Hahahaha - yes! Adherence to rules and anal behaviour has been exemplary since. And, that's what we want: good, clean and safe fun. We want it controlled and we want to ensure that it remains strictly within a very narrow definition of what we are able to tolerate. Because we are enthusiastic about one single model of motorcycle and very precious about it and.... blah, blah, blah... You get the picture Chris? I'm boring myself now...

Aha ... finally found this place again and managed to remember my login details
Yep ... I've spoken to Max and it seems the hosting company's server crashed this morning. They responded quickly to him and said they're working on it and it should be up and running again soon.
