Thanks to Roger for sending us this.
It's all captured on one road, Mulholland Drive, above LA. Californians call sportsbikers 'Squids'. I heard it's because of the noise they make when they hit a canyon wall, but I don't know if that's true.
Anyway, this is hypnotic. G
Can't swear to it but I think, in US biking terms, a "squid" is anyone whose enthusiasm outweighs their talent (as Casey Stoner would put it) and who will look squid-like when the inevitable occurs.
THIS IS THE BLOG OF SIDEBURN MAGAZINE. IF YOU LIKE IT, MAYBE YOU SHOULD BUY A COPY.
Sideburn is a magazine made every few months by Gary Inman, Ben Part and some of the best freelancers in motorcycling. It's a dirty bike lifestyle magazine inspired by oval motorcycle racing, and covers flat track racing, speedway and the road bikes loosely inspired by the racers plus the heroes and zeroes we love.
