Rowdy Running Score: 5 1/2

frog, freddo

Well........hmmm.........he was on his bike so s'pose that's 6 points, but then, was he on the road? And the degree of difficulty? One definition in the dictionary says " frog (Railroads), a frog adapted for tracks that cross at right angles." Interesting.
Will have to await the judges decision on this one!

Controversy reigns! One of our most esteemed judges makes the following comments.

Kaz is a great lover of frogs so this one will have to be passed by her,
However my scoring is as follows.
G. green tree frog. Common name, 1 point.
H. hyla caerulea, Latin name, 1 point
this frog is commonly found in toilets and outhouses, so degree of difficulty will be governed by how hard it is to park in his toilet, I would suggest that if it is a big drop type there could be a downwind allowance to be factored in, however I will not be able to allow for additional points for killing it himself as these animals are self croaking... how about 5 points if we say he knew its name was Kermit.?
PS Kaz said minus 50, but she's fucken biased..

So we'll split the difference and give him 5 1/2!

Duds Running Score: 10 1/2

Kangaroo, Skippy, Roo, Macropod Boomer

Bigfoot, Yowie, Yettie, Narcoonah

Fish, European Carp, Cyprinus carpio

Ok, whilst I'm claiming 5 names I only get half points cause bugga it, it's only half there!

Well, I had just passed a white W model Kenworth road train hauling big time in the opposite direction. Sounded like the sweet sound of a GM465TTA to me. The driver had a wild eyed look about him and was pop-eyed and in clear distress. Then there it was, right there on the side of the road. The very fresh carcase off the illusive yowie!!!!!! I tell you no bull, I near as hell opened the throttle to get outa there as fast as the ole evo could take me. But no....this was roadkill and just too good to miss! Anyway, the poor bugga was clearly dead and I'd already made fresh skiddies in the y-fronts, so hey, what was there to lose! I did however leave the bike running just in case as I took the shot. This of course is the Pilliga Yowie species, the smaller of the 2 typically *sighted* in Australia. No doubt the poor truckie didn't even see him (no skid marks evident other than mine) but the blood curdling scream and the heavy thud must have turned the poor bugga's blood to ice!

And then, on the way home just riding in the group into Griffith, gandering at the sites and taking no notice, I looked down just in time at what they were pointing out. Thunk thunk, and yup, I got myself a fish!!!!! Well this time no skiddies, but we did laugh till the tears came and errrrrr......yup, might have even wet the y-fronts! 4 Wildcats as witnesses! OK, so the kids fishing in the irrigation canal had caught it and thrown it on the road but the bludger was still fresh and hey, I became an Environmentally Friendly Biker in one go! Over to the judges!!!!!!

Score: Regarding the carp, seems you were in the right Plaice to Perch the camera and Snapper picture, I notice you got the Rays of the sun just right to Tailor a good photo without having to Flounder around in your Leatherjacket to do so on a Scale of 1 to 10 you would be right up there if you had been riding a Flathead with a wet T-shirt comp winner as a pillion and were about to Groper at the time, so without coming the raw Prawn and figuring that with witnesses you are not giving us a red Herring I reckon at least 8 points, I hope this warms the Cockles of your heart!

Alan Sciascia - New Zealand Running Score: 7
He writes - Basically, I t-boned a sheep in the dead of night on a back country road.
Was riding my Vulcan at the time and somehow managed to stay upright.
I don't have a photo of the sheep (was too dark) but there is a photo of the
bike covered in sheepshit

Sheep, Lamb, Blonde, Merino, Wooly, Aries

Our first International entry! His story is at http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/~hasl/sheep.htm Now this is a tough one but after due consideration we've decided to give him 6 points. On the face of it he shouldn't have got any because really the victim should have been in the shot. That would have got him 18 points multiplied by the degree of difficulty. Partial remains on the weapon of destruction though do give credence as well as the well documented facts. Now Blonde too isn't really related to sheep, but hey, he's a New Zealander where sheep take on a whole new light to every awakening dawn. But the thing that swayed the judges was that he has admitted to this most serious of New Zealand crimes. As one of the judges said "Yeah I reckon he's fair dinkum and I don't think he's trying to pull the wool over our eyes, cause after all "Shit Happens"
Damn it, if only the victim was there we woulda given him heaps more! Well done ya sick puppy! Ah, what the hell, we'll give him 1 more for puppy too! Total 7.
