That spike fulla can peddle, i wish some knob hadnt crashed their shortbike, would have been good to have some sort of reference so it all made sense to me.

Fuck yeah, well done Spike and Astrid alright! Seems he's got his groove on, when we raced him at Ruapuna, he was bugger all faster than Jimmy and I on the Windle.

Yea thats how it happens on a big wheel rig...NO grip...and NO brakes...thats why I love it so much

You think thats Dukes of Hazard shit, the day after boxing day Willy showed me a photo of Basil coming through that same corner behind him and Julie with his front wheel about 1/2 metre off the ground as he had turned in too early and run over the curb

Top effort to you Spyda.
Up in the hot commentary box all day, spilling your depth of knowledge of the topic & priceless one liners to keep us all entertained & up to speed with what was happening out there.
Thanks a lot.
Unfortunately I peaked early in the weekend & was sound asleep while the others were enjoying a quiet bevvy at the north south last night.

I try and stay as far away from his arse as I can, probably why he thinks the beemer handles so funny

Top time at the Ruapuna on the weekends, had more fun watching, talking shit and helping out than I normally do going racing, I'm looking forward to doing the same this weekend

My rider of the weekend was the 70 year old pensioner having a great battle with the girls on Pinky in the GP

I thought out of the few races I watched the sidecars were the most interesting and less of a procession than a few of the others
