Best race in years, or so I've read.

It was a *very* good race.

Yeah, I got goose bumps watching it, and I'd even read the report from
cyclenews.com. Those riders are absolutely amazing.
Casey Stoner has to be one of the luckiest kids on earth. His bike was spinning
longitudinally like a top, spit him off, and he landed on knees/hands/faceshield
into the gravel. He hopped up like he'd just fallen out of bed.

I've heard that from numerous sources. Can't wait to see it.
If it's anything like the World Superbikes from Silverstone, it'll be
awesome.
Haga and Bayliss...my goodness Haga is entertaining to watch.

Wouldn't that be nice? I think the key word here is "kid."
Shoot, I lowside in the mud at 35mph and I'm *still* hurting 10 days
later.
If you get a chance to see the WSBK from Silverstone, check out Barros'
killer save in race #1. He goes down, all hell breaks loose, he's on
his hands and knees kinda sliding backwards as an exploding bike is
sliding toward him. He jumps up to his feet, and times his hurdle just
right as the bike slides beneath his feet, and then walks away as if he
just got $20 at the ATM down the street.
Damn...
