    Typhoon

    Wow!

    Today Hiroshima was hit by a Typhoon! The damage is HUGE!
    Houses have come down! Trees everywhere. The power has just come back on about 20mins ago, which has been off all day.
    The winds reached 216kph!

    Thats the news from Japan for today!

    Earthquakes and typhoons, we've damn near matched that in Welly a few weeks ago but not quite up to that windspeed - we only got to 180 or so.
    Cheers

    That'll be cool.....wearing your leathers and helmet and just sit there on a standstill bike would make you feel like GP rider?
    (That is if the bike can standstill)

    but theoritically if the wind comes right from the front then the bike should be all sweet, mate
