    Pfffft bike crashes are easy.

    No I didn't, but it was a good one.

    The trip to work is fairly boring so you tend to take advantage of any corners. Like the one on the Strand heading towards Grafton. Nailed it (Finn sytle, qtr throttle) and while leaned over this imbreed lauched his twuck out of a carpark heading straight across the road. He stopped dead when he saw me. Stood the bike up and remembered what Ixion rambled on about target fixation so I closed my eyes. Fuck the brakes on the Brutale are good. I ended up doing a stoppie and stopped about 30cm from the twuck.

    Excellent. I'm going to try this again on Monday.

    Tell that cunt in the truck he's not getting his fifty bucks.

    I told him to do a proper job but not damage the bike too much.

    Good save Finn, glad to hear you made it ok. The bastards just keep on trying to kill us huh?

    Do you want him dead? The brakes on the handbags are shithouse poor.

    I wore the pads, front and rear, to the metal in only 2000ks cos I had to yank the stoppers so hard.

    30cm. Bloody hell.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
