Moto Expo Brisbane ticket giveaway contest

[Phill Andera]

Hey everyone

I've recently won two tickets to the Brisbane Moto Expo being held at the RNA Showgrounds on 21 - 23 March 2014.

Therefore I'm offering one ticket up as a prize. Should be a great day with heaps on show and probably good material for a possible vlog.

To enter, watch the vlog, give it a like on YouTube and leave a comment. I'll place the nominees into a hat and announce the winner next Friday (14 March 2014).

Cheers

Phill

Ah...my old stomping ground. I grew up in the Sth East. Not too far for a trip up. You'll certainly make it in time and think of the vlog series that you could make on the way!!

Think of all the practice he would've had by the time he reached the land of sun.

I'm guessing our wobbly friend may just be an expert by the time this trip is up. Some rumours suggest he may reach the level of Casey Stoner mark 2!

That's why I referred to it as patting a tree!

Sooooo....when you superman'd it into the blackberry bush, would it be fair to say that you jizzed 'JANXED' yourself?

LOL

No ..... Janx is often referred to like in 'old janx sprit' ... Jinx is jinx ...

And when I hit the electric fence wire across the farm track (not powered that day thankfully!) at 50k (heavy/extreme braking from 110) ... The bike stopped... I 'decided' I should keep going for another 5 metres through the air, to the side a little... OVER a 4 strand barbed wire fence .... Did a forward tumble with more luck than skill ... And landed in the middle of the only blackberry bush in the surrounding 1000 acres of paddock!

Fairly 'soft' landing actually ... The berry canes kinda cushioned me to the ground.... The thorns ripped into my back and legs pretty well ... And it took a long time to stop getting little pus blisters on the punctures that would pop out a thorn tip when squeezed .... But much rather that than gut myself on the barb wire .. Or break a limb on impact with ground or fence post....

I'm not advocating crashing into blackberries here!! .. Just in the circumstances it was sheer bloody good (but painful) fortune that I landed where I did!

That's actually a pretty decent story. In our community, you often hear 'hero's' sharing their war tales but that one is worth re-telling.

For me, my 'incidentals' as I refer to them are relatively tame. Their was the one time in Japan that I low-sided a fat chick I was riding to avoid a silly cow on her mumma-charley (lady's bicycle in Japan) that flew out in front of me. I was so angry once I picked myself up that I picked the bloody scooter up and threw it off the road! LOL

The lady freaked, thought that the gaijin had turned into the Incredible Hulk and skedaddled out of there.
