this year's "jump on Singapore" is coming up, any1 here going to jump? ...sigh... me still stranded here...

[Throttle]

i dont have a current licence to jump, i have even sold my ZX9R and officially not longer a biker at this stage.

 

today i'm going to look for another bike.....

no not the new zx10r but an old Triumph Thunderbird.

 

guess my adventure days are more or less over, i just sit back with a cigar in my mouth

[Throttle]

I hope to hear that you will be jumping this year

all the best Comics!

[comics00]

i will continue jumping but onli here in N Carolina. can't make it for "jump in SG" 'cos me coming home onli late sept (date still no comfirm )

btw if u go there look out for my buddies from the local free-fall team "V-MAX" i dare to say if they admit no.2 in our region nobody dare admit no.1 most of them started jump abt same time as me, some even later then me. they r really good that i cant even pass their selection into the team

 

*that guy on the rite with that cigar in his mouth very farmiliar...u know him?
