Could not help myself this weekend.
With the Storm half finished went for a blast on Saturday. The Meztler Racetec's got a damm good hammering, front end squigging under the power around the bends and roundabouts and the rear end stepping out all the time. It felt so good i had to go out on Sunday evening when it had cooled a little, this time pushing even harder. Tyres look like they have been round Brands for a few laps. frightened a few old people out walking sunday. Ahhhhhhhh life is great.

Lets hope the weather is here to stay.

Anyone else see all the knobheads who think that they have skin made of leather? They will learn when they come off it's better to be hot and sticky than be in hospital.

Yeah, I'd much rather be hot & sticky than have to go to hospital (work) this afternoon...

Usualy most people end up hot and sticky when they come off.
But if its a bike, then yes they could end up in hospital.

Their skin, police and paramedics problem, and maybe a fire crew to wash the bone and skin fragments out of the tarmac

Agreed!

This thread is not going to turn into the 'lights on full' argument hopefully!

And any nurses who just happen to be riding with them & who are expected by all to "go to work". Not that we mind, for a fellow biker, of course... Sorry, boys, but nothing a paramedic loves more than cutting leather. Kinda payback for riding, I think. Although heaps of paramedics I know also ride.

I had a chooky rider (trail bike, chook chaser, chooky...) come in to Emergency one time with a fractured hip. (Doesn't matter where I'm working, people always give me the bike riders to look after...) Walked in with a big pair of plaster scissors & said "just gunna have to cut the leathers off". He scrunched his eyes shut tight, braced himself & said "No, I'll be right. Just pull'm off". I nearly wet m'self he looked so determined, like a little kid trying to get a clenched fist out of a lolly jar. Funny thing was, I was only kidding. What a meanie! Honestly, I always do whatever I can to get the fella's gear off without wrecking it. Oops... that didn't quite come out right, did it?

Did have a bit more of an urgent case on a road-side that I ended up cutting off with a pretty blunt pocket knife. Hope I don't have to do that again... Saw the idiot a while later & he said "I'm heaps better now. I can do the corners stax faster". Be seeing him again soon, I imagine...

Hi All,

I still can't believe some people, I was out yesterday in all my leathers and had to stop at a roundabout.

I heard a bike behind , I turned round to see some guy on a Fireblade wearing shorts and a vest!

He didn't even have gloves on!! Crazy.

Curly.
