You're no fun, Doug. I often get asked to race - old fart on an old farty bike is an easy target. I _always_ accept, with the proviso that I choose the destination. If I've got a Russian visa in my passport, I choose Moscow. Otherwise it will be somewhere in Poland that they've never heard of and couldn't write down. As it registers on their face, I move off. I've had one guy loop it trying to get away before me in a paddy and more than one end up spinning. Then they come hurtling past me, gesticulating, as I laugh - open face helmets are good for letting the opposition know what you think of them.... mike ----------------------------------------- Email sent from www.ntlworld.com virus-checked using McAfee(R) Software visit www.ntlworld.com/security for more information
