Pretty funny! As posted to another forum I'm on.

from ocau.mc forum member Coopz.

"Pics I took on Sunday.
What happens when Nicky Haydens Honda breaks down, marshalls put it on a trailer, start driving full speed back to pits only to get blocked by another vehicle causing the driver to stop, right by the spectator mound where Coopz and his semi drunken friends are standing..."

And just because the forum won't allow more than five images in any one post - this is as close as you get to a victory lap at PI :)

I wonder if the on-board image feed from "Ass-Cam" was still running in the Repsol pit? LOL

He looks stocky, but I'm guessing based on this pic that he's well under 6' in height - whatever, he certainly makes the RC212V look like a 125...

Well, he looks like a six footer to me, it's just that his legs don't reach the ground. :)

That bike really is teeny though.

I'd never have the guts to do that. Although maybe if I'd been drinking all day like that guy probably had.

I seem to remember some pics were the marshalls were taking turns sitting on the bike and taking pics of each other. was that at PI or some other GP Nicky retired?

:up: to him for doing it, thats probably the closest any one of us will get to riding a MotoGP bike

I think six footer is the most ideal shape, more than it would spend more space for housing, public service, etc :)
