    Safety reminder

    A couple of hours ago Simon Crafar posted the following from Almeria in Spain:

    "Today a guy was spraying lube on his chain, engine running, in gear on paddock stand
    Crunch
    His mates found his finger in the belly pan."


    Ouch!

    I've never done it because when I was at school all those years ago one of my friends did it. Yep, old Lefty. Wonder what he's doing now?

    I remember that because we met him at a Taupo track day while he was still bandaged up

    He's got enough of each finger left to clean his chain at least 3 more times with that hand before he has to change hands

    christ... I know accidents happen but isn't it common sense to not work with any mechanical thing spinning in a direction that would either cause it to chew your hand up or make shit fly into you...
