Default Race Number

Valentino is 46, Nicky Hayden (and Jim Whitham) are/where 69, our lord and saviour, Bazza was and always will be "7", but if you raced (I know some peeps on here do actually race, but this is mainly aimed at those of us that just dream about it) what would your number be (and why) ?

I'd be 99, I can hear James Whitham (In my dreams) shouting "stick a flake in that" as I come from dead last to win World Superbikes on the last corner of the last race !

When I played MotoGP, my rider was in petronas green, black, and white with race number 29, cos I was born on a 29th.

143

Me and the girlfriend have been trying to outdo each other for the last 10 years to use that number. We've bought number plates, registered websites, booked hotel rooms, its become a sport.

There is a reason for the number, you have to think back before mobile phones

My race number would be #1.

Cos I'd win everything

Ok, maybe not....errrrr....I'd say 26 because thats my birthday, but Evil Pedrosa has that...maybe number 20, since thats the age I passed my motorcycle test, or 127, since the 12/7 is the day I passed my test.

Or, I could be dead boring and use a scientific constant, avogadro's number:

6.022 x 10^23

Since that number is something I use all the time.
