Here as well. :-)
The system may have been temporarily down, I guess.  I think they were
going to replace the web-server at some point, maybe you (Eldred, Not
R.D.S) tried during the upgrade.

that guy is just plain nuts/stupid.  I would occasionally split lanes like
that at speed around 10 years ago, but I doubt I'd have the lack of cranial
capacity to be doing that now(although give me another fast bike for a
couple of months, and we'll see what happens....), and definitely not again
and again and again.  Especially, considering how many times people started
to move over for him as he was squeezin' by.  very lucky lad....

All that said, though, it was very cool!

I wish I knew what those guys were saying, and that I knew just how far he
went in those 10-odd minutes.  I assume it was some sort of point A to point
B in X ridiculously few minutes.

OT - hey, has anyone seen the video Las Vegas Extreme (or some other cheesy
name) featuring these cheesy guys that think they're so cool (most
sport-bike riders I've met fall in that category actually) doing some pretty
cool 'ast Bikes' style shenanigans.  FAT stoppies, wheelies, etc.
If I ever get video capture happening, I'll do a capture...

And pushing it, that's for sure.

You might like some of the video here...

http://www.racesimcentral.net/(although the site seems to be down at the
moment)

He's basically describing his approach... the insert is him talking about
how his girlfriend always falls asleep on the duo seat and how she doesn't
worry about him.

Don't know the actual distance, but it's a complete tour of the Paris Ring
road. A fair ol' way in any case.

Never heard of it, but please do.

Did a quick search, it's 27km... that works out at an average of about
155km/h or 98mph. Quite mad considering this appears to have been shot in
morning rush hour.

Never argue with an idiot.  He brings you down to his level, then beats you
with experience...
