  1. Oh, I dunno; there's probably stairs in the most unlikely places in all
    corners of the world.
    Their time will come, you mark my words.

    She actually said,"...I thought we were going to die" :)

    I know.

    I did a respectable lap in a Ford Orion, that somebody asked me to
    look after, once.

    I've gone for the 'throw it on its side' approach on a trackday (1)
    where I was happy that the run off was ok if it all went wrong but on
    the road I think I'd have been hard on the brakes in the same way as
    Ace was.

    (1) Copse corner at Silverstone when I'd missed the normal braking
    point because I was too busy admiring my new fastest lap. It was only
    the second lap so I really shouldn't have bothered.

    I've googled but I can't find anywhere that says Iraq or Afghanistan
    has invaded the UK.

    Heh, I think James said something similar when I delivered him to
    Bishopscourt.

    Do you have a special tool for splitting those hairs?

    I've always assumed it was their way of stomping on their guilt.

    Symmetrical forks, fixed gear, no brakes by the look of it. Althoug I'd
    imagine she'd be pretty useful on any type of bicycle.

  18. My first thought, too. Well, second, after I'd finished admiring her
    arse.

    Bloody impressive bit of riding, that.

    I stopped using the bridge as the trip point for the lap timer and I
    realised how fast I could get through Copse if I was really trying.

    Every trackday briefing I've been to has included the words "if you
    think you're not going to make it then tip it over more" or similar.
    It's all down to being focused enough at the time to go with that
    theory and I don't think anyone riding to work is going to be at that
    level all the time. I know I wouldn't be.

    Yep.

    I've just done another search and I can't find conclusive proof that
    terrorists sponsored by either of the above countries launched attacks
    on this country before we invaded them.
