What a tool Laughing

In a similar vein, here's my mate forgetting where the corner was on a track day and carrying straight on. This was hilarious to watch when following:

I am and always have been utterly hopeless. I think fear plays a big part. Laughing

At the risk of actually chatting about bikes, generally, I've seen Glasgow bike coppers ride both across and along this central divider.

I imagine they would claim that it's part of the carriageway rather than a footway.

That will certainly be my contention when I get caught doing it.

I love Karma

Need some off road training on the roads near me these days.

Coming back along the M66 from manny there was what must have been a good 3 metre long crack in the road which my tyre went in as i changed lanes. Was not pleasant at 8:30am after a heavy night out i can tell you.

Probably not great.

Riding just part of one of the 2014 Dakar Special stages took me (and the pillion) two days.

Damn Bolivia's badly corrugated tracks and inadequate sachs shocks.
