Title: Most uncool pics of yourself on a bike.
Post by: smed on September 22, 2012, 05:58:38 pm
This is mine on my bro's CT90 steppy,there was an even worse one that day of me holding a plastic gun & aiming at the camera,but thankfully it no longer exists :D (http://i1266.photobucket.com/albums/jj529/smed45/supercross037_zpsf89d2558.jpg)

Not true, Hoony. 99% of photos of me make me look like a fat git riding to the shops - even when I'm riding well, and think people could confuse me with Stephen Gall.
It's disappointing, but I take comfort in the knowledge that Twistandshout is even less photogenic.

Wow! Isn't that an inverted superman with a 360? You, sir, were a freestyler before the kids got into it with all the namby pamby ramps etc. Did you get the full rotation?

I'm with Nathan. Pretty much every photo ever taken of me riding make me look like I can't ride out of sight on a dark night. Fair enough i guess - I can't!

Here's a photo of me taken during a dedicated photo session. In this pic, I have slammed into the berm, gassed it hard and rocketed out with the front wheel pawing the air. James Stewart would have been impressed. Or so it seemed in my mind...

Not dorky or totally bone breaking,just a photo used by my kids whenever I started to lecture them on being responsible and taking time and care to do things properly .... they found this one early morning when about to load up and go to a meeting after I had a long night session with mate Steve.

Hahaha - you want uncool??   ;D

How about this one of me at the start of my very first Enduro..  Canungra (QLD), January 1981..  It was the week before my 17th Birthday, and I was riding on a Learners Permit...  Since learners were supposed to be supervised all the time, and I was on the same minute as the Queensland 125cc Enduro Champion (Geoff Petler), he agreed to supervise me....

That lasted for all of 100 metres...   ::)

Hahaha - that brings back memories Brad!

Channel 7 was big on promo's for kids back in the 70's...

I remember when Battlestar Galactica came out, we had a Cylon outfit and Colonial Viper Pilots uniform to use at school sports events etc..

I got to wear the Colonial Viper Pilots uniform all the time because Channel 7 didn't supply any boots with the uniform, and I had my own pair of Sidi Joel Robert boots...  (that's what the pilots wore in the original TV series)..

Got to wear the Cylon outfit once or twice too, just for a change..  You used to actually look through small holes in the grill where the Cylons "mouth" was supposed to be.

Unfortunately, no photos survive.   :'(
