    YOU can be a TV star!

    Or at least, maybe, a minor asteroid.

    As part of BRONZ Ride to Work Day (go check it out in the Meetings forum), Breakfast TV want to do a show about it. With reporters (hot chick ones!) .

    And they want half a dozen bikers to appear, riding up Hobson St.

    This is your chance

    Instant stardom. Hollywood. Fans. Fame. Celebrity. You could be world famous (in an obscure Dorkland suburb, anyway )

    Seriously though, we need half a dozen bikers (either sex) who can be in Hobson St at 7:40 am on Wednesday . PM me, or post, or put your name down in the Calendar entry if you can help.

    (Big thanks to Big Dave , who's organising a Harley to convey the reporter, and to Motomail who are lending her all the gear ).

    I'd happily 'bike', but the 'to work' bit is proving a little difficult right now

    Well, I don't know if you can it depends I guess on whether you've been practicing. If you mean 'May I do a wheelie?' then sure, you may try. Some comic relief is always good.

    It's Breakfast TV. Not the Horror Show. Would you want to wake up to that ?

    So video footage - all dressed up in full bike gear helmet an all?

    Got my friend to put on all my bike gear and sit on my bike while a took a picture... creepy, was like I was looking at myself.

    If I could rock out with my cock out then I'd be keen... at least all the ladies would recognise me
