I met those girls last August when I went to a British Superbike race. A memorable day...............I got a rear wheel puncture at just over 100 mph.

Not really, I managed to stay on the bike although it was weaving around a little. Had it been the front tyre it would have been a different story.

I'm with you, Daren. I don't like to go any faster on two wheels than I can peddle - uphill.

To be honest I think it's something you grow up with. If you have always been used to it there's no problem. The back of the bike began to weave around and I actually accelerated it a hope to stop it. Unfortunately it got worse. I have done quite a lot of dirtbike riding and was used to the back end moving around so was not phased. Which is more than I can say for the guy who was behind me. He thought it looked pretty horrific. I can't wait to get back on my bike because I need to scrub the newness of my new back tyre. Untill this is done you don't have 100% grip.
