I think this is a great pics: great bike, great bend, great rider (actually a racer).
He's a friend of mine (an ex if I have to be sincere) testing in Valencia...I was riding there too. When he passed me I noticed it a couple of turns after..just felt the wind! :D

Pretty good but hes no Jake Zemke :bows: These are the top three racers in the AMA Superbike circuit. The rider adorned in his traditional red honda CBR 1000RR is Miguel Duhamel and the rider adorned in blue rides a suzuki gsx r 1000 and is no other then Matt Mladin.

Hehee great pic of Jake! :D
The one in my pics is in the world SBK classification.
I don't know who's the faster, but...I don't care! :D
I posted it cause he was scanning the pics on my pc (actually looking for some pics of myself on his bike) and found this one...he's a suzuki rider, so I'm in topic heheheeh ;)

Sorry, bro, but nowhere did she say in the topic "hey everyone, post pics that you found on the internet of people you don't know". j/k Lighten up, man, I didn't mean it to be harsh. :)

I couldn't find rider number 146 on the SBK site. I must have been looking in the wrong place. He is railing there though! Holy crap! I saw the SBK riders at Laguna Seca last month. WHAT A BLAST! They were riding their asses off. We had a real good time there. See pics below:



The SBK "psychedelic snake" working it's way through the corkscrew.



AMA boys going through the corkscrew.



Me w/my 1100 streetbike (oops . . . dinosaur) ready to roll.

Hahah just ask me! Here's the rider on the pic I've posted:
http://www.superbike.it/conduttori.asp?p_S_Campionato=SBK&p_Conduttore=1089
He's got n. 45 on the 4 races he did at the World SBK Champ.
He's got n. 2 on the Italian SBK Champ.
That 146 number was a crap number they gave him in Valencia while testing (there were 'unofficial races' during those practicing days).
Here's him at Vallelunga during the Italian SBK

I think you somehow got the spirit I've posted that pic here :)
I know better Italian riders (Pedercini and Borciani to name a couple), but this guy was a kind of inspiration for me, cause we've been together for a while and I've learned many things about the racing world through him (good and bad). He never taught me how to ride fast, though heheehhe

Well what did he teach you then? Inquiring minds are dying to know. Nut, get your mind out of the gutter.
YOU get your mind out of the gutter, you bad! :p
I was being serious...observing him and his life as a racer I've learned many things. I don't want to bore you with a detailed description of what I think I've learned, but I think those things will slowly come out in my posts...
FYI i was actually referring to motorcycle-related things.

(now you made me wonder if he taught me "something else"....LOL, but no, I don't think so...even though when I happen to meet him I like pretty much to review a few subjects...;) )

I was being serious too. No gutter thoughts on this side of the keyboard. I think there's some on yours though. Just an observation. 8)

I bet you do know some great riders/racers. My comment was towards Novaz. He sometimes reminds me of a kid I knew. Everytime someone told a story, this kid had a better one. It was like he thought he had to speak everytime someone else was quiet. BTW, we were never impressed by his "extra" stories.
