RIP Paul Brown

[Dreama]

RIP Paul. Very sad.
I raced against Paul a few times when he was on Carl Jacksons 955 Ducati at Puke. Even though mine was the faster bike I could not keep up with him except once in the drizzle, briefly.
He said they only had slicks and I said " me to, but don't worry, there's buggar all diff between them and treads when the tracks just greasy ".
So when it did start to drizzle Paul and the front guys slowed up and I shot past him down the front straight into Jennians on the white flag lap. My smile didn't last long because he obviously decided the slicks did have a bit of grip after all when he passed me going over the hill on a now wet track down to the flag.
I just shook my head and marvelled at his skill, bravery and determination.

Deepest condolances to Pauls family and friends.

Let us also not lose sight of the fact that whilst the cop did an extremely stupid manouver, he is going to suffer an awful lot in many ways probably for the rest of his life. He's also going to deserve to get punished and I hope he does but he's also now a victim and his moment of madness will cost not only him but many close to him as well.

I knew Paul through his younger brother Caleb from when I lived in T.K. We had some awesome nights on the piss, one of them involving shifting the dining room table and hinm doing douhnuts on the wooden floor. Took weeks to get the rubber smell out of the house! Another time we thought half way through a bottle of bourbon we thought the best thing to do would be to hide each others bike keys so neither of us could drive. We found his 10 months later in the bottom of the wood shed. Couldn't remember throwing them in there and we had to brake the barrel and hot wire his bike. Hell of a guy and I'll miss him a lot.

Does anyone out there know Caleb's cell number. Been 5-6 years since I've seen him, and would like his number. Please PM me if you have it.

Thought's with all of Paul's family and friends. Esp Caleb and Sarah.

I didn't know the man but what a waste of a valuable life..
someone with that skill level who was riding home shouldn't be taken out by a ... making a dumb and dangerous maneuverer.

RIP.......

The Ride
On the beast of power I do mount,
How fast I can corner does count,
Like a pack of wolves in the hunt,
The alpha leads from the front,
It is the spirit of the wild in us all,
Just don’t take a fall,
Instant speed in my hand,
I am part of a unique hunting band,
Cans of courage do help the cause,
Hear the grinding of your jaws,
Alive and awake your feel,
This is something truly real,
The force of wind against my simple mass,
As I accelerate hitting the gas,
On a silver horse I do ride,
With adrenal bursts of supreme pride,
Maybe fearless and stupid, for others who see,
Sitting in their boring comforting cage gaping at me,
Past like a bullet from the gun,
Just as I hit the mighty tonne,
Helmet, leathers and boots to go,
I am a warrior you know,
The destination I must make is part of the thrill,
It is like taking a magic pill,
Ride with me in the great race just above the ground,
Where wild spirits are to be found,
Back on mother earth it was a hell of a ride,
If I wasn’t scared I would have lied.

RIP Brother Biker
