Such a cool vid of bike control on the limit in the wet.

Probably, but I didn't see it, so no doubt others didn't either :wink:
Can't see the vid at work but is it the *really old ;)* one from Donny? If so then it's a great vid, I must have seen it at least 50 times :D

Hitler....
Still awesome
looks like he's deliberately drifting it - keeping the throttle open whilst on the front brake to get the rear spinning up and drifting sideways on the way into corners. I dunno if this is just wet cornering technique or if its done to gauge how much traction he'll have on the way out.
I remember watching this at work and just thinking f**k me he's gunna fall off, that must take huge amounts of skill and b******s

Couldn't really see the timing screens but wasn't he .2 of a second off the leader on the second lap (where he didn't go wide at the last corner)... if he was then that's two bloody good riders O.O i'd go a mile to avoid a roundabout in the pouring rain.
Wow! I hadn't seen it but I'm glad I have now.

Did you use recorded delivery?
She hasn't come yet...:eek:;)
BTW has anyone used "your mom" jokes since the 80's? I knew you Aussies were a bit backwards but surely you're not still saying "talk to the hand"?:smt023
