Banning rugby from schools?

... like this gets on my nerves. Yes, there's a risk of injury, but the biggest threat to our kids are cars. No calls to ban those. What about all other contact sports, should they go as well? Perhaps I should tell my kids to give up martial arts? Rugby is a good game and should be played.

Re: Rossgo's Saviour!!

Haha that would be good. I don't think I can get discounts on anyone. I heard from one of the staff that what the company give the staff is free track sessions at other tracks. Unsure about any of this need to learn all about what's going on before finding out about the incentives!!

Once was a zero mph crash and the owner was upset they didn't save his fairings (they're obviously not designed to) and the other was a 'my mate crashed and they were rubbish' with no other details.

I saw an advert on a petrol pump when filling up the other day advertising a dash cam avaliable in the shop for £14.99. No wonder they are taking off.

Re: Crash protection
