Cheers ShaneLiberty, I could only go as fast as the two blokes in front of me, and always had to keep one eye on the fact that they kept slowing down or stopping to wave at the crowd, as you can see from the video. Until we got over the mountain, where there were less people, we didn't really get into a rhythm, so to speak.

Holy Throttle Chopper Batman! Was this video about Rossi doing a parade lap or the guy filming being able to do power wheelies and show us how he can't maintain speed?

Potter's Video
Well done Mr. Potter; a video to proudly show your grandchildren. Ahh if it had been me following on my Duke 690, or on my BMW R1150RS; well, I'd have been left for dead. Good riding.

We're working on something with Rossi's bike in conunction with Yamaha but we haven't got it all sorted yet! We'll announce it when it happens, you can be sure of that!
And yeah, Ago's not too rusty for a 67-year-old!
