This is my favorite picture from this year's R4. It shows Our Very Own Greg Wells, aka Cheater, in the midst of his rigorous pre-race ritual. Notice how he is exercising his intellect as well as his eye/hand coordination. It was a great honor to be allowed to observe such a master at work:

(Thanks to Bill Fulmer for the photo.)

What's funny is that photo is from Saturday night based on the stack of my Can-Am bodies to the left of Greg's monitor. I guess Greg was more concerned with the computer than the F1 race. :laugh2:

I'm impressed. At least what he was looking at was G-Rated and suitable for children. :)

I should add that Greg let me play around on his iMac, and I LOVE that 27" screen :wub: !
