Well he cant very well go to the Morgan park track day and park beside us, that track is virtually closed to motorbikes at this stage.

Apparently he's getting married in a couple of weeks.
A friend of a work mate is going to the wedding. Not sure if it's in Adelaide (where she lives) or insterstate.

I believe Troy Bayliss is from the Hunter also, Raymond Terrace, which is not too far from Kurri Kurri, where Casey is from.
The best riders come from the Hunter & the Gong, must be the roads round those parts, BASTARDS!

kevin curtain is from raymond terrace (i lived there for 2 years). Bayliss is from taree which is 200kms or so north of raymond terrace. the stauffers are from maitland. caseys from kurri kurri. chad reed is from west wallsend. lots of farmland roads round here. i used to go for a 150km pushbike ride and not get one set of traffic lights.

What's the bet there's some Spanish bloke on a Spanish forum going how he met this little bloke on a pushie and it turned out to be Dani Pedrosa... except he'd be saying it in Spanish...

And he'd be saying how this guy on the pushbike was the grumpiest sour-puss he'd ever met?
