    I am never dismayed to see a fellow biker at SASS, even one who has the Death Star

    you will be when Death Star II arrives (the rebuild is progressing) and its pissing down and there is no one else there you will need these glasses even though its night time.

    (maybe dismayed wasnt the right word, maybe 'bugger I wont be able to see anything')
    PS I will bring back your book - at SASS

    SASS car park

    would like to try some exercises were we have to stop (preferably from say 50 from a point to another then change direction, accelerate and stop again completely)
    sort of simulating someone pulling out from a carpark into your line of travel, then dodging them and continuing on. while in control

    Now a while back at the start of a Sass ride I spoke of a crash in Aussie. Below is not what caused it but part of what happened after.

    Craig who crashed along with Jay who is another member of the group and I were pranking the founder of the group online. These are great people. But then Craig crashed. Below is a snippet of what happened and why you need to keep your first aid skills strong.

    Steve saved Craigs life, there is no question of this.

    it is always something I have avoided for one reason or another.
    Never felt so helpless when having watching another suffer something, you can do nothing about except make them comfortable, then wait and watch

    maybe I should look into this and do a course or somethin....

    You should try old tyres, cold mornings, quick turn throttle and a big V twin for giggles.

    Can be quite the wake up call.

    Oh, was that you drifting past the other morning with cars screeching to a halt as you slipped and slid by?
