Jamie and I will shortly be off on a boys' long weekend.
Destination: Northern Ireland.
Purpose of the trip: the 2010 Relentless International North West 200, the biggest sporting event in Ireland and the fastest motorcycle road race in the world.
Held on public highways between Coleraine, Portrush and Portstewart, it is spectacular and it is mad.
To illustrate, during Tuesday evening's first practice session, one brave soul went through the speed trap - between hedges, telegraph poles and lamp posts - at an eye-watering 204mph. Twice. Hmmmm.
I'll try and update this drivel at some point whilst I'm over there, but the next few days should certainly be fun. Hopefully Jamie will agree.
