Anyone who has clue one about me knows that when it comes to motorcycle racers I admire, above all others is Eddie Lawson.  I only saw Eddie race a couple times on TV, yet I read about him as much as I could.  I did get to meet him several years back at Daytona, adn he was nice enough to answer a couple questions for me with out giving me the famous Lawson stare letting you know, you're an idiot and I will not answer that question because it's beyond stupid".

While this is clearly a marketing video put out by Yamaha to promote the R1 and Ben Spies in MotoGP, any chance to hear Lawson talk about "back in the day" is appointment viewing for me, as it should be for you.

Rossi maybe the GOAT, but Lawson IS GOD.

Yesterday when I was watching the World Superbike finale from Portimao, the post race embrace Davide Tardozzi gave Michele Fabrizio had me thinking...........

The last lap of the World Supersport race from Brno this past weekend was just about one for the ages!  Want to show people why motorcycle racing is SO much better than cage racing, this would be a good place to start.  Maybe not as good the the Assen WSS race last year, but still quite good.

As part of this years festivities for the Isle Of Man race, Yamaha had Valentino Rossi go over and do a parade lap of the circuit with Giacomo Agostini.  Looks like they had a lot of fun!!  Vale makes an interesting comment about the new R1 at the end when he compares it to his 2004 Yamaha M1
