Cool Pro Bull Riding

Just been watching some of that Pro Bull Riding on the local satellite channel.

There was a massive animal by the name of "Whirlygig". A bloke called Peterson managed to ride Whirlygig for the full 8 seconds before being bucked off.

Whirlygig gave him the ride of his life; bucking, twisting, leaping up and down. Peterson was lucky not to be seriously injured when he dismounted. Whirlygig had a wild look in the eyes and didn't look too happy about him having gone "all the way".

You can check out "Whirlygig's" vital statistics here http://www.pbrnow.com/ridersbulls/bu...l.cfm?ID=10061

I must get out more

"Whirlygig had a wild look in the eyes and didn't look too happy about him having gone "all the way"."

I tell you a personna of many talents is whirlygig, you won't hear much from Sass, he's still layin' in the prickles from the last time he tried to ride something with hair on, --now I wonder???

from what I hear SAS would never make it the full 8 seconds. Could just be girls at the bar badmouthing him though.

As to the rumors of Whirls and men w/ leather, just because you read about it online does that make it true? She seems like the tie and cufflinks type so I'd need to see pictures before I'd believe it.

Now if ya'll ain't tried Rodeo Sex....you shouldn't talk.

The rules of Rodeo style play are pretty simple...the next time you and the Missus get to being rowdy...get a good grip and whisper in her ear how she is so much like her sister in the bed....and see if you can hang on for eight seconds or more.

As to Whirlygig....I think I would rather tangle with that Bull...the image of those nails, go-go boots, green hair and bee hive hairdo scares the bejesus out of me....and I am a hero!

Jayrow

I take it you are fairly new to Rotorheads and don't yet understand the significance of "whirlygig"?

Sorry that I ruined your day by not asking some in depth question about hooke's joint effect but you are free to post such questions yourself?

Lighten up

And it would appear that is the forum you are best suited to.

Bloomin’ ‘eck! I go away for a weekend to Newbury Show wondering if I could take on all the Royal Horse Artilllery (NOT including the horses!) and I find this on my return!

As the vital statistics show – weight unknown (obviously!) and of course I would never divulge my age (oops I have!). The two rides in Reno were the best! That Petersen chap – it was hard work getting him off!

I don’t know whether to be honoured and flattered to have a bull named after me (and he must be named after me as the correct spelling of Whirlygig is actually Whirligig!).

Don’t worry Jayrow Pilot, I’m quite used to the being the “butt” of a few jokes round here! But there’s no need to get tetchy if there happens to be a few “non-heli” threads on Rotorheads. Some helicopter pilots actually like to talk about other things apart from helicopters but most of them are too shy to go to JetBlast!

Cheers

Whirls
