Are you sure it has nothing to do with anything?

Sounds like spin to me. And yes, I have. In one instance I flew from the US
to Paris for a week, returned to the US for another week, then flew to
Adelaide, Australia for a month. I used to travel a lot, peaking at being
away from home 280 days one year.

Hayden, I can understand, but if the changes to the '07 machine at Sepang
are limited, why is Mladin going? Wouldn't he also benefit from all the
changes the bikes will have at Daytona?

I'm not so sure about that. He missed the trip once after his tire
failure/bad crash at Daytona in 2003.

So answer the question. Why would Adams fabricate a slant to the story? Is
he a Spies-hater?
