Yeah, was at both (all of them til it went to NSW)

 

"Wayne's done it

Mick's Doohan it"

 

was a crowd sign in '90 - made me laugh

 

Faaaark

 

It's motogp, not motocross

 

That was awesome Kornfeld?

 

Unlucky last corner, great race.

Rode to Eastern Creek in 95 with Mrs BCB on the back (from Cairns)

Got to meet the Honda team at a bike shop in Parramatta

Got my Mick Doohan helmet signed by the man himself :nod:

I was there in 95.  Stayed at the, Park Royal paramatta. 

 

Got up early every morning and went down for breakfast. Sat at the big long table.   Then the teams would arrive.  Luca Cadalora.  Norik  Abe.  Max Biaggi and a few others I can't remember.  

 

Met Kenny Robert's senior in the hotel foyer on sat morning and had a 15min chat.  He was just sitting all by himself 

 

Then on Friday and Saturday night I would go down to the small bar off to the LHS of the foyer.  It was strange.  There wasn't anyone one else there 

 

Next minute up rolls , Daryl Eastlake,  then Kevin Magee, then Alan Jones (F1)   then Barry Sheene . I know there was a couple of others but can't remember. We all shared rounds of beers and bar snacks for 2-3 hours. This happened both Fri and Sat night. I remember it so well.  We drunk carlton cold stubbies. 

 

Then later on Saturday night the guy I was with ( his mate) said he knew where the Suzuki guys were .  So off we went.  And there in the club was Kevin Schwantz and Daryl Beatie.  Shook both hands.  Schwantz had  long bony fingers but a killa grip.  Strange the things you remember. 

 

Awesome weekend.  Will never forget
