    :laugh: Thats funny,was he a 2T or 4T or both

    4T man through and through, mostly roadies, had a few dirtbikes through the years, he bought a RM500 once, used to ring me up to get me to come around and start it, as his 4T technique wouldn’t work…. he sold it fairly quickly as it wasn’t his cuppo’T
    Was an absolute hoot to ride with him, and he was an intimidating figure at 6’4″ and 130 kilos of muscle, but an absolute dedicated hoon and nutcase.

    He ended up getting meningitis and lives in wheelchair now.

    On the way from moto’s and tigertyne’s house is a stretch of road with some grassy rolling dunes next to it. There is a straight track along it. Moto must have a great time driving to work.

    We figured that one day, due all the blind crests, we could use the helmet coms. so moto could ride his bike along the track flat out and I’ll be in the car to warn him if a bike comes the other way. That way he could ride our fantasy for real

    Spare the obvious

    I used to do the same on the train myself and as for the rolling dunes next to the road, I have ridden them, sweeeeeeeeet.

    You are so on the money Mick – drink, smoke, ride, ride bad women (if your not married of course) dont worry about the small stuff and try to re-evaluate the big issues and make them small, do what ever you want cause tomorrow you might not wake up.

    Thats how I try and live.

    And I used to look for steep slopes with well spaced trees and imagine them being covered in 6 feet of fresh snow and tearing that shit up :woohoo:

    Then I did 18 winters back to back and got it out of my system for real :laugh:

    When i fly in a plane to Sydney…not that that happens much. :( I look out the window and pretend im in a Spitfire diving through the clouds with the sun behind me, hell bent on attacking a German Messerschmitt that is heading back to base.G forces hitting the face i BLAST him to pieces :woohoo:
    The german pilot bails out in time ,i give him the victory waggle of my wings,he gives me a wave and thinks to himself “Ja…das Tommy piliots ist good!!!” i head back to London to recieve my VC and go and have a beer with Winston Churchill.

    Maybe i should be a pilot?….Nah…wouldn’t last too long.

    Bol :woohoo:

    Winston Churchill eh Olde Chappe?

    “I may be a fat Aussie Sir, but you are an ugly Pom, and weight I can lose”.

    Bollocks you are certifiable, never ever tell the flight attendants your thoughts, or ASIO may take you in for a “special” talk.

    Well,I spend more work time on Old Bull’s jousting you lot than I do working.

    Yep I am afraid that could be classed as an addiction.

    YES on the train, staring out the window at the railway service track dreaming about high speed on a bike I have done that one so many a time Champo as you say sweeeeet :P

    TB

    Ive made that dream a reality a few times, it helps when you work for the railway and have a gate key.
