Ha! :D PMSL - the rotten bumpy roads around Bournemouth always send my front wheel skywards, especially when cracking off roundabouts and the like!

But then - that's why the Fireystorm is such good fun!

At the time I was just hoping I had enough grunt to pass the kid in the Mini .Surprised me how quick BMW Minis are.

a mini turned in on me while i was leant over the other day & apparently i clipped him with my left can.... i didnt know til the lads told me.
apparently he tried to chase me and cut another lad up as well. Richard.
