Going on a trip where you don't have everything planned out is fun. Going with the flow is something you've got to live with that way and for a change that's good. At least I like it. Frank picked
Barry, Mark and myself up at the airport and drove us to a tent in Pessac where Park practice was going on. 25 at a time turned into 55 riders at the same time on a semi-tight course. Half of them were brakeless too so it was a mess (as usual). Tomorrow is qualifying. Last year there were 100 ams and 50 pros and the comp lasted 8 hours. I hope it will be different tomorrow but I'm afraid it won't be. All this time I wasn't sure where I was going to stay but we ended up booking into the Premier Classe hotel which is far from first class if you ask me. Definitely booze needed to make it through the night here but we're on our way there so things should work out. We'll keep you posted from here.
