[Danae]

My grandma went through breast cancer, this ride sounds awesome. It is especially relevant as breast cancer is genetic I believe...I'll be there

[Ragingrob]

Hmmm I better find a girly to pilliony :hug:

If a mate is keen, would one of your million helmets be able to be borrowed Stephen?

[Squiggles]

If a mate is keen, would one of your million helmets be able to be borrowed Stephen?

Possibly, have to do a count... i reckon we'd be able to locate one if you do find a pillion

All cancer is genetic, as in mutations that cause functional problems.

Some cancers are heritable - 'genetic' in the sense you mean Danae eg breast cancer genes BRCA1 and 2 which run in families. (Enough :hitcher: for now I think)

'Tis a worthy cause.

[Ragingrob]

Possibly, have to do a count... i reckon we'd be able to locate one if you do find a pillion

Yeah you may not have to look eh :pinch:

Please note the new meeting place:

Hope WIMA has been cleaned up. Several years ago I attended a pink ribbon ride only to be frightened off by hordes of militant men hating lesbians. Scary people!~

[klyong82]

I will be attending....pillion seat on the Fireblade is available to lovely ladies only........mmmmmmmhhh ladies....

[motorbyclist]

We all love Boobs, come support keeping them nice and round (and healthy).... mmm, boobs.

[Danae]

Silly boy... he lives out there!

Typical students, he asks how to get from A to B, and you give him a whole bunch of crap that doesn't answer the original question :lol:

[Thani-B]

All cancer is genetic, as in mutations that cause functional problems.

Some cancers are heritable - 'genetic' in the sense you mean Danae eg breast cancer genes BRCA1 and 2 which run in families. (Enough :hitcher: for now I think)

'Tis a worthy cause.

I hope I dont get it, Mum did. Its why Ive done this ride the past two years, and def will be there this year. Now I have my full hopefully she will come as my pillion.

[Slyer]

I thought this image was appropriate.

[Phurrball]

IIRC the familial variety of breast cancer is much less common than the 'spontaneous' variety. Attacking the interweb with BRCA1 and BRCA2 'prevalence' would answer, but It's late and I'm tired :blink:

[bomma]

Possibly, have to do a count... i reckon we'd be able to locate one if you do find a pillion

still got any of those spare helmets for a lady friend??

[Squiggles]

still got any of those spare helmets for a lady friend??

You had two attached to your bike on Friday?

[bomma]

You had two attached to your bike on Friday?

found out later that day that that helmet doesn't handle so well on the motorway. It's loose for her and at motorway speeds it pulls her head back. If you got anything that's a better fit lemme know aye

[Danae]

You had two attached to your bike on Friday?

two lady friends or two helmets?

[TOTO]

are the chicks gonna have those cute pink high vis vests again ?

[Lucyloo]

We most certainly are!

[Danae]

There are pink hi vis vests? :eek: I want!

[Hanne]

Yay for pinkness! Might dig up a pair of kiddie party fairy wings for this too...

[Danae]

Omgz I am so getting fairy wings!!!

[TOTO]

I wanna see a girly on one of these...

[TOTO]

you know that once you go under the knife, there is no going back...

[Squiggles]

Bumping this... dooont you be forgettin!

[Folcan]

Ill try to make this one again.. missed it last year

[Ragingrob]

I've now bought a second helmet for my pillion, so I've got a crappy old spare helmet as a last resort for anybody that needs one :2thumbsup

Hasn't been binned or anything, just cheap and loose fitting for a small head.

[Danae]

I'm gonna stick a big pink ribbon on the tail of my FXR and put little ribbons on the handlebars :eek: Yay! I love pink!

[klyong82]

Yay for pinkness! Might dig up a pair of kiddie party fairy wings for this too...

I have copyright ownership of that photo....I can take you to Copyright Tribunal for compensation........now Pink Ribbon...what is ya sister doing this year?

[Folcan]

anyone have any spare helmets still?.. I might have a pillon.

[PirateJafa]

I've got a spare, if you're willing to pick all the dirt and stones and grass out of the scratches in the top.

On second thoughts, probably not the best helmet to be using.

[Squiggles]

Believe Rob has bought a new pillion helmet, so should be 2 spares floating around (i'll have 3 out i think)

[Danae]

omg i have to go buy some pink stuff!! :sunny: pink ribbons!

