the old days. This is the coolest ever photo of him (right), wife Irene and Steve Bayford (left) & Steve Harris of Harris chassis. Daytona 1974?

Hearing this instantly brings back memories of carefree summer holidays in the early 70s, and imagining being there.
Made in 1964 but shown on the BBC until the early 80s this is from the final episode (13) of The Adventures Of Robinson Crusoe. *Filmed on location on Gran Canaria, third largest of the Canary Islands.
