It´s 4 p.m. Nothing, I’m already looking forward to the 7 p.m. Dinner and radio. They’re preparing the backdrops for RMC at the Place. Why? After all, it doesn’t start until Thursday. I learn that it is not the beginning … Continue reading

Sorry. For motorists only.

Guys at the intersection of St. Devote. I arrive: “Bad news. Luxury transport brought to the port of Daytona. But before they dropped it off – they left again towards Fontvielle.” Yes, that’s probably the most in car at the … Continue reading

From time to time, change is needed

Nice Charles will also greet you at the Nice airport. In fact, he wouldn’t have to race at all. Advertising campaigns and signing autographs and taking pictures with fans would fill all his time. He is actually staying at a … Continue reading

Noble tranquility

Lando showed up again today. He stopped briefly at the Metropole. Big change. Some of the reappeared spotters are waiting outside. No chase inside the mall. The run – who knows – just run 10m and you have Lando once … Continue reading

I dealt with Lando unexpectedly early

I met him at the pedestrian crossing and we managed everything with gestures and a smile. He ended up arriving at the Place anyway. Things weren’t looking good at the Place anymore. A group of fat, ugly, aggressive women surrounded … Continue reading

Next time I’ll apologize to Lando

It was raining, was liquidated, we were left alone

Without a bike. MC in the fog. That’s Roquebruine in front, MC is practically invisible. That Roq. Both Menton once belonged to MC. That was a big country. Without a bike, time to explore. There are many paths leading from … Continue reading

Today didn’t have the right solution

After yesterday’s experience at MC – mostly gone. I’ve already been to Cannes. So it was exactly the same today. Stifled by totally lifeless traffic. So I’ll check MC again in the evening. Even worse. Place full of UA carriages … Continue reading

Does it even make sense to leave beautiful Menton? Nothing is going on, I’m sitting on the wall in the Fairmont bend. The guys (MC youtube stars) are bored so they sit with me. We sit until dusk and the … Continue reading
