Do my guns look big in this?
‘Oooh, a mirror’.
It’s easy to make a bad decision, but sometimes it pays to take that tougher path. I’ve had a lot of decent offers on the table for the 2017 season, but not one of them has ticked all the boxes. With every deal there’s always been something missing, which I knew from experience would eventually bite me on the arse when it comes to crunch time. This is my tenth year of road racing, so I guess it’s fair to say I’ve been around a bit. I know how this game works and I know exactly what I need to get the job done. Big trucks and corporate hospitality’s are bloody lovely to have in your team, but I’d trade them any day for a group of mechanics who know how to make a bike safe and fast. That’s essentially what I’ve done, by deciding to set up my own superstock and superbike team for this year. It wasn’t an easy decision to make, but I already know it’s the right one. I’ve got some of the best lads in the industry on-board for the season, having made the call to run Suzuki’s new GSX-R1000s. I’ve been watching all the hype about them and I’ve yet to hear someone say a bad word about one. I’ve not yet even sat on one, but I’ve placed an order for two road bikes down my local dealerships, which I reckon I’ll have by the time you’re reading this. The piggybank’s taken a hammering, and it’s guaranteed to get a hell of a lot more abuse in the coming weeks because there’s a shed load of goodies needed to make these bikes competitive, but it’ll be worth the investment. I’m already sure of that.
