    I've heard many stories about racist folks on that side of the globe. I'm not making any accusations, it was just a question.
    Depends where you go I suppose, I wouldn't want to be a white guy walking through a blackhood area of N.Y but I woudn't say everyone from N.Y was a racist. Russia areas in cities are just as bad, just watch Ross Kemp on gangs.
    Take a trip to Bradford or "Bradistan" if you're a white guy and you'll soon know what it feels like to be intimidated and be a minority.

      He went to Germany earlier this year just to watch Beyer; maybe he'll go just for a look?

        That sounds great, I was unaware of that.

        What country are you from btw?

                I must say yes he is. We dont have many sportsstars over here. In fact Tom Kristensen, who just won Le Mans for a record 8'th time, and Kessler are the only ones I can think of at the moment who might be called a star outside of Denmark itself.

                  Denmark is ahead of the US and UK in the Human development index, and is generally recognised as probably the best run country in Europe.

                  The Danes I met at the Calzaghe fight were outstanding fans - really impressed me and made me a fan of Kesslers.

                      So you wouldn't have any issues walking through a black neighbourhood in NY?
