one armed guy in the fast group

[cally1066]

I did a track day at Anglesey on Friday and was amazed to see a guy with one arm that was missing at the shoulder in the fast group, unbelievable skill to ride a bike that quick with one arm I thought he was amazing and still cant get my head around it lol

Was he still on a 675 ?

im not sure what bike he was on bob but I think you may be right, I think it was grey or black

If it's the same one I've ridden with over this side of the country and in France and Belgium, he told me he was born with only one arm and just got on with life, credit to him, there's an awful lot of whingers out there moaning about f-all!!!

There was a guy of the same description at the open pit lane at Snetterton earlier this month. Major respect.

I met a young guy at the ring a few years back who had an arm amputated, he was riding a cbr600rr. We got chatting at our hotel, he said the only thing he struggled with was putting his leathers on oh and he wanted to slow the speed of the steering.
Hats off !
