Dream vacation ruined
« on: August 26, 2008, 02:46:09 PM »
Imagine this.  You've scrimped and saved for a vacation to Germany.  You rent yourself a nice sporty bike to tear up some twisty roads.  You can't pass up the oppurtunity to run laps on the famous Nurburgring.  You're out there crankin' & bankin' at your best... when all of the sudden you look in your mirrors and see nothing but a big, silver, diesel powered Ford Transport van, with a half crazed, but gorgeous, blonde yelling at you, beating on her steering wheel for you to get out of her way. 

Here's the video with her side of the story:

I bet that rider's riding pals will never let him live that down... even if she is "Queen of the 'Ring."

Even "Mr. Hayabusa" had a hard time beating her - but she was in something a little faster than a van this time:

I saw her on Top Gear.  That was one scary ride.  She's cute too.
