acupuncture may have been better than a massage. Jeez that's foreplay rather than medicinal

I was told to do some stretches and ..... And guess where I'm scheduled to go tomorrow. Universal Studios. Got Er indoors family over and it appears my crippled ... is not enough of an excuse not to host them. So I'm gonna try your scam.

Btw, I consulted with GatorDuc. ...... said to get off my ... and get mobil. I guess thats what will make it better. Damn, I was starting to like getting all the sympathy and breakfast in bed and .....

 

[Jumkie]

Aside from all the other .... going on I have to say Amazing ride by Spies. And .... all y'all that come out talking .... about him after this race. He should have come in to the pits after his tire chunked away like another rider did but he gutted it out. He easily had Dovi and everyone is quick to cast judgement before the fact come out.

I like your fire. Gonna join us at Laguna this year? <cue up crickets>

Stretches are good for sciatica but more to prevent re-occurrence than relief when suffering. You can get that stuff in usa. quick google search.

Gaz, that quote reeks of Stoner's name engraving. You stuck on the word "if"? Well no ...., its not actually Kropo going himself to chisel the name onto the trophy buddy. Read between the not so subtle lines. Seriously, we debating this? Its overwhelming positive, just like his article after Jerez and Estoril. What are you expecting, for Kropo to post a picture with him inscribing Stoner on the sheetmetal?

Jumkie, I seem to recall a number of threads last year (and some involving yourself) where it was stated outright that the real meaning of the word was the crucial component to all statements ................ and in this case the word IF is critical to Krop's statements.



Yes, it is a very positive Stoner spin (and being fair to Krop, I do see him as one of teh more positive towards Stoner in his articles than many other commentators) but he still caters for the doubt by the statement about Honda needing to sort their issues in order for it to be a 'certainty' (my wording)

Bad backs are a real pain Jums, so look after it, yourself and take it easy mate ..........................

I'm drunk right now

Not going to Guna this year I think, money is really tight right now.

 

[Arrabbiata1]

Hahaha, oh yeah. I wouldn't call it a "torpedo though, more like 'Intercontinental Missile'. That was crazy. I'm gonna look for a pic. Who was the other Duc rider, it was a sat Duc as I remember. Crazy ...., flight through the air and landing on the other guy's back as I recall. But that was during a practice, not a race, right.



Gaz, not of the epic nature we are accustom to remembering. Most the .... we remember is so bone headed that people recall for a while.



Found it. German qual. Highsides in the wet, and landed on the other guy's back. hahaha

Sweet, found a video. But i gotta say, it was DeAngelis (fruity helmet mf) he hit, so its ok. In fact, they should give Nicky some kind of reward.

When I read Gaz's post this immediately sprang to mind too. I remember it well - 2009 practice at Sachsenring. It wasn't DeAngelis...although you can see him down at the the start of the clip from another incident...you were originally right - it was the Pramac Ducati rider Nicolo Canepa.



The biggest high side I think I've seen at Sachsenring was Carlos Checa in 2005 qualifying also on the Ducati. I remember the red marks left from his leathers down the waterfall.

Thanks. I will admit, I was hard pressed to communicate with the fuckers. I went in to buy the Magic Juice, they sold me on a massage.

Jumkie, I seem to recall ...

Ok, Kropo is scribing Stoner's name on the 2012 trophy...again, but he is using a dry erase marker.



Happy?

Backs are evil.

I can't really afford it, but I'll pay for half your three day pass (maybe somebody else here can cover the other half) and I'll throw in a paddock pass.



EDIT: the last pill is now kicking in, good night Irene.

Core body strength physiotherapy when (and if ) the acute episode is over. Acupuncture or anything else that might help you acutely, no-one really knows. Local anaesthetic and steroid injection even, to break the cycle.

Jum, I can send you a hallucinogenic toad to lick. They're all over the place this time of year.

I promoise you won't feel a thing!

Sorry if it's wooshed me, but what exactly is the problem? Sciatica, highly pissed off back muscles, or ?



Best wishes, dude!

Hallucinogenic frog, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm........

No way should he get a new engine. Tough .....

I would say the same no matter who was torped.

ok ladies photo shop time

Opinion very much rests upon the profile of the series and the riders involved. Admittedly nowhere are the stakes any higher than Moto GP, but there was practically no mention on here of Zarco's outrageous move on Gino Rea at Le Mans - but the lynch mob was out again following Marquez's later misdemeanour involving Espagaro - something I don't think was either calculated nor he was he culpable over.



Those of you who called for a race ban following Stoner's dead arm on Depuniet - without spoiling a thing, check out a race just run today from Aragon if you can.

Just saw that as well.

Not sure how, seeing Lorenzo virtually didn't get a chance to race.

If he did he would probably have a 30 point lead as we speak.

Sachsenring is a track Pedrosa usually excels at. It will be interesting to see if he can get his first win for the year here.

If he doesn't win here he may not win anywhere in 2012. It's also a track that tends to be hard on tyres. We should learn a lot from next weekend.

My thoughts precisely.

 

[hawkdriver]

I'd like to see him get an engine for the sake of the championship, but at the same time they wanted these rues so .... em. No championship is gonna come easy and they all have to overcome challenges as the season goes on, Casey had his problems at the beginning and now Jlo has his.

 

[#22]

All I was thinking about was Lorenzo's leg...so similar to the WSBK crash at Monxa that effectively ended Max Neukirchner's career. I'm relieved J-Lo was able to walk away..
