    Ride slow in the rain, they said. No sudden moves, they said.

    Guess they didn't get the memo, aye? Holy crap!

    Mesmerisingly good. Those were some real skills on display ... and not a wheelie, donut or stoppie in sight.

    Sure some good skills but doesn't do much for me, rather watch stunting or hurling round a street circuit.

    Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.

    That's freakin amazing!
    They make it look like there is absolutely nothing to it. Wonder if they could do that with my bike, or rather my tires, or if they use special wet weather tires for that.

    The skills are impressive but I'm just as impressed by their ability to remember the circuit.

    I've done some 4 wheel gymkhana.
    Couldn't for the life of me work out how to remember the friggin courses. In the end I fall back on my old tactic, if you can't do it right, then at least entertain the crowd.

    Ah I can still smell the burning cones now.
