That's part of the reason for needing to sell the Kwakka. I just can't ride it on the road in the way it deserves to be ridden.
and come Post Classic racing!If you want to have a real good time, get a race bike.
mate they dont even have to be out of controll.... one of my last rides on the blade i came round a blind corner (left hander) out in the hills, following Plas and a few of the boys, to find a Ducrappy 748/996/8 in yellow getting his knee down...in MY LANE.... i had to lean super hard to avoid him, almost to the point where i was in the dirt... prick...hoffy wrote:this nearly happened to us last weekend up the old road. I nearly swallowed my tounge !!!!
a Yammy R6 ran wide by about 4-5 metres into our oncoming lane, lucky he saved it and got out of our way....also lucky we were cruising along at the speed limit !
