	Bruce Anstey - Catch Me If You Can! New Zealander Bruce Anstey has requested to start at number 1 at this years Isle of Man TT races. The seven times TT winner Anstey says, “I don’t want a repeat of last year where I ended up dicing with the young guns (Ian Hutchinson, John McGuinness & Keith Amor) on the road.

If my time during winter was 100, let’s say 50/50 between holiday and training. I went to the mountains with my friends and I snowboarded with them, which is my favourite winter sport. My training during the winter break is very different than the standard one during the MotoGP season. Anyway, I have never stopped training, otherwise it would be very much difficult to start riding again this year. Full story in the March 2010 issue.
