By Colin Goodwin on 01/07/2005 14:09:10
Poking death with a stick then running away scared, our four intrepid testers take on the Nurburgring armed with four sports tourers, BMW R1200 ST, Ducati ST3, Honda VFR800 and Triumph Sprint ST
.Urry is worried about Ring Bores. They're not some nasty parasite that nibble their way through the body from the basement. No, they're worse than that. Ring Bores are people who cannot stop talking about the Nurburgring. They speak in sentences laced
