I posted that awhile ago in the Racing Forum under the World Superbike thread.

Combine that video with the earlier one of the MotoGP riders at "The Office" and you get the impression Yamaha is a fun place to work.

I had the good fortune to work for them for three summers in a row at Americade (Demo Ride Leader) and I have to say they do take care of their people, and the folks in the U.S. office at least are good, fun people to be around.

Sorry for the dreaded repost....

Sounds like a great gig, Jaimec!
I just think it's good to see winning racers (Spies, Eslick) be so laid back and cool.

PS: You DO know what the letters "WLF" on Rossi's leathers stand for, right?

The "W" is really "VV". In Italian: "Viva la Figa."

Loosely translated: "Long Live P*ssy"

Makes the end of that video a real double entendre, doesn't it?

Viva La Figa

The "W" representing the two "V"'s in viva.

I don't think he's making that up completely. I bet in the pre-season when he was studying the tracks in preparation he probably used the "animal shapes" trick as a mnemonic device to memorize the layout of all the tracks.
