YES it's finally here my dad and me are going to the open paddock tomorrow afternoon in assen and see if we can get as many signatures/pictures as we can of all the riders. my goal is to get 2 signatures from Haga, one for my cousin and one for me I'll post pics here too...

thought it would be wise to make the spoiler tag already, cause I know that when I come back next sunday, I would want to share every little detail of what happend with all of you, including results

lets hope the weather stays good too

haha i am so thick!
i thought it was Moto GP this weekend, i was 100% convinced it was untill i read your post and the Moto GP site

Anyway, have a great time Mari!

Let's not


I don't envy you at all, no way.

it rained today on our way back from assen was soaking wet when I got home (which is like, 45 minutes a go) and it looks like we might get some rain on sunday too

had a good time, those open paddock days are good fun! saw all the riders, took lots and lots of pics and got lots of signatures! I got 2 signatures from haga which is really cool. bayliss wasn't there, he's injured (he crashed his bicycle during training), but everyone else was here: max, ruben, carlos (found out I'm taller than carlos ) and lots more

Carlos Checa

fab pics Mari!, wow you got so close to Corser!!

Thanks for the photos Marijke.

Unfortunately you have the wrong person as your fantasy man ... that is Josh Brookes, not Robbie Harms!

I'll change it

Have fun Mari. If Mr. Cute Guy is bored, don't get to know him. He is probably not a race fan then.

Kenan Sofuoglu - a Jerry Lee Lewis, "Hey Lady!" type high voice, or a just loud voice, like I have.

a very HIGH feminin voice I don't know who that lewis guy is here, you hear him talk some bits when the german dude shuts up

Arie Vos had a huge crash, had a highsider which he could manage to keep his bike up, but then lost the bike completly. He is fine, but his rear wheel broke off, it's still a question if he can finish the race weekend... so looks like we won't have a dutch rider anymore

you never see Biaggi without a hat on. I thought he was hiding the fact he was going bald

Thanks for the pic's!!!
