What happened to the cross bracing on the Puggle Pod's attachment arms?? Inquiring minds want to know.

 What super groovy, delicious food and beer serving Hill Country patio are you all planning on watching the bike races from today? Great weekend for us homebound riders... AMA SBK (for those that care) and World SBK from Miller today and MotoGP from Mugello tonight on Speed TV. If you can't be on the bike riding the Three Sisters having Jen and Colin at the movies and me home alone with the remote will have to do! applause Vino!

Pull up a chair...

Ron's 1098 received an emergency rear-brakectomy. Most likely Post Tramatic Stress Syndrome from the track day get-off.

"Clutchless George" has been sidelined, although he is currently mounting the White Unicorn.

The PP9000 has fully recovered with some rewelding. Evidently an initial weld was faulty. Legal action is pending.

My tyre completely died yesterday, so Desmolu offered to let me ride her bike with her in the back... Of course I had to do a repeat performance and proceeded to shred her tyre down as well..
