Well Mrs frosty coulda done with a back protector when we were in auzzie. Seems the Australian wildlife can be er-Lively up in the tamborine mountains.
On a side note entirely---Yes there ARE snakes in Australia but NO they dont like Pirelli corsa front tyres hitting them at 110km/h
To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?
HUH? hasnt been drawn yet has it?
and you wernt the only one...
I used to ride tamborine often, few bikers killed in them hills... and i use to hear the storys about snakes wraping around ya wheel as ya ride over them... came round a bend at 100k and there it was from one side of the road to the other, thought fuk times up but as I rode over it I relised the lack of a bump being a car tyre mark ment it was already dead, kept on riding thinking about the storys I heard about the roos...
cheers DD

How nice of you to give away free a Ladies Back protector which is exactly what i am after as I have entered the Taupo Spectacular meet at the end of December and need a back protector to be able to race. Have been away from the racing side of things for more than 20yrs and am so looking forward to getting back into it. Regardless of whether I win it or not I just wanted to say that it is so nice to see that there are people in this world like yourself who are prepared to give things away for free, as times are tuff for alot of people today with the way the economy is Im sure who ever wins it will appreciate it. Cheers.
Hey Madduck,
I'm up for a free BP
My lil story: Coming over from France, i sold the one I had there, but could not afford one yet when I arrived in New Zealand...
The_Stranger, who i barely knew at this time, offered me to borrow his Scorpio so I could ride a bit by myself and not pillion all the time! So happy to be on a bike after 6 months without riding, I was going pretty hard (scorpiios are so light, you can throw them in corners very easily!) at a ATNR, at night, after riding the whole afternoon around north, without lunch or dinner..Not really a good idea!
A nice corner, maybe a 35, when i arrive about 100km/h, got me: thought, no way, i'm too fast, i will never make it (i actually never did lol)! So decided to go straight and try to brake, saw the gravels on side so stopped braking and landed on the grass, flew over the bike to land under some bush..Woke up in the dark, no idea where i was, so start climbing the hill to triumphally coming out of the bush, where everybody was worrying if I was alright or not!!
Bike was blinged with fresh green grass and mud, handle bars twisted and speedo broken, few bruises and shocked lol! And The Stranger still lean me his bike for the trackday the next week!
That's prety funny now, but i think i scared me and few people that night
Big bling to Noel still from that night
The stupid Wellington wind made the tin shed I park my bike in collapse during the night last week and scratch up my beautiful R6 Waaaaaaaaaa!
Actually I also already have a back protector but I want sympathy!!
You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be quoted out of context, then used against you.
