Yeah...and the reporter, Avril Foujour.
How is your Fraaanch? Sounds like "April FoolDay" to me. Nice touch.

So yeah, probably all true...

Bombarider...Bomba_Rider - rider of the bomb.

Read... it... more... s l o w l y

When it came out in April, I thought the Bombarider play on Bombardier was pretty clever.

It was pretty in depth. Just a damn question. Ever hear of viral information? who's to say they are not in the works with the venture right now and are releasing spoofs like this article and the new video
of the 1190 with fans and turn signals to raise interest for the eventual release of something new. This forum is turning into a bunch of pricks who can't answer a question without being a smart ass or disrespectful. Some peoples children.

You asked your question, you got your answer. Only one here acting like a prick is you.

A simple yes or no would be sufficient. Just trying to start a conversation that probably has truth in it, just not the details in that release. I would sure hope they wouldn't call their flagship bike the stratosphere. Just trying to start a conversation. It's just the way people reply to harmless threads with total disregrad to the person that wrote it. I work all the time and when I catch wind of something, I wanna know everything about It I can.

I don't understand your problem.. You asked the question and had legitimate responses, which particular response was it that you've taken offence to as I can't see one?

You then seem to imply that those responding were pricks, why ask a question and then call the respondants names?

I thought the reporter's name in the article was a good touch too, a little unsubtle but funny all the same.

The latest RRW article is something I suspect you'd be interested in, much more likely to be accurate : )

Ok. Maybe I took a lil too far with the pricks but I wasn't exactly referring to just this thread. I was referring to the one that had to bring Jesus in the conversation. All the other ones was ok, Joking about the authors name. My bad, I ran into an actual prick a while back. I apologize.

Must...Not... Comment....on "I ran into an actual prick a while back".....!

See! I'm so proud of myself. My brain/keyboard filter is back online!


Just kidding JB26. That got me hook line and sinker when it came out 4.1.10. It was early in the morning, I wasn't caffinated yet, and kapowie!

That was really well done.

WWHSD: I think a Ulysses with the hard sided bags. How else would he carry his hammer, saw, and square?
