There is also a book that has been written about his travels throughout the Pilbara Region as well that has some great stories.
I remember a part about this lady with a hot needle thinking that she was burning some ticks on his belly but she was actually burning the poor buggers tits and he wasn't very impressed about that.

This is statue of Red Dog in Dampier West Aust.

The image of the bike was reversed. In the pic its sitting on the kick stand which is on the right side so they must have reversed the image to make it fit the poster.

It looks like the Honda has grown a leg as well, unless that guy has got something strange growing from his loin.

Maybe most of the weight being on the back wheel makes it appear that way... ;)

Don't know about red dog but we have a redback beer, named after the redback spider, which is similar to your black widow.... ;)

PS, google says that there is a Red Dog beer and its brewed by Miller in the States and sold under the plank road brand....
