Hi David. Welcome to the forum. Enjoy the HRC. Don't forget to post pics when you get her or the hounds will be let off their leash
Hey, yeh its big hey, loads of sbk riders, we have some nice tracks also. Kyalami is prob the best know, we have had WSBK here a few times and even MotoGP at Phakiza raceway.
Welcome to the forum, I look forward to seeing some pics of your new bike I used to work with a SA motorbike Technician, he was from your area too.....we called him the Durbanator He said the bike scene was good over there too.
Hiya David, Welcome aboard. Years ago I had the chance to move with the job to J'burg for a 3 year ex pat contract which would have meant the next move would have been to North East Australia which was the one I really wanted and it was all going ahead and about to sign contacts until my bloody uncle who had an office in SA put a spanner in the works by telling my ex wife that his company house outside J'Burg had been robbed at gun point twice, had a safety room and that he had to have a security guard installed, and that his Jaguar had been car jacked close to the city centre and a few other choice horror stories. That was that, game over. We are not going to take two small children to a place like that. End of discussion; don’t want to hear another word about it. And that my friend is why I am still stuck in this cold and wet god forsaken country for another five years until I take early retirement. On a much better note I worked very closely with a SA guy in London for a while and I have never meet a fella with such a great outlook on life and his sense of humour used to crack me up. Hope you enjoy the blade when you get it and again very welcome to the forum.
Spitting Image once sang "I've never met a nice South African"...... which is a tad harsh, coz I've known loads of them, and they're all damn fine fellows. My problem is though, when drunk, I have to badger South Africans into shouting "DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY" at the top of their voice...... gets me every time Any-hoo, welcome along!
