I read the other Day the results  in the   Moscow  Times.

They were done By the Morego Lessgallope statistics company .

Yes there was more Japanese bike entered at harrow than Euro Bikes .

But More % of  Euro Bike Made it Home than the Japanese Bikes ..

 So Euro Bike Won Again   ..

Sorry to disappoint you folks, but after careful consideration, the VERi committee is pleased to announce (well some of us are) that the victors in 2015 are in fact the riders of the rising sun. Yes, Japanese bikes have taken the prize this year.

Was it the lack of re-badged Kawasakis on the RoW side, or the sheer weight of the 1000 or so Honda XRs entered on the Japanese side? Actually, it was many factors and no doubt there'll be a mix of smug satisfaction and outrage across all those who attended this awesome event. In any case the series is now at a 1-1 tie...

I have to ask was it to hard?

[odd1]

Looking at the footage didnt see any euro bikes stuck how could that be the right result?

VERi almost had to have a new new committee elected over this issue. After an extraordinary meeting where careful and considered discussions were robustly entertained, engaging such debating tactics as headlocks, name calling and chinese burns, the Euro supporters finally declaring that they didn't care that the Orientals were still smarting (is that an oxymoron in this case?) from their defeat last year but they were above it all anyway, so to stop all the high pitched whining stated VERi should 'just give it to the Asians this year as a GIFT!' An accurate tally was impossible due to the Asian manufactured playing cards used to keep lap scores failing miserably to survive the conditions - well, who'd have seen that coming? Thanks for picking up the cards for us Tex. Next year a more responsible and less conniving committee member will be sourcing near indestructible scoring tags which will eliminate this scurrelous loophole.

... and my final footage from Sunday...

I promise not to post any more video from the event.

To paraphrase Juan Antonio Samaranch, "I declare the 2015 Harrow 100 the best vinduro ever!"
(might be a bit biased, if this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidents_of_the_International_Olympic_Committee#Allegations_of_corruption has any truth to it)

The Euro Vs Japs was a close call this year, most of the Japs decided to take a sabbatical and left the challenge up to a gaggle of XR 200’s of which the Euro’s were still no match.

After an extraordinary meeting where careful and considered discussions were robustly entertained engaging such debating tactics as.......  chinese burns,

Were the Euro burns ineffective?

Next year a more responsible and less conniving committee member will be sourcing near indestructible scoring tags which will eliminate this scurrelous loophole.

I didn't realize you had given the job to some one else!

Sorry The Stig. My PC is only 32 bit and only 1Mb memory. It can't merge the entire set of clips.
