And like to play the video games of these motorcycle sports. i also enjoy drawing ideas either for bikes or cars and or gear... relax time is dining with friends

Quiet time is spent reading.

I love motorcycles. i am so mezmorised at how dynamically the pilots maneuver their machines; 200 plus mph on the worlds circuits. and to the height and distance the dirt bikes reach! all that requires some serious thought in designing

And building the best gear they will wear... i watch the races
