Numpties!!

Obviously knew nothing about working out the airtime on a jump for a given speed & weight of bike etc.

Kind of reminds me of me when I was younger, only we didn't do it with GSXRs. Lime burns from concrete aren't pretty, the guy is lucky he can sit down still.

Strange, I never heard those.

In my case it was always "I bet you can't...." Sometimes I could, othertimes I went to casualty.

Been googling - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2kBs-rWlDM

Full vid there, truly amazing.

And the Travis double backflip at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z02GDd-XOZ0 makes me think these guys actually do know how to work out airtime, they just have very big and very hairy bits
