A new beginning... on the dark side

In 2003 the Speedtherapy website was built. The 'Race Diary' part was basically a blog about my motorbike racing experiences... this was before blogs were invented. It was a lot of effort to keep it up to date (creating pages manually and uploading them with the images) so by 2006 I had lost interest in keeping it up to date - it just took too much time. The website is still up and has loads of stuff on it:


Then along came blogs. I resisted the temptation to create one simply because it is (or was) the 'in' thing to do. Didn't want to come across as just another anonymous bod trying to tell the world how fantastic/boring thier life really is - eventhough that's exactly what the speedtherapy website did! ;-) Blogs just seemed like an extension of social networking websites.

BUT - a blog seems like a natural progression from the old speedtherapy website - with a far easier to use format for my narcissism (needed spell-check for that one!).

So, inspired by a new racing interest and the cool Sideburn blog, I have now come to the dark side... and become a blogger.

We'll see if it lasts...
