    You guys are safe, I can't ride for shite* Got learned by a triple9 today (bastard was toying with me), those ohlins sure eat up the bumps at high speed!! He went over it sweet as, I was like ok opened her up and the front gets light then comes up and .... slappy slappy slap... show some respect or I'm going to spit you off Schnappy says... so I button off ... albeit reluctantly.

    true. i could keep up, but i was breaking a sweat. my biggest issue (and yes i realise how stupid it was..) was watching the wheel of said r6, instead of the road, then there's a fucking big fat dead possum right on my line - i ended up on the other side of the road in a 'fcuking stupid cnut' type of situation

    Some random pics.

    A Busa will also not keep up with an R1200gs in the gravel!

    Good to hear all is well after a top day. Scolly burgers rocked as always.
