I’m writing this while watching MotoGP.
This time as well, we had to pay a fine at the Suzuka 8 Hours.
The reason… well, never mind that.
Now then, today is the entry deadline for the Bol d’Or, but we still have not been able to complete our entry.
Of course, it’s not because we forgot.
We tried many times and even made the bank transfer, but it still didn’t work.
Europe is on summer holiday right now, so we can’t even contact the people involved.
You guys deserve a fine!
Or maybe a stop-and-go penalty!
A penalty is a penalty!
Long ago, I was late for a Suzuka 8 Hours team managers’ meeting.
I still remember having to pay the fine in cash after race director Sugimoto-san announced it to me.
I’ve been doing this for many years, but that was the one and only time I ever paid a fine for being late.

Marquez won, didn’t he.
Everyone, have a good evening.
I’m going to the sea on my motorcycle.

The photo shows the socks my friend Jack forgot behind.
When I contacted him, he just laughed and said, “Good job.”
