High skills, light entertainment and a stunning cameo.

[Mr Gazza]

Not a lot of riding stories this time of year, if indeed anyone rides at all any more?
I found this chappie on YouTube and thought I would share it with you.
He is Craig Rodsmith, an Australian, l assume living in USA. He is clearly a man of great skill, motivation, imagination and great dry humour.
I can listen to his no-nonsense Ossie drawl all day long and he has a kind of strange familiarity, like I've met him before? Unlikely, but maybe something about him reminds me of Francis Rossi or Barry Sheene??
But hey anyone who descibes himself as "Nutty as squirrel sh!t" is okay by me.

I've picked this particular video to share with you because he meets one of his mates at a show at about 6.10. I was blown away and I think you may know the Italian chappie with the boyish good looks??

You don't have to like the bike he's working on by the way, or what he's doing to it, but hopefully you will get his humour and he has done projects with other marques too.

Enjoy.. Answers on a postcard please.

I got as far as 10 mins in and had to pause in order to comment on the triple, unspoken, health and safety lathe thing.
Priceless.

Handy guy, more than a little jealous of the skills and workshop.
