Not really got anything to do with racing this one but I thought you might like to see the little road bike I have just got my hands on. It is a 1991 Yamaha TZR250RS with SP engine, dry clutch and close ratio gearbox. These are quite rare as they were never officially imported into the UK and do appear to get a lot of interest. It gives me something to tinker with in the shed when I get a bit bored.
The guys at the Imperial College London have asked me if I would be interested in riding their electric race bike (pictured right). They have been developing the bike for some time now and there is a growing interest in this type of bike. The organisers have now successfully run two TT races and now have national series set up in a few countries. I will be heading down to London on Friday to have a look at the bike to see whether it is a good to go? I will give an update on my return but for the time being have a look at www.imperial-ttxgp.com/ and www.egrandprix.com/.
