Found this article on the MC news website:
"The Benelli Tornado 900cc was certainly true to name on Saturday 21st June, it’s first day of demo rides for A1 Motorcycles.
To set the tone for the day the first rider out, Craig, returned with half the Victoria Police Force in pursuit. To his credit he copped it sweet and will be having a 6 month break from riding for his troubles.
Craig also races cars and bikes in his spare time so said he didn’t mind too much as he could still race the Benelli Tornado around a racetrack during his enforced layoff.
Craig will be receiving a copy of the attached photo for his album, showing his ‘triumphant’ return complete with pursuit car, bike and paddy wagon. Unfortunately the police chopper was just out of the picture.
Craig swears he had no idea he was being pursued but admitted being relieved when he was told his fine was for being clocked at a top speed of 98 (in a 60 zone) – as he may have been doing slightly more than this when not under the clock.
It was suggested that Craig keep his speeding strictly to the track in future!"
