Wednesday July 13, 2005 miscellaneous motorbike geek stuff
Bookmarks are so passe, and don't automatically turn into google fodder. So here are a few links which ten years ago I might have bookmarked.
Overview of MotoGP engines (drool. Shame FIM are are going to strangle MotoGP).
Some papers on the physics behind some of the typical loss-of-control scenarios faced by motorbikes: thrust induced highsides (the common reason for "high side" crashes - the most painful way to crash a bike without hitting anything but the ground, see this animated gif for example.), brake induced highside (as can happen when racers "back it in" to a corner, rare type of crash but happens, eg Haga a few seasons ago at Welkom), and another similar paper which also covers "low-side" brake-induced crashes.

Quagga Solaris logical interface patch
There's a tentative patch posted to the Quagga-users list to reconcile zebra's view of interfaces and addresses with how Solaris presents them, particularly with respect to logical interfaces, see [quagga-users 4920]. Feedback would be useful.
