  5. It’s geese they get here, same as in the video everyone’s seen.

    They don’t seem phased at all by vehicles passing closely at speed.

  7. Ooof, that's a big lump of bird... Perhaps they aren't phased by you... But I'd be phased by them. Especially if they decide to come through my wind shield at 160mph! I've had a bumble bee smacking into my bicep at 160 and that got my attention. I wouldn't fancy the same scenario with an ostrich or whatever it is...

  8. @Monners had a great pic of them lined up across the track and having to pick you gap thru them :astonished:

  10. Epic track, I reckon it’s up there with Mugello for best we’ve been to.

    The geese own the place! They don’t move at all. They just stare at you as you fly by!

  14. That’s me - thankful it was a seagul rather than goose. I hit it coming out of the last corner and thought it had bounced off, so I carried right on to the end of the session. Didn’t realise I had a bird on the front till later. Will find the video and upload after beer o’clock has ended.

  19. Don't worry, they're a typical Aussie, loud, annoying, common and nasty. They dive-bomb you and try to get you with their wing spur...….
