Hi all I dont know about being the fastest but I love galloping along a deserted beach on my horse the feeling of freedom is i guess the same as what you get on a bike but I prefer my horse. I was bugged to do a posting so here it is lol :wink:

I did a skydive once. Never again.
Never ever been on a motorbike. Guess I’m not adventurous. -

Ya don’t know what you’re missing. :D -

I’d probably have a go on a Harley Davidson or something slow like that.

Motorbikes… mmmmmm
220kph on the back wheel
185 on the front wheel
190 on no wheels… just the arse of my leathers… ouch!
Much older and wiser and less bolder now – max out at about 220 on both wheels of the beveldrive Ducati.

If ya gonna ride a bike, ride a real one not a Harley. They dont go fast enough, they “put put ” along in cruise. Get on a big red Ducati or Guzzi, one that roars and has attitude. You need to feel the freedom of the wind going right through you, need to feel the peg scrap as you go around that left hand corner. :twisted:

Ah yes…. Mish Mash appreciates the Italian twins.
Have a look at my Hobbies link at http://members.dodo.net.au/~getakat/index.htm
while you’re there, check out the aviation link and the sukhoi stunt pictures I took! Talk about attitude and feeling the wind in your hair!!
If you want to talk about goin fast (and this is certainly not an airliner), check out the SR71 site at http://www.habu.org/
Truly an awesome machine! :!:

Great site Sexpistol….Are you a Britten fan too. I saw the Britten race in Isle of Man T T in 1996. Awesome machine. Got some good shots. Bikers heaven, is the I of M :!:

Ah yes the Kiwis finally did something noteworthy when the Britten hit Daytona. Nice bike and very quick, although shame that John Britten succumbed to cancer whilst he was so young….
Back to the Velocity…. had the mighty 650 Honda Dominator (big trail bike on steroids) up to 140 ….. on the gravel….. Nice!
In Germany, had the rental Ford Mondeo 2 litre petrol wagon up to 203km/h on the Autobahn (loaded with four big blokes and all their kit plus about 50 cans of beer)

Hmmm… The throaty ‘duga-duga’ of a Britten.
I’ve seen his travel photo’s Mish Mash ….
The lucky bugger got a private tour of the Ducatti showroom to as I recall.Re: 650 Honda Dominator (big trail bike on steroids) 140 on gravel..
