BSB » Walker back to BSB with Rob Mac Yamaha

Glad to see Walker back in BSB ,something about that guy that always makes me root for him. Maybe remembering that smoking suzuki which let Hodgeson win the title or that valiant attempt to tame the NSR500. Hope he does well for himself and Rob Mac.

I've always like Chris, having watched him from his first race. It'll be good to see him back in BSB and I hope the bike is good enough for him to win on. My only concern is that he's no longer in the first flush of youth and he's not won anything for so long that he might have lost the drive to finish first.

I wish I could be excited about this but really it only looks like a guy at the end of his career getting one last season out of a bike to me. I hope I am proven wrong, I really do. He's not exactly set the heather alight anywhere for a good few years.
(ok bike's haven't always been the best granted).

I hope he has the one thing thats eluded him all these years...luck! I'm sure he still has the drive to win, and at last has a team willing to give him what he wants! I'll be the one cheering the loudest!

Chris Walker and Rob Mac, now there's a couple of guys who deserve some success. I think I've just found who I'll be supporting next year.
Good luck boys.

Yup Buelliful - looks like a last hurrah - a favourite with the fans but unlikely to challenge for the title......

We wait We see THEN we wait another year. All the very best Stalker

where did my comment go? is it because i mentioned gary glitter??

basically walker should retire because he's treacherous when it comes to team loyalty. the so-called people's champ has had his time in the limelight and is taking up a space that a younger rider should take. at least rob mac will make plenty of coin in merch sales, as walker fans will buy anything to do with him...

he'll be lucky if he's regurlarly fighting for top 6 placings. he could barely manage points with bird's bike.

Didn't he say all the same things when he came back with Rizla?

That said with most of the cream now gone to the worlds this could be his best chance.

Appears to be the end of Karl Harris then as I am sure that Guy Martin is Rob Mac's 2nd rider for 09. No?

Good luck Stalker, you could do with some and same for you Karl. Hope to see both of you in BSB next year.
