Rossi may be the king now but remember he wont alway hold the title, There is always someone around the corner,

There was Lawson , Gardiner and Doohan to name a few, Where are they now.

They all had their day and gave us some of the best motor racing we have seen. They are all heros

Ask a young kid today who is Bert Munro, Carl Raybourne and for the real old bikers a name of Hughie Anderson once a world 125 champ. Look him up on the net.

Go Rossi , live it up and enjoy it while you can, all i want is to see Biaggi struggle to get a podium finish.

There is no argument that at this moment in time Rossi is streets ahead of everyone else when it comes to talent, but talent alone doesnt win you a championship.
I was looking at the new british made 800 gp bike in MCN this morning, its tiny and theres no reason to think that any of the other manufacturers machines are gonna be any bigger. That opens the door for the latest crop of 250 riders to come good next year( pedrobot and stoner) as i think it'll take a little time for the older riders to re adjust their riding styles to suit the smaller bikes and the extra corner speed they will be carrying.

If max gets back on the grid next year i think he might do ok as his style was always more suited to 250's than 500's or diesels.

I could of beaten them all on my AR50 (With 93 big bore kit) at aged 16 when I had the munchies and the late night garage was about to shut

I have just noticed you live in Colchester, i lived there for 34 year's before moving to Sudbury, a nice place, but got to big for me.

P.S. Not had the munchies for a good 20 years now .

Better go cause we've hijacked this thread!
