Yorkshire Terriers were originally breed as ratting dogs. The bigger one of my two would dispatch a rat in seconds.

Roe Engineering still around, I used to use them when I used to rebuild bike engines, many, many moons ago. Real nuts and bolts outfit, good attitude, good service.

Hopefully all 3 bikes will be well matched, so we have Rossi, Lorenzo and Moaner all dicing with each other and when there is a bit of fairing bashing Moaner can look up complain about Rossi's aggressive overtaking behaviour from 2nd or 3rd position on the podium. 
Or even better from 4th where Cal Crutchlow, nicked 3rd on the last corner from Moaner.
In case you haven't guessed, I'm not a fan of Moaner, absolutely brilliant rider with the all the great personalty of a slug.
Moaner has never learnt he's in the entertainment business, which Rossi learnt with his unique celebrations along time ago and he knows how to laugh at himself, like the donkey on his helmet after he had stupidly crashed in the previous race.
I agree that Pedrosa is accident injury prone and it a bit to weak to be total boss of a 1000, but he knows how to win as he has in this class and he is an ex-250 world champion.

Ducati has brand new twin spar aluminium frame, which Rossi is claiming is far better and he praised the fact making normal setup changes is making it go faster, rather than last year where it often went slower! So with any luck it will be competitive and then there is the Rossi factor, Hayden was 10th today!
Larenzo is claiming a big improvement with his Yamaha and he wasn't that far behind Casey Moaner, until he was injured last year. If Pedrosa doesn't get injured he will give Moaner a run for his money too.

I agree retarded idiot, we have them in England too, where they try to outrun the police in high speed chases. Police normally use a police helicopter to track the car, to stop escaping and also use stinger devices to deflate the tyres. Some are so retarded, they will bait the police to start a high speed chase, relying on their knowledge of the area to escape and by abandoning the stolen vehicle quickly, before a helicopter can be used. Another tactic is for them to reverse into a police car, to break the radiator, so they can't continue the chase.
In Ukraine when there is a traffic queue, you get idiots that take to the pavement, with pedestrians jumping out of the way for their lives. I can't understand the mentality of risking peoples lives to save a few seconds.
It is not considered 'manly' to use a seat belt in the Ukraine, so people generally don't and the standards of driving are very poor compared to the UK! Hence, between 70000 and 8000 people are killed on Ukraine's roads every year, with a population of 47 millions and about a 10th of the UK's car ownership levels. where in the UK we have a population of 62 million and just over 2000 deaths per year on the roads.

The men in some east European countries have still got a life is cheap attitude. Where the reality is the opposite where the emotional and financial investment by parents is considerable and also by the state with the cost of education. 
This is a big problem in Ukraine where men seem to be very good at killing themselves in accidents (especially in vehicles), committing suicide or dying from drink or drugs. Hence there are only 85 men for every 100 women, men live to an average age of 61 and women 72.
Mind you it is a male trait worldwide as many more men are killed in accidents compared to women and about 98% of dangerous driving prosecutions in the UK are men!

You can put anybody into a class, but you can't put the class into anybody.
