Anybody see this drivel last night on some misc Sky channel? (I don’t know why we got it).

The premise is these chaps find cars for rich lazy people in the US. Last night they had to find a woman for a publicity film for a bike racing team. She had to be ‘Smokin Hot’ & able to ride a GP bike.

So boss guy sez “I know just the guy to put on this”.

So he calls in some meat-knuckle on a knucklehead chopper called 'Tater' (potato potato?). This chap proceeds to ride around all the bike shops in town asking in words of less than three syllables.

Well crap I thought -you have to check out the race scene, I mean like where else are you going to find anyone who can ride a GP bike? Then if you are real lucky you might find a model level girl. Now I think of it, there was one who did a column for a US bike mag who raced a TZ250. But I wouldn’t send some bumpkin who wouldn’t even know a GP bike from a RM250.

So finally they find some chick & she’s not that hot & Asian to boot (this is the US market remember). But it turns out they want her to ride around on an RS125. OK it is a GP bike, but would have opened the doors quite a bit to potential candidates compared to a NSR500V or motogp monster.

Nope didn't see it, sounds like I didn't miss much.
