lanesra 3,994 Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 (edited) good topic and some good healthy banter, think we all agree those who have what it takes to race bikes at whatever standard deserve a lot off credit and total respect !edited to add i love watchin road racin but have never had the bottle to race a bike , the thought terrifies me Edited August 16, 2010 by lanesra Quote Link to post Share on other sites

After a injury like that a lot of us lesser mortals would jack the bikes in! Respect to each and every racer out there! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
