Where are you reading about ped's retirement? MCN are talking about him testing next years bike.

I think it's about time for him to retire TBH, nobody else has had so long on a HRC bike without a championship. But then he's never been far from the top either.

Don't think Millers done enough to deserve it, should maybe have gone to Rae a couple of years ago.

Those riders are complete and utter nutters! Back in the 60's, I went to Mallory Park a few times to see Hailwood, Redman and Agostini. Thrilling and scary at the same time, defying all the laws of physics as they hurtled round the bends
