    I swear I still can’t fully get smell out of my head. It’s only been 24 years since I’ve been there, maybe someday I won’t catch random smell flashbacks.

    LOL, it's fucking India, if their is any possible way to fuck something up it will happen there, Spent 2 months their from north all the way South to Goa and then Sri Lanka. It's a love/hate country with beauty and culture on one hand, and a dirty shithole on the other, never knowing in the next 10 minutes which one will appear.

    I've also been all over India and Sri Lanka. I don't think I ever want to return, except to possibly rent and ride a motorbike in Ladakh, but I'd really have to convince myself to do that.

    The trains in France were like that when I went on a school trip in 1969. Flushed the toilet, a flap opened and you could see the ground rushing by underneath.

    This was like 4 years ago, really hope it works out there, India and Trinidad produce some of the hottest girls on the planet, the country is so ass backwards I'm sure every moto gp emplyee from the the very bottom to the top is running around like a chicken with their head cut off about now.

    Same in Germany, 1971. I was with my parents headed to Bremerhaven to pick up the family station wagon that was shipped over from Charleston. A more recent trip between Essen and Berlin a few years ago showed me German Engineering had improved the bowel movement experience on their trains.

    India is basically where more modern countries were 40-50 years ago. They'll ramp up soon enough.

    India will never be a modern country and I actually like it for that, it's a shitshow of pollution, throwing garbage in the street, can't tell you how many times I've stepped in cow shit with sandals, love curry but eventuality I'm like can some one cook something without fucking curry powder, it's a very interesting place, everything works on bribes for 5 dollars

    Stayed up to watch Moto3 FP1 last night. The camera can barely see the bikes when they’re at the end of the straight because of such the shit air quality.

    Damn, that brings back memories. I had to go to Bremerhaven once a month to pick up supplies for our little station. If I recall a carton of Marlboros was like $5 and a case of Bud was $10. The Germans on our island loved Bud so we always picked up cases of it for them:D

    I love watching the first few laps of these guys at a new circuit. It's like watching an overzealous street guy ride on a track for the first time: running off everywhere.

    Does anybody remember when everyone was bagging on Simon when he first started doing pit reporting? That guy is a legend, and has so much detailed insight. Plus he's not afraid to ask the harder questions of the Team Managers.
