Re: VisorDown. Who was on it?
I was on VD, I must have joined in 2003 because I remember where I was based at the time and joining using the computers where you used to put £1 in and it gave you a certain amount of time, IIRC thirty minutes of ridiculously slow internet speeds.

I found Visordown through The riders Digest which was given out at courier garages - I loitered for a long time then joined in its last days

Wasn't there a young lad who stuck a CR500,or KX500 in a 125 frame? I think he was killed on it later.

SM Spike, and it was a 50 frame. EVERYBODY told him it was a bad idea.Skub wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 3:39 pmWasn't there a young lad who stuck a CR500,or KX500 in a 125 frame? I think he was killed on it later.
There's pushing the envelope, and then rank stupidity. Sadly cost him dearly.

Re: VisorDown. Who was on it?
I was thinking about Supermotospike earlier. Someone mentioned Storm, I think he was a Guardsman, killed on Chelsea Bridge Road. There was Jim in Hong Kong, he was a proper character. There's been a few others.Demannu wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 5:19 pmSM Spike, and it was a 50 frame. EVERYBODY told him it was a bad idea.

Re: VisorDown. Who was on it?
He was from Yorkshire and really missed decent fish n chips. So I always sent him pics when I had them
So I renamed him to wind him up
