@stockcar86 That's excellent cooperation and awareness. Lane filtering is relatively new here. On a daily basis I'll pass other motorcyclists who are prepared to sit in traffic. Watching vidblogs, particularly London bikers and you see some great low speed filtering. It's a bit different where I am, having to continuously remind myself that at 25% more than the speed limit, the law only permits lane filtering to 30km/h.

must be some pretty nasty injuries in this cheese roll, surely?

Dude who looks like he has a Kiwis jersey on is pretty bouncy!

They tried to ban it, but the Gloucestershire cheese roll took place over the weekend, and these were some of the best wipeouts! 😮😮😮 Featuring Supreme Patty.

@taniwharugby Some of those people have a real disregard for their own well-being.

Not many people have ever heard of Johnny Torrio. He might just be the greatest mobster who ever lived.

(I watch all of the Bloodletters & Badmen youtube channel videos detailing mafia history. Highly recommend, and the narrators’ voice is perfect.)

Except for everyone who has seen Boardwalk Empire.

@taniwharugby Marc Ellis and Matthew Ridge entered that cheese rolling contest back when they had their TV show.

Ellis won the thing - just launched himself with zero fear. Ridge was caught napping by the way Ellis came out of the blocks.

Having visited the Las Vegas Madam Tussauds I can vouch just how life like the statues are.
Though wouldn’t likely go that far..

@no-quarter I had one of those moments with Ms Cato No1. Didn’t know I could move that fast.
