That burnout was Northy!? I am shocked, I thought he was such a nice young man :lol:

Northwind, your jacket looks super cool, what is it?

Lovely run and great pictures, everyone looking nice and friendly, does wonders for the image of bikers :)

Nah, that was Jimmy Numbers doing the big one, I did a little one for OYB but apparently he was looking the other direction, or changing the film in his digital camera, or something :rolleyes:

That's an old Belstaff Celsius (well, I think that's what it's called), ace winter jacket, not exactly common now though. I love it, it's sooooooo warm. "Ride to Perth? At 5am in January? OK then"

I totally missed that, was that on the run, or when you were leaving pc world? oh well, I'll catch it next time.

On the run, either seconds before or after you took that photo :D That's why my position on the bike is so... goofy.

I did loads last year, because I had an old tyre to wear out... But this year I was on a fairly fresh one so I thought I'd spare it :D

Burnouts are good harmless fun. Wish I could wheelie! Or do a proper stoppie for that matter. But I'm rubbish at them so instead I pretend to disaprove :smt003

My first experience of a real life burnout was a guy on a fireblade up at the eurocentral a few years ago. It was really impressive and the guy did a perfect donut. :notworthy:

But he must have felt like a clown when the tyre went pop and he was stuck with a flat tyre waiting for a recovery van whilst everybody else went a blast down the clyde valley
