Prince William and Harry to bike across Africa

Royal duo to raise money for Lesotho AIDS victims



Royal Princes to bike across Africa
IT SEEMS that it's not just the average middle-aged bank manager who lusts after the bit of manufactured 'excitement' served up on a Sunday afternoon by McGregor and Boorman - Princes William and Harry are, apparently, planning a Long Way Down of their own.
According to reports in the Daily Mail, the madcap monarchs who really are great bike loving chaps (no, really...) are planning a 1000-mile jaunt across the punishing African continent.
Prince William is well known among the two-wheeled community as a biker, having been pictured on a couple of Triumphs and a Honda Blackbird before.
The trip is reported as being the madcap Harry's idea though, as a way for funds to be raised for his charity Sentebale, which helps orphans and AIDS victims in Lesotho, Africa.
Harry has recently had training in riding motorcycles as part of his conditioning to become an Army officer. Concerned parties say that the route will have to take in areas of questionable safety and that the idea could spark a bill of more than £100,000 alone in security costs. According to a source in the Mail, the princes will need at least six protection officers with them for the trip. Speaking in the Mail, a friend of the brothers is reported as saying: "William is a keen motorcyclist and he couldn't turn down the invitation from Harry. The trip is currently being planned. The regiment has granted them leave."

Gresini unveil 2008 colour scheme

By Pablo Elizalde Wednesday, February 13th 2008, 10:50 GMT
The Honda Gresini team on Wednesday officially unveiled their colour scheme for the 2008 season, in an event at San Siro stadium, in Milan.
The team, who last year finished in fifth position in the championship, will have an all-new line-up in Alex de Angelis and Shinya Nakano.
Gresini will also have a new title sponsor - potato chips brand San Carlo - and team boss Fausto Gresini is aiming to win races during the year.
"We are ready for this new adventure," said Gresini. "We are supported by this new, important sponsor that for the first time becomes a main sponsor in the MotoGP Championship.
"We believe both our riders, de Angelis and Nakano, are the perfect couple: Alex is young, but ready for the top class, while Shinya, former 250cc vice Champion back in year 2000 with Yamaha, rode also for Kawasaki and Honda and therefore has lots of experience.
"Moreover, we can say we are one the most 'Japanese' teams in the paddock, so I think Shinya will feel at home. The winter tests, which took place in Malaysia and Australia were positive and satisfying, they proved we are in a good position.
"We are now waiting for the new Honda engine whose evolutions will surely improve the RC212V's performance from last year. As usual. I will put all my heart to make this season a winning one."
De Angelis, making his debut in MotoGP this year, admitted he has been pleased with his acclimatisation to the more powerful bikes.
"These months we've done plenty of work. I'm very satisfied with what I've done so far, considering we didn't have all the best at our disposal," de Angelis told Gazzetta dello Sport.
"This weekend at Jerez Bridgestone we'll supplies us new tyres and most of all we'll finally have the final engine configuration. Now I can't say whether this will allow us to make a step forward by two tenths or by one second, but let's hope the progress will be important."
