I'll order 2 when I get back to the UK, one for me and one for <jonnyvegas>me Monkey</jonnyvegas>.

Monkey, what happened? Surely the Pan vs GT2RS has shown you the light?

Has there been any follow up to this story? I'd be interested to hear of Chris's progress, as would many others i'm sure.

I took my CBT and theory in early July and have my first of 3 DAS days tomorrow, if all goes well on Monday (mod1) i'll be doing my mod2 next Friday. Can't wait.

(cynic head on) PH has had a good bit of mileage out of the original story so maybe it will die a bit of a death now. Having said that, realistically, it will be a mark of C Harris' Esq's intentions & commitment if he does pursue it & update us. He does after all, have a (semi)-proper job which takes up time. wink

i'd have thought he'd want to see it through.

yikes

The First Rule of Fight Club.....

I love wheels: skateboard, bicycle, scooter, motorbike and car, etc. And they all share a few things in common, ranging from being fun, to being dangerous and all are equally often ridden/driven by morons as much as (or more than really) pros.

Haven't read this thread in its entirety, but can get the idea. I treat ALL road users with equal fear and contempt. Other cyclists and motorbike riders are as dangerous as cars. No matter what, even in my car, I like to stay clear of other road users, and drive defensively, just as I do on my motorbike.

Welcome to the biking world Chris. Its just another chapter to write in the book of speed.

More than likely just massive business. He's stretched thin already. I'll give him a nudge but I'm sure he'll come back to the story in due course.

Come on Chris, get an update, even if it's just to tell us you tried & failed to learn the finer art of biking wink

Me too. Want to hear what this aggressive behaviour is in his part of the world. Overtaking? Not being held up on an A road?

I think Monkey is intelligent enough to enjoy a bike for what it serves up and big enough to admit he loves it if he 'gets it'.

So, stop jodrelling, Chris, and tell how you are getting on. 1,000bhp per tonne is only a test away smile
