    Pretty well you summed it up Chris, alot of middle-aged Blokes getting killed last few years, I put it down to:
    I wanna bike
    I wanna big bike
    I wanna shiny Bike
    I wanna go places
    I wanna go fast
    I wanna go fast on twisty roads

    The road is not a race track. There are some roads that feel very much like one. Eg the road to the Natural Arch out of Nerang QLD.Minimal intersectons, driveways and lots of sweet corners. I sold my road bike because at 100 kph it felt like you could get off and walk!!! At 100 in the bush sometimes it feels crazy fast. I want to go out and put the hammer down. But on a road bike you cant unless you want to stay in second gear.(legally) If I had a road race circuit close by that could satisfy my requirements. I know i could still hit a tree at 50 and not make it, but at least i have removed cars from the equasion.

    Aaaron that’s the area I grew up in, and you’re right even on a big chook chaser it feels slow, Tamborine and Canungra the same. Lakesides not that far and used to be good fun….
