I can see a book emerging from this experience: "How to Hot Rod your Bicycle"

Graham Im started to know how Burt Munro (worlds fastest Indian ) felt.
Nifty Its funny you mentioned the bike. When I finally got back up the bikes motor was still running with the back wheel spinning at 100mph.
Im still sore this morning. ;38

Well Ive got 2 weeks to go. I have given up on the motorised bike deal. A week after hitting the pole I got hit by a car at the Elizabeth drive and Cowpasture rd intersection. A guy didnt see me crossing the intersection and drove straight into me. I didnt get hurt but another bike got broken. I managed to straighten the back wheel (it was still heavily buckled) and still get to Milperra only 5 minutes late.
I got another bike after that and then the motor blew up completely coming home from Fairfield on Saturday. I pedalled the last 10 ks home.
These Chinese things are junk.
I just rebuilt my motor on the hydro for the weekend races at Forster. Hopefully I dont blow this one.

Glad you weren't hurt.
