[_] [OT]: My kids' names are on the TeamKR MotoGP bike!

You're probably aware that Honda's F1 team allowed people to have their name
printed on their cars earlier this year, via web submission.

Kenny Roberts' TeamKR racing team made a similar offering to bike racing
fans in September and have come through with the goods; the names of my
children have been immortalised in the bike's livery for this weekend's
Valencia finale.

Given the bike's pathetic performance this year though, I suppose it's not
much to boast about.  Still, the whole thing ran seamlessly via the web -
including being emailed a hi-res PDF of the particular section of the bike
where your submitted name appears.

I'm chuffed anyway (even if they missed out an ampersand).