[Lucyloo]

omg i have to go buy some pink stuff!! :sunny: pink ribbons!

The $2 shops are great for that sort of stuff. I picked up some packs of pink bows - 10 per pack - you just pull the ribbon and it transforms itself into a bow. Fabulous!

[Danae]

:eek: Sounds awesome! I shall be going shopping before sunday

[Danae]

So at the moment my leg hurts too much to ride (changing gear/putting foot down when stopped). I just hope it gets better by sunday!! I have some prescribed painkillers but side effects include drowsiness which is not ideal when riding a bike.

[Ragingrob]

What'd ya do? Sunday looks like it may even be ok weather!

My pillion is working sunday so can't make it :(

[PirateJafa]

What'd ya do? Sunday looks like it may even be ok weather!

Your pillion is working Sunday, so you can't make it? :blink:

[Danae]

i hit a handlebar with my thigh XD not recommended.

[Ragingrob]

Your pillion is working Sunday, so you can't make it? :blink:

Nope the subject for the verb 'to be able' was the same subject as for the verb 'to work'.

I'll be tharrrrr, hungovarrrr :scooter:

[PirateJafa]

I'll be tharrrrr, hungovarrrr :scooter:

Ah sorry. I'm so used to you giving poor excuses for not being at rides that it seemed natural you'd be doing the same here. ;)

Team V4 represent!

[Ragingrob]

Fark 9:30 at uni. I'm sooo staying in town sat night. Gotta find me some pink.

[Real_Wolf]

(Pillions get to wave to all the bridge-watchers. Is mean.)

[Phurrball]

I'll bring Big Yellow - has ample pillion seat.

[Danae]

Rode me bike without the motorcycle pants (just jeans) and there was a lot less pain :2thumbsup Only thing that is really painful is putting the sidestand down, as it involves bending my leg as well as putting weight on it

[Magua]

I should be borrowing my brother's bike for the ride, as mine just today went to cyclespot for its insurance inspection.

[pocketcracker]

awsome guys ... looks like a great turn out yet agian ... i got my cast off yesterday morning , got home rolled bike outta garage and galzed MMMM went inside grabed a drink ..KNOCK KNOCK at the front door .. open it and theres a well dressed man standing there with papers in his hand he says morning you kyle mercer i nodded he then handed me the papers and asked for my licence ..DOH ! .. apparently a ticket form 17 months ago in my work truck finally made its way through the system and took me to 105 points ..GRRRR .. lost till 13th december .. my gxxr still hasent moved in 11 weeks. may need to call for a test pilot soon .. give my baby sum luv ..

then tonight i hear acc putting 1000+cc bike rego up to $700 12 months .. FARK that .. rather pay 1-3 tickets at $150 each .. thats if ya get pulled up.

[PirateJafa]

Pity they didn't take your license from you 11 weeks ago then eh? You'd be one week away from getting it back then. :rofl:

[jono035]

then tonight i hear acc putting 1000+cc bike rego up to $700 12 months .. FARK that .. rather pay 1-3 tickets at $150 each .. thats if ya get pulled up.

ACC component of rego up to $745, there is still another $130 of other crap on top for a total of $875 per year ish...

[Real_Wolf]

lol, thats actually not too bad of an idea pocketcracker, considering how often your bike gets checked for rego

[jono035]

Until they do the obvious and raise the fine to keep it being, you know, a deterrent?

[pocketcracker]

yea , i my self at this point am gonna go with the put rego on hold and maybe rego bike over the summer months 3-6 months .. and hell why own a thou if ya not gonna say good bye to the red n blue lights in a rear vision mirror, HEHEHE ! .. :lol:

as of december ill be wearing my full black dainese leathers. My very distinctive Red n white sponsored malboro jacket will b sold or put away. EG. can't b picked out to easy and not eye grabbing.:banana:

just my 2c worth ! :mad:

[pocketcracker]

photo shop a rego sticker , scan reg and alter the digits to suit will stop ya getting meter maid tickets.

WHO SAID THAT :baby:

[motorbyclist]

apparently a ticket form 17 months ago in my work truck finally made its way through the system and took me to 105 points .

can they even do that on points, or I suppose you'd be over anyway even if they backdated it?

[pocketcracker]

aparently they can DOH !..

all good may give my wrist time to heal , and may grab a drz or sumthing in mean time play slightly offroad then motard the sucker for summer.
