    How much do you love your bike?

    Now I'm not usually one to post threads, preferring instead to read others and then offer up my infinate "Words of Wisdom" instead .

    However the recent action of a motorcylcing buddy has left me pondering.....How much do you love your bike????

    Heres the scenario:

    You live next door to your riding mates, You work weekends but they dont.

    It's Saturday, you get up around (4-5am) to leave to work, its wet outside and your bike is parked up on the deck for a quick getaway, Unfortunately when you jump on ya bike and kick the stand up, you slip and ya bike ends up on its side. Despite trying valiantly to right it, you realise that you cant lift it without help and you will be late for work.

    Forced to make a descision....

    Do you ....


    A) Make a call to one of your mates,knowing that they're probably fast asleep in their beds.

    B) Call into work and tell them your going to be late and then get help.

    C) Take your car,Leave ya bike and then make an urgent call your mates to rescue your bike.

    or

    D) Leave your bike lying on its side for most of the day and tell no one, until one of ya mates ring you in a panic to tell you ya bikes fallen over... and then try to play it down by saying.....It's ONLY a Vehicle!!:

    Ya see where I'm Headed here

    If ya answered answered A, B or C then your all good in my books BUT if ya answered D...

    Dont you think that your mates are totally in their rights to take a picture of your bike and then text it to you with the comment "Shame on you"........


    HOW MUCH DO YOU LOVE YOUR BIKE!!!!

    If your bike was a woman, I'd call Womens Refuge. To answer the thread question (not the stupid multi-choice question), I love my current bike like I loved my second girlfriend... I respect her, I look after her, I ride the fuck out of her, but at the end of the day I know I'm going to upgrade... so about <-------------------> this much.

    Fear is never a reason to quit. It's only an excuse.

    If YOUR bike was a woman I'd be extremely concerned

    I love my bike so much that i don't use it for commuting to work shit. Even though i would prefer to ride each day... i spare it that tyre wearing, cold running, mileage accumulating use.
