hmmm, sunny day you say? missed seeing a stationary queue of traffic? was there a blonde in a short skirt walking anywhere near the roundabout at the time?? might explain why he wanted to place the blame elsewhere too

know someone who did this in the middle of Torquay town centre and threw his bike down the road the same way....

Reminds me Chris; in Cannes maybe 10 years ago a group of us riding towards a zebra crossing, me leading... I noticed a stunning blonde waiting to cross so did a little stoppie... she crossed and was just in front of us when Vince, bringing up the rear, who had not noticed me stop, had to jam on the anchors and slid along the deck with GPZ1000RX to stop just at her feet! .... It was like a Harmony Hair Spray advert!


... and it wasn't Andrew!

I once stood behind a bloke in Halfords who was complaining that he had been sold the wrong brake pads for his car, When the Halfords employee asked what the problem was, the customer explained that the pads he had taken off his car where thinner than the new ones. I felt so sorry for the bloke once he'd realised what he had done.

what can you say in that kind of situation, eh?

the same guy who dumped his bike in castle circus looking at a leggy blonde also came a cropper on a yzf750 - he was riding up to a junction with some girls sat on a bench and accidentally did a bit of a stoppie. they cheered and clapped so he went round the block again, tried to do it again and flipped the bike right in front of them!!!!

I saw someone wheelie his new RD200 into a wall in a car park in front of all our mates. He broke a drain pipe and had to pay for it as he was so slow making his getaway.

Cover his bike in cheap ally blue bolts.........spent this afternoon drilling them out
