Ditto, scary things those...you can do everything right and then an idiot driving a car on the road takes you out cause he did not see you. Nah I'll stick to my micro, its safer, slower, and less idiots in the sky.

Remember Honda's old strap line - If you don't have wings you will never fly.

A mate of mine sold his Honda to buy his first aircraft. Do you think what Honda had in mind? :wink: :lol:

!!!! Nice toy Chaz. It is interesting to hear different views on both Trikes and Motorbikes. A guy that I am studying with is passionate about bikes, he owns a super bike which he races with and also a trail bike. When I mentioned that I wanted to start my MPL on trikes he thought I was crazy (**) . He said that trikes were far too dangerous -xX . Go figure :!:

Heya Folks :!: :!: :!:

Wish i had the passion for flying as i did for mtorcycles !! Ive been riding bikes for about 30 years now and have had numerous and various machines. From boring ol superbikes to turbo charged bikes. Slysi you right. While i was flying i met one of my old biker mates and when i told him come fly he asked me outright if im mad. Perceptions obviuosly vary and as Rudi says you do everything right and a motorist takes you out on a bike

. I have been fortunate over the years and you do seem to develop a sort of 6TH sense while riding bikes which has saved me many a time mainly Taxis. KB i have more than enough ground speed maybe i should be a pioneer and start Fly-Bikes.

Hi Chaz,

Five bucks says that I will pin your G@T on the sight screen at Kyalami on Saturday. :lol: :lol:

Paid two-and-a-half bar for my Lamborghini and ‘cos she is still under warranty, I won’t go much past 335 kph yet.

Shall we meet at say 09h00?

OK - end of dream - get back to work.
