Philip Island

I am so freaking excited!!! Last week the Superbikes and Supersport season started and next week the MotoGP class will hit it off with a night race at Qatar. Today the Superbikes and Supersport class will race at Philip Island here in Australia.

I wish I could be there, but unfortunately Philip Island isn’t exactly around the corner and a tight budget stops us from going there. I am a bit bummed (actually a lot) about it because I haven’t been to a Superbike/Supersport race since 2004 in Assen, Holland. But fortunately we can watch every minute of it on TV, so I’ll be glued to it in approximately an hour.

It promises to be an exciting one. My favorite Superbike rider Troy Bayliss had a bad crash in the training, but with 8 stitches in his arm he still managed to grab Super Pole. I hope he wins. In the Supersport the Aussies are looking good too. I hope it will be a true Aussie domination today and a good race for Dutch rider Barry Veneman!
