    It's a warning about being called George, and riding a blue ThunderAce.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Three and a half months later still no george, but he is still getting around with the help of two crutches.

    He asked me the other day to hunt down a full set of fairings, so me thinking he's not far off getting back on that machine........god help him.

    Speedy recovery to George, close call and lessons learnt, I still find a challenge riding to my capability amongst my trusted friends dependent on how I feel on the day

    Hi Everyone
    Further to my thoughts about George and his bike, well.......................He's done it again!!!!!

    Six months later he is back on his rebuilt Yamaha, that,s how long it took him to get over his last crash................Today he was following me back from the Broadford Raceway, not far down the road amongst the twisties he,s gone to hard coming out of a hair pin and ran clean into a rock wall completely destroying his bike and much to my dismay hurt himself big time........

    You guy,s must have some thoughts on this subject...........I'm at a loss

    Simple. Refuse to ride with him ever again. The guy is obviously an idiot, and it's only a matter of time before he kills himself- or worse - someone else, and you'll be there picking up the pieces.

    100% agreed....sure accidents can happen but this guy obviously is seeking them out

    well what not many ppl know is apparantly George's brother died whilst ridiing this bike , another rider error caused ( apparently ) George's brothers accident ...... George decided to rebuild the bike as a tribute to his Bro ... he has had 4 off's on it now .. each off getting worse then the previous one .. I call the Bike Christine ( sorta like the car in the movie .. it's possessed ) George just ignores it .. hmmmmm maybe he will believe me now !!
    I was behind him on this off ..I felt bad cause as a novice rider I couldn't find a safe place to pull up cause it was a steep downhill stretch of road with very little cut out to pull over on , I knew he was sorta ok as he was up as I approached the incident ... I headed down the hill and stopped where it was safe too .. knowing that HN would eventually realize we were not coming and turn around .. Luckily a few car drivers stopped and told me what was going on up the hill , I asked one to keep a look out for HN ( gave details of bike etc ) .. only thing that reallyyyyyyyyyyyy pissed me off was a fellow rider ( one we all knew) rode past both myself and HN.. didnt acknowledge either of us , knowing full well someone had come off at the top of the HIll ... so much for riders looking after one another !!

    It is now over 24 Hrs later and no phone call......from him or me, and as bad as this sounds, there is a good reason but not only that the situation on the day was at the least an extremely difficult one, another rider came past me while I was waiting for the other two bikes to come down the hill (Which didn't happen) I was told by a passer by that a guy has crashed further back up the hill ........the thing was the rider who came passed was a friend of mine and he didn't indicate that there was a problem, but he had ridden right past the scene.

    I am yet to find out what my friend was thinking ffs
