    Yeah,i missed a few issues of P.B.
    How did Ronnie get killed-he was a loose unit that had an un natural amount of skill.
    Who can they get to do cool stuff like this now?
    Luv it!

    apparently, he was killed in a scooter accident the evening he was coming back from his mate's house.
    No details were released, but I am sure it would involve other vehicle(s).

    well this morning I got frustrated at a cage driver encroaching on my line on the motorway so I reached out and bent her side mirror back.
    I was only intending to clip the mirror, but instead gave it the full bend!

    felt better after (never mind the fact I was "failing to drive within a lane")

    Ive kicked out the tail light of Mercedes suv that ran a red light and cut me off in order to stop from hitting them. This turned what should have been a straight thu into a very sharp left hander but the black bits stayed down!

    Road rage ? perhaps but better than:roadkill: :roadkill:
    lol

    cutting off other people's wing mirror: 3x
    Stopping by planting right foot into someone's car side: 1x
    Punching a dent into a car's body on a red light: 1x

    Road rage? me? naah....

    Lifting the zxr250 front end can be a challenge. I think I got a few mm once coming around a cul-d-sac - as I threw myself for the tight right into the tight left I hit the power band and it felt like the front lifted. But maybe not.

    That was my best job until I discovered Foodtown. The Howick Foodtown has a roof top car park, and again, if you hit the power band at the top of the ramp it's easy to get about a foot. Feels like meters the first time.
