Post Harrow hostilities continue

Far from abating, the rivalry between several of the teams competing at the 2012 Harrow Vinduro has continued to rage, with the release of lurid images too disturbing to be published on a family-friendly site such as this, and an ominous communique from Petr Drakfallov's masters...

This is hot off the press… A picture of the Welsh captain , after all the broken bikes and bad luck with his team members leaving the presentation after the event with the arse out of his pants and a hand full of cold chicken/humble pie.

[Pic removed for reasons of good taste]

Rumour: Team Husky New South will most likely be campaigning two autos at The Harrow in 2013.

Who knows there may be two Husky teams from New South…

The Welsh team's aspirations already appear to be diminishing and we have approximately 11.5 months to the next test at The Harrow. Sometimes you just have to take it on the chin have a little cup of cement and harden the hell up. It also helps if your machine's stays operational.

The talk around town is that there will be three more teams from the New South. It would appear that the much coveted Tony T trophies are on the most wanted radar.

Stay tuned, only about 350 sleeps to go.

I think you have all been giving SB a bit of a hard time..... I know he deserves it but he was hampered this year by having the backbone of his team withdraw at the 11th hour... 11.59 to be precise...i.e. me! No excuses but work has to come first... sometimes, but not in 2013 - it's in the diary!

To help Steve out, I have acquired a new weapon... related to Husky but only for a short period - Cagiva 1980 250 WRX!

I have ordered some bags of cement - all for SB!

 Hate to be the bearer of bad news but it seems your team captain has finally figured that if you can't beat them you’re best to join them. Firstly Shoey can testify that Bacon Balls has put in an application to join team New South for the 2013 campaign. Wisely, Shoey has declined his offer due to his lack of pace and physical toughness. Secondly   Baker has abandoned his SWMs and Maicos for a Husky Auto.

Hammond has been rumoured to be interested in the captaincy of team Wales now that Baker’s gone, I'd suggest mike, Team Wales has never looked stronger.

It will be interesting to see what team will be desperate enough to take on Baker for 2013. And as for the aggressive passing, you haven't seen anything, just wait for the 2013 video then we will see some aggressive manoeuvring.

Gentlemen,

While other lesser nations squabble over Team Selection for the 'Whole Test' (ref: Carl Cranke ISDT comment) alias The Harrow 2013, Team Czech has been sent to Intensive Re-training Camp Gulag 13.

CSSR is confident retrained riders will be a match for excellent Jawa/CZ machines and no match for so called 'Free Nations'.

Please abandon foolish notions of superiority in the face of our skilled riders and superior machinery.

Commissar Drakfallov is undergoing retraining too as it was noted that he was a little too close to the opposing Teams and possible was bribed to slow down with supposed 'engine trouble'.

The Secretariat of the CSSR DUKLA Club knows engine failure of mighty Jawa/CZ is not possible and confidently predicts all posturing of opposing Teams in this hallowed Harrow competition is futile.
