Short hello from Belgium

Hello to y'all

I'm an oldtimer from Belgium who's bought his second R6(RJ11), a few months ago for the track. I'm preparing the latter to do a few track days this year. In march I'm going to ride in Cartagena(Spain) for 4 days on the track. First time I go there and also the first time that I will be four days on the track...think it's gonna hurt! ;)

I have a street triple for the road and an RJ11 for the circuit. Before these I had an R6(RJ03) for the track, a Cagiva raptor, an XTX660, a Thruxton,...FJ1200, GPZ1100,...

Well, I've seen some youtube videos and already heard that it's a very nice track-very suitable for a 600. There will be loads of UK-riders too, think the organisers are UK(No Limits). I'm going with the Belgian branch of that organisation..

Bruno, Flemish, Dutch or French :D
Flemish(same as Dutch), but I do speak a bit of French, German and English too...

I'm gonna have a look...should I be scared?!

Well, they're taken a few years ago in the New Forest, after visiting the National Motor Museum, a favourite of mine.

At the end if the day, if you liked it, that's all that matters. If we were all the same, the world would be a boring place.

Oh and I too loved the pic with the horses :clap: :D
