When your on a bike, i mean a big bike, you've got all the power! That big iron thing man, its all fins and rods and edges and power and your part of it. Strong like it is, yeah its the greatest feeling in the world. Once you've really ridden a big bike fast and hard, who wants to do anything else?

is it, torque or bikerboyz,
2 of the worst films ever made.
ive never been able to watch either film to the end, i turned them off after about 10 mins, but a line as corny as that must come from one off those 2 films.

Narrr, isn't that dude out of stone, the leader of the GraveDiggers ??

Definitely Stone- wasn't the leader- was the long haired dude with the English accent. I think his name was Toad?

In some ways yes... in other ways no....
Torque had SOOOOOOOO many fake crappy stunts that were just so fakey fake fake that it made me angry...
Bikerboys had very few fake fake fakey fake stunts.... but had really bad dialogue .... The storyline was ok... but could have been done much betterer...
I still like torque better though.... Partially because I went to school with Martin... so....

Here's a possible third candidate, the Bollywood movie "Dhoom"

I've not seen it, but the outfits and sunglasses alone look pretty scary!

yep have to go with the fort scene in "Stone"...and Toad...hmmm or was it Midnight?

Stone is correct, undertaker, midnight and toad doing the talking.
Cult Classic hey?
Torque and biker boys were both crap movies, unquoteworthy
Racing busas down gravel roads....okaaaay and torque, shoulda used trailbikes for half of their scenes.

they were all off their face, and I *think* this was the scene either just before, or just after, the *race* through the Nth suburbs of Sydney, where Craig Brown (stunt-dude extrodinaire), did a wheelie on his 900, standing on the pegs.......25 years before Troy Corser made it popular on a Spewcati
Here is the old 'Toad himself (a bit older and wider....
).........

Interesting fact I read ...
Money was so tight that many of the cast doubled as crew -- Helen Morse worked in wardrobe, Vincent Gil (Dr Death) worked as a grip. While "between jobs" Shorter had made leather goods to sell at local markets, and he made his own leather outfit for the film.
Sort of thing doesn't happen these days..Couldn't see "The Phonechucker" making his own coffee let alone anything else.

thats a shit jacket the TOAD is wearing. Why do those rally junkies always wear those shit denim jackets littered with 10 cent badges? Is it a genital disease like warts? That if left unattended multipies out of all proportion
