Motorcycle and Scooter appreciation

Worse than the footage there is a photo i saw today in the daily mail taken from the front of the crash, opposite view of the vid, of the moment his helmet comes off. It pretty much shows the moment of death

does anyone know of any companies in the UK that hire out bikes, just like normal bikes not super sports bikes or harleys for £500 a week. I just quite fancy getting back on motorised wheels, maybe a little ride home to devon and back.

ah amazing! thanks guys, i rekon id be alright cruising on a hornet, only £145 for the weekend is more like what id wanna pay!

although it is my 25th birthday soon, legal to rent something amazing, temmppttinnng!

that simoncelli incident was tragic. I haven't watched the video as I don't really need to see it. Firt I knew was when i saw it on MCN cover. I have generally zero interest on moto gp or wsb but he actually made me interested in it. Really sad.

Not sure we need the pics really, I thought the same when there was that pic in metro of a stuntman missing his catch on a plane to plane jump or something and the pic showed him falling off the plane - to his death, obviously. Bit much for me.

awesome weekend , thank you so much. more pictures to follow.

Yesss good WE... Gerald loved France and Belgium so much that Kuba and Marky had to carry him inside the Eurotunnel as he would refuse to leave...

so true

Coca-Cola BlāK is a coffee -flavored soft drink introduced by Coca-Cola in 2006 and discontinued in 2008. The mid-calorie drink was introduced first in France, before making its way to the United States and other markets.
Coca-Cola BlāK launched in the United States on April 3, 2006. Coca-Cola BlāK launched in Canada on August 29, 2006 with an event staged in Toronto, Ontario at Dundas Square offering free bottles of the product. On 31 August 2007, trade magazine Beverage Digest announced that Coca-Cola would discontinue the drink's sale within the United States once concentrate supplies ran out.
In February 2007, the drink made its way to Central Europe as it launched in the Czech Republic. French produced Coca-Cola BlāK can also be found in Poland, Slovakia, in some stores in Lithuania and in E.Leclerc stores in Slovenia.
The French and Canadian versions of Coca-Cola BlāK are sweetened only with sugar. The U.S. version of Coca-Cola BlāK replaces sugar with high fructose corn syrup, aspartame, and acesulfame potassium.
Consumer Reports taste-testers found the French version to be less sweet and to contain more coffee flavor.
The American and Canadian versions had a plastic resealable cap on a glass bottle that resembled the classic Coke bottle, whereas the French/Czech version is a bottle shape formed from aluminum.
In 2010, Coca-Cola FEMSA, the largest Coca-Cola bottler in Latin America, released in Mexico coffee dispenser machines under the brand name BlāK

No, I double checked with her last night - she definitely called you "a Doris", not "Adonis".

Gerald goes on a weekend away: -

Turns up an hour late - check
Forgets his passport and has to go back for it - check
Said passport expired a month ago - check
Forgets to print out his Eurotunnel booking (despite reminder from vello) and so doesn't have his reference number to go through the check-in - check
We have to get on a later train - check
Wears a flashing disco vest - check

This is why she called you a Doris...

disco vest envy :-)

i was on the edge of my seat watching that race clip.*
