    What an idiot. There's no hazard lights on my bike!

    Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.

    Just get a rotating light and glue it to the top of your helmet.

    Something like this should do the trick:

    Hahahahaa, stop stirring!

    I may very well be down your way Easter weekend. I haven't decided where I'll go/what I'll do for my four day weekend.

    Im catchin ya. 4k in 2 mnths

    Also the thing i first noticed about riding at night is you can actually see the bugs before they hit you.
    I just remembered I forgot to say to you, the other day when we were at SASS in the car park I thought you were mucho greato at counter steering between the half tennis balls (? that's what it was right?). And by mucho greato I meant better than me - I'm mucho CRAPPO but I think you should still take that as a compliment!

    Self deluded slowbie wannabe posers

    Knee down in the real world is monumentally stupid. Very very few road riders have the ability to control their destiny once they find themselves leaned way over with a knee on the deck, they usually find themselves stuck with lean angle and initial line untill they finally escape the corner or catch something nasty and crash.-the corner continues to corner and they cannot turn the bike, Unseen gravel, effluent dump from a stock truck, a sheep on the wrong side of the fence, oncoming car/truck ect ect.

    Knee down, for the most part does not equal fast, it simply means you are carrying lean angle or have climbed off the bike in an attempt get it on the seal to "show" you are fast, time spent with knee down and or lean angle is time spent not going fast, when you have to buy the bloody things all the time, "getting your knee down" gets old! When you see a road rider in his bright and shiny power ranger suit, with scuffed knee sliders, think about being on the road with him coming around the corner at you.........

    Most road riders would not know a race line if it bit them on the arse!, anyhow, proper race lines in the real world will get you killed if your luck runs out. Generally though, most road riders are not that stupid and save the extremes for the track days- except for a small number of sport bike riders and motardists.................

    I used to hate campervans and harley boatanchours the most, for their inability to stay on their own side of the road- but these days, riding in the Akaroa GP, the SCARIEST thing on the road is now the sport bike rider coming the other way........ Called the Akaroa GP as the number of sportbike riders riding on the very edge of their ability has dramatically increased the last couple of years

    When you are invited to ride with other people that exibit that type of riding, stay the fuck away from them, ride off in a different direction and enjoy your own stress free riding-if you are a beginner, only ride with those who will teach you how to think about your riding, how to assess your environment as you go, ride with those that understand the limitations of your bike, and of you, and are willing to be patient
    Speed kills-just ask the rabbit......

    Believe me I care less than you, but I am enjoying the fact that I seem to have started the newest kb meme (I had a look last night and it's easy to turn signatures off, but why would I?)
