Back on Air!

Hi All,
Well, a quiet christmas period in so far as driving, but I've been plugging away at all the nasty bits! Paperwork and gym have been top of the agenda, as I have returned to work at the family business, Kel-Tech Engineering (Plug, Plug!). However, I had a bit of a taster to the year last weekend, when the CBR supporters club held some activities. On Friday last, we had a race night in the Ramada Hotel in Waterford. It was a roaring sucess, and in true Irish style, the bar remained open until the wee hours of the morning! However, for a few lucky guys and gals, it was an early bath. Part of the night, was a draw for a passenger ride the following day in the S2000.
Saturday we headed for the test road. I had heard so many horror storys of the renouned "Bullets Lane", the small road leading to the one and only Bullet Kehoe's house, that I was more worried heading up there than I was heading to Myhimpha in Finland! It was a tricky lane, lots of mud and gravel, and the odd patch of ice, but it gave a great taster of what it was all about. I even had the pleasure of bringing my wonderfull girlfriend Viv for a spin, which was great as it was a promise made near the start of the relationship and it looked like an oppertunity was never going to become possible, but Saturday served it's purpose well! Altough I'm convinced she thinks she can do better, I could have opened a huge can of worms here! Before I move on, I have to give a huge huge thanks to the organizers of the CBR supporters club; Jamie, Don, Billy, and Bill, are the names that shoot to my mind, but to everyone that helped out, I thank you dearly.
Anyway, Sweden. Were leaving for Norway next Thursday for two days testing with John Haugland, and then travel to Karlstad for the rally. Excited? Doesn't even come close to describe how I'm feeling! I cannot wait, a full snow rally in a Fiesta S2000, what more could a kid like me want?! So I'm counting the hours down to that, and as always keep an eye on twitter for the latest news on Sweden!
After Sweden I know everyone is asking whats the plan. Well, it's decided, but I wan't to wait and let the news come as a media press realease, rather than on here, but lets just say it's interesting!
Anyway, stay safe and come back and visit soon!
