@Steve_Flau It was the way of the times 😱 The beach photo is the least of it - Team Oaf's Bol trip ended with riot cops, CS gas, truncheons, broken bones. And that's just the printable bits 🙄

@gone2ray @Josesan67864527 @NugiePratomo @motomatters @McLarenMotoGP @denkmit Cal told us he knew the tyre had chunked. Riders know what this feels like and it's many times worse than an out-of-balance wheel. VR had a tyre chunk at Brno in 2002. He...

@RobMorgan6 @JLemo1974 @NugiePratomo @motomatters @McLarenMotoGP @denkmit Yes, Cal definitely knew. Big vibration. He said it wasn't a nice experience - rocking along at 220mph and hoping for the best #ballsofsteel

@NugiePratomo @motomatters @McLarenMotoGP @denkmit I'm not a tyre engineer, but the fact that the tyre lost a chunk of rubber and didn't continue to delaminate is quite impressive

@SteffanBow @motomatters Can’t remember off the top of my head. But I think there was a moment where the exact NSR frame that Okada liked got mislaid in the system. Racing can be a weird thing

Love these pictures of @FIM_EWC racing with @ChrysalisRacing back in the 80's. A sleeping rider and his tired wife/team boss, an interpreter between an English and Belgian rider, busy night pit-stop and an all-action day equivalent. Great days! https://t.co/TF28zQ2Zmu Mat Oxley Retweeted

HEARTBREAKING: Sharks often have their fins cut off while still alive, then are tossed overboard.
They can no longer swim, so they sink to the bottom of the #ocean and die slowly of suffocation or are eaten by other predators.
