Changing my support from Max to JT

05 April 2007 by Az

I’ve been a huge Max Biaggi fan for years but didn’t have the time off work or the money to go see a live race. That is until last weekend at Donington. I jumped in the car and travelled hundreds of miles, spent hundreds of pounds on tickets, b&b, petrol etc and had the best weekend ever. I spent time with James Toseland, Noriyuki Haga, Troy Bayliss and Bussei Giovanni. I also met a few BSB guys...

Donington camping

03 April 2007 by Gary Marley

I attend every WSB round in England and some BSB at places such as Silverstone and Brands Hatch. When Donington was announced I just had to go. I had half a day off work on the Friday, loaded up my van with bed, food, clothes the usual stuff. I then had to endure a four-hour trip down the M1 (it’s gonna be worth it in the end I thought) I got to the camp site and to my amazement I was not allowed...
