Default Worlds fastest indian
Am watching "The Worlds Fastest Indian" - Scene where Burt's in hospital after a heart attack

Doctor - "I'm afraid your Motorcycling days are over.."
Burt - "Like **** they are!"

HAHAHHAHAHHA what a Hero!

If you don't put an effort into anything you might as well be a vegetable. It's effort and concentration that makes life worth while and nice lady's around is a big help too" - Burt Munro
