Default Killboy's pics are uploading...

Killboy has updated his blog with this weekend's entry.
killboy.com for the blog entry



I think Raul must have heard the 'killboy never gets any pics of the back of my car' comment!

The previews look good.
I can't wait to see all of them.
It's amazing what happens EVERY WEEKEND out there with bikes going under trucks and what not. I'd hate to come around a corner with a 50+ mph sport bike coming straight for me.

Hold your line and hope they go OVER the car is the only advice I have.

That's exactly what happened to me heading south, 2 turns past where killboy's EVO was parked. I came around a left-hander HAULING ASS, pedal to the floor in 3rd and BAM --- sportbike in my lane passing 3-4 cruisers. I *STOOD* on the brakes and yanked the car off the road to the right. It was certain I was going to hit him otherwise. Despite the nasty scraping sound as the right wheels dropped off the road, there was no aparent damage to the car.

Bryan...so GLAD that turned out OK. Only goes to show what we've known all along; what an AMAZING driver you are!

There is a really nice series from Friday of airgate with a sportbike right behind in tow. Very cool shots.
