There was time for a sunny early Sunday am ride into the Yorkshire Dales with my mate Bob - fantastic as ever. We ate breakfast with ‘our age’ cyclists who were doing a 65 mile spin in the hills and dales.

My grandsons have a new hobby - its how quick can Breakfast in Dales BMW & Serow they slim Gramps’ wallet?, an overnight in Blackpool doing it all and it was super effective, in fact I would have to go back to work (that’s a dirty word after 18 years) to keep up with them. We were so lucky with weather that allowed us to cruise there and back with the hood down. A family room overnight in the Hilton with breakfast is to be recommended. A day by the river with just ice creams to buy was fun too. With Mercie serviced and provisioned next was World Superbikes at Brands Hatch. Di’s great nephew Tho- mas was delivered to us on the campsite and enjoyed Dan & James at Blackpool all the fun of the fair, wall climbing and quad bike rid- ing before the main race day on Sunday. One of his highlights was to get a T shirt and best of all a sit on the new Ducati, not just any old bike but the 1098 that is proving so successful in this seasons racing.

Nous considérons que l’émission de cette licence Championnat du Monde FIM Superbike ou Supersport ou Coupe FIM Superstock, par une FMN, atteste : que le coureur concerné est couvert contre les accidents personnels grâce à une police d’assurance répondant aux exigences minima spécifiées par la FIM (art. 1.11.2) ; que le coureur est autorisé par sa fédération à prendre part à ce Championnat. Pour information, les couvertures obligatoires minimales d’assurance pour les coureurs titulaires d’une licence FIM sont les suivantes : - En cas d’invalidité permanente €uros 50'000.- - En cas de décès €uros 25'000.- - Pour traitement médical €uros 10'000.- - Rapatriement €uros 4'000.- Nous vous informons que le coureur qui ne pourra présenter sa licence (et qui ne pourra donc établir sa couverture d’assurance et son autorisation de participer) ne prendra pas part à l’épreuve.
