bad...<br />

This is the story of how triple World SuperBike Champion Troy Bayliss<br />
NEARLY got beaten mano-a-mano by a Silverback from <strong>RUST</strong>…<br />
QUADS HAVE BEEN in the news lately, sadly for all the wrong reasons.<br />
Living and trail riding in rural Kent in South East England, I see a lot of them<br />
on the byways and highways and tear-arsing around field headlands. You<br />
know those bits round the edge of fields, which - if a certain width - farmers<br />
can claim a wildlife subsidy for. I’ve never quite been comfortable with the<br />
concept. Of either as a matter of fact... Quads, or the subsidy.<br />
This is partly as a result of personal experience and partly due to the type<br />
of riders they attract. Ironically quad riders may well qualify as wildlife - and<br />
possibly endangered at that. They’re certainly off the evolutionary scale<br />
when it comes to sporting activities. In terms of the sheer skill required, most<br />
people would probably agree that trials riders would be atop the evolutionary<br />
dirt biking tree followed by enduro and motocross riders and then grasstrackers<br />
then come the sidecar versions (in the same order) with quads bringing<br />
up the rear.
