Hi Rod, Great to see motorbikes getting some coverage, as ardent official fan club members of Valentino Rossi these guys are hot. What about the Dainese airbag suits trialed by Valentino and Jorge at Donnington Park this year and hopefully all riders will be able to have in 2010 an amazing suit. These guys need all the protection they can get and sorry unlike rugby players ride with many injuries to please their fans. We are regular visitors to Phillip Island and have seen what these guys go through to entertain the masses.
