A new toolbox, engine, website and some silverware…
…as late as ever, sorry I see I’ve got a new web site, what do you reckon? A fair bit to mention since last time – a fairish amount of motor bike racing, plenty of push-biking, more than my fair share of house painting, as much work as ever, and a new tool box. So I’ve been keeping …
Man of the Meeting ~ Guy Martin
“It’s been a great week at Dundrod and it’s always the job to win the main Ulster Grand Prix Superbike race. I did my best in the second Superbike race to also take the win but if you’re going to win one at Dundrod, the main race is the most important. No one comes to win the ‘B race …

Update from Guy ~ June 10th

Guy’s monthly column in PB Magazine (March 2012)
This is an excerpt taken from Guy’s monthly column in Performance Bikes magazine. It was published a couple of months ago… ‘BSB’s rules have changed this year and that will even things up for some people. I think one team that might suffer from not being able to use the top level electronics is Swan Yamaha. Their R1 was …
Guy Martin at Hein Gericke March 2012
Guy talks about a few subjects close to his heart, tee-shirts, Team TAS, support from the fans, that bloody Martek he’s been building for years, and half naked women in Germany….
Almost the end of February – time for an update!
Keep it short and sweet, what to mention since last time…..A few of you hurt Chip Butty’s feelings on the last blog.

A long overdue blog
Right, i reckon this must be the first time I’ve switched a computer on in the thick end of 3 months. How many days is the thick end of 3 months? Not quite as long as a month of Sundays. That’s 109 days according to the legend that is Nigel Kenny.
Glemseck 101
Right. what do you reckon to these pics? I went on a road trip with the Red Torpedo boss a week or two ago, I know it’s a bold statement but I’d reckon it was the coolest show I’ve ever been to. It was called the Glemseck 101 in Stuttgart, Germany. What about that number plate look? …
A fair bit to mention…
A fair bit to mention since the last blog I reckon. The southern 100 race was where it all started, as always, the best meeting of the year, the weather was kind to us. I managed to get a win, but only the one, really enjoyed it though but it was a bit of a rushing match from then …
Update – Rhyl – Sat August 6th 2011
I’m sorry but I won’t be racing the flat track at Rhyl today, because I’m still injured from a mountain crash and I want to be right for the Ulster. Sorry for the short notice. It’ll still be a cracking race if you planned to go.
