  1. Went to see the Imatranajo IIRC event this weekend (duh, it was only 350km away ;) ). Arrived on Friday evening, and after the race went to ride the track on my old ST2. The racers really need a extra place in their leathersuits where to place their balls :fearscream: You can see posts with just a some kind of small protection etc. No room for error then...

    Sorry for the quality of these shots, made with my Nokia phone... Saturday, there were not a lot of racers on track for the time trials due to weather (sligh rain, and very good times already achieved no Friday on dry track).

    During the afternoon, the sun came out, dried out the track and the race was on!

    No drama, only 1 bike crashed during practice on Friday without big injuries. Disappointingly, there were only 3 ducatis of about 120 racers.. :( There was one in the superbike class, and you could really hear the difference when it shot past.

    I know probably no one is coming to see these now or in the future, but still wanted to give a short update from here :)

    Cheers from Finland!
