The IAM school of overtaking !!!

#1 Post by DavShill » Sat Apr 12, 2008 6:56 pm

Is this what IAM call "making good progress" and making the most of "overtaking opportunities"???

I bet they'd tell him off for not wearing the right kit though.

Incorrect kit,
Too fast entering the Roundabout,
Just missed the Renault 5,
Then just after the Red Bull rider.. the almost highsiding it ...

Other than that, a very good ride Sir, Congratulations and here's your badge...

Thoroughly enjoyed watching that :smt003

Rather them than me though.

Got to admire the skill but he ain't gonna live long me thinks. :smt010
I have made a few IAM rides one or two with people that could handel a bike but I for one wouldn't even try to stay with him on a road like that one. :smt002

Crayzee !!

They must have waited at the top for the Red Bull guy just so they could 'do' him again. And that other guy in the shorts they passed had no idea what he was doing did he? Braking all over the place.

I got the feeling that the lead guy was holding back for the camera man so he'd be in shot more.

Enjoyed watching the half in the mountains - it is really nice to get through these roads at a certain speed . Just the guy is a bit maddy!!! In the 1st part, mun neal lost her son a few times to traffic!.

Better seeing this on screen that having that guy in the mirror or just in front though.

That wouldn't be for long, I guess. :smt003

I'm also assuming that horse shit is not a problem there.
