ariella Watched a small documentary on The Doctor once and did notice that his childhood friends were still with him. Sounds like I will have to pick the book up. Seems like something that my son would enjoy reading as well. Just bought him his first motorcycle, Kawasaki Z125 Pro for his 15th birthday. He loves it. We haven't had a chance to actually go to a MotoGP race but we do watch them every weekend. We have been to the MotoAmerica races every year when they are in town. My boy Cameron Beaubier just moved to Moto 2 from MotoAmerica this season. BIG learning curve moving to Moto 2 as it is highly competitive.

Your boy as in your son or favourite rider? Hubby watches Moto2 also and so we’ll look out for Cameron. Such a tragedy a fortnight ago. I love how the riders get out there and ride for their fellow rider. I’ve never forgotten what happened to Simoncelli and it’s effect on Valentino. Hubby and three sons went to silverstone to see MotoGP back in 2014. Rossi got onto the podium so they were happy. The amount of yellow was mindblowing they said. It’s impressive on the tv but to be there in a sea of yellow really showed how adored Rossi is.

Your boy as in your son or favourite rider? Sorry. My favorite rider on the circuit. Yes, it was very sad. The whole of MotoGP, riders, fans, everyone, come together and are globally saddened during these situations. It brings us all together as one family to get through the hardships.

Spotted him! Watching the Moto2 now . Looks like he’s coming in at 10th, which is pretty good considering he’s only just moved into Moto2. There was no catching Remy Gardner today. Hoping Valentino has a good race now. Would so love to see him on the podium.

Yes, top half of the group is really good for a fresh riding moving into Moto 2. It is very competitive. Rossi crashed out. I hate it for him.

Wanted to let everyone know of our progress with hand taming. Got both Rossi and Valle to eat seed out of my hand last evening. Made them jump over a small gap from their perch to my palm. Very exciting stuff.

Well done. Sounds like they’re doing great. Big exclamations of disappointment here when Rossi went off. We just want to see him on the podium at least once this season, especially if he is going to announce his retirement. Hope you had a great vacation.
