Why not? It pays for you to have your bike and come out riding with the Old Bulls

After being No.1 correspondent in all Kazakhstan, I moved to America to pursue my movie career and ride motorbikes. With several film success’ I used to turn my hand to rallying and motorcyle racing and competed at a good level in the 60’s. You could say I went like a ‘Bullit’ :laugh:

These I gives ‘massages’ to old men at the homeless shelter just for fun. I earned plenty of money during my budding movie career.

Good on you Moto, well in that case my current job description is to beat people like Moto with sticks, until they comply with the governments (my) wishes.

Risk & Safety Coordinator, beating people into submission is the fun part of the job.

OBT doesn’t like me today I had a reply typed in and the site logged me out and it is gone, consigned to the ether…

I’m a surveyor and spend my days either measuring land, calculating on the computer, driving all over the state, hitting things (like survey pegs) with a hammer, playing with my chainsaw, riding my bike (to check out rural jobs of course), locating marks from over 100 years ago, dealing with Councils, the RTA, the RFS and generally doing good work wherever I go. I’m self employed and have done it real tough in the last 6 months or so but it now looks better and we are trying to catch up on lost time and money!

I’m also an Admiral here in my spare time, because people admire me so much! :laugh:

When I was a kid ( for all you young ones, a triceratops was PM, and a vicious little raptor was treasurer, who later became a PM himself ) I raced MX, my next down brother and my best mate raced BMX, they spent way way more time in the Emergency room than I, so my philosphy is “bicycles have a higher Medically treated injury frequency than motorcycles, and are way less fun, but motorcycling has a higher severity rating”, so just for the thrill of it, my offspring have done both so they get the best of both worlds :unsure: . Moto you MTB blokes can be pure lunatics and I reckon it’s the lack of protective headgear that is part of the problem, and can go really really fast downhill, but yous all suck at hillclimbs.

I have a 4 yr old Norco cruiser in the shed, gee it looks the goods…..:lol:

Hahhha MR Blue.
I read in the Telegraph this week that Norco Bicycles are doing a recall on some of their bikes as the weld on the frame comes away from the head stock.
I have never heard of Norco pushies untill this week, It struck me as funny that a bike that falls apart has the same name as the butter sold here.

Norco make great bikes Mick. Some of the better ones in fact.

I think you’ve hit the nail on the head Bruce. I had waaay more injuries mountain biking than on the Kato but the injuries I get from the Kato are definitely more severe

It is more fun though……although there are times when I wish I had a pushie. Like riding the awaba state downhill MTB track on my Kato :blink: That was tricky!
