I bet he changed his trousers after that trip.

Makes Alton Towers look a bit like a kiddies' roundabout.

As the same age I don't consider myself in the same geriatric group as portrayed by the article. Now must go and take the motorbike for a good thrashing - oh wait a minute :(

Neither do I and I can still go out on the pushbike and exceed 30 downhill - even on the Brompton. Point well made in the article is that the passenger in this case was probably not 'up for it' but had no realistic opportunity to bale out - well not until he fired the bang seat......

Same here. Dragged the Guzzi out of its hibernation earlier - looks good. Sadly SORN'd it at the end of March. It would be ideal for running chores for those that can't get out, but the risks are too great
