Huge lean angles, powerslides and impressive power wheelies; these radio controlled motorcycle racers are absolutely stunning to watch as they do battle round what I presume is a go-kart track. Get involved at the British Radio Car Association website if you’re interested.

I hope this guy’s got some serious riding chops to get him out of a snag if some blind cager makes a mis-steak. He’s hot-dogging around on Melbourne’s Eastern Freeway, presumably coming home from an Australia Day party, with a barbecue slung over his body and the grill across his visor like a medieval jousting helmet.
Naturally the media think he’s a dangerous idiot, but clearly they don’t know how bikers roll in other parts of the world. Personally I think all he needs is some corks hanging off his helmet and an open can of Foster’s to make him Australian of the year.
Update: As it turns out, our BBQ man is embarrassed that this picture has caused so much fuss. But then, he’s also keen to let people know that this barby, which he found in hard rubbish, isn’t the biggest thing he’s carried on his bike… In fact, he once made it home with a two-seater couch strapped to the back. Sorry mate, that doesn’t take the prize for me. In Hanoi I once saw a guy with a two-seater couch and two one-seater couches all strapped up and balanced on the back of a 125cc scooter and lurching through traffic. Keep trying!
