Hello Members,
The planning for MotoGP is well nearing completion and the results will show. With racing season in full swing, I have enjoyed seeing some of you at the events, and looking forward to seeing a lot of you during the rest of the year and most of you at Laguna Seca.

Happy Marshaling!!!
Ken Berri
