Biking "Don't dos"

[slofox]

Don't stick a tube of toothpaste into your seat bag...and forget to take it out...:slap: :argh:

[allycatz]

Dont let your kids leave tuna filled breadrolls under the seat of your scooter:no:

[oldrider]

Don't stick a tube of toothpaste into your seat bag...and forget to take it out...:slap: :argh:

Solved: I haven't got any teeth! :shutup:

[vifferman]

Don't bed in your new front brake pads by braking as hard as you can with four fingers (when you usually only use 1 or 2), on a damp, greasy, off-camber road covered in tar snakes. :blink:
Don't keep braking when the front wheel locks up. :shit:
Don't drop the bike right in front of spectators (road workers). :o
Don't land on your head instead of other parts of your body.:doh:

[Bend-it]

Don't read anything on an NZ based biker's forum called kiwibiker.

Doh! too late...

[vifferman]

Don't read anything on an NZ based biker's forum called kiwibiker.
No no no!
Don't believe anything you read on a NZ-based biker's forum called KiwiBiker.

[Hitcher]

Don't dismount and step away from your bike without first fully extending the sidestand.

[martybabe]

And don't trust the soundness of the Tarmac you put your side stand on, especially in hot weather. 38 toppled over bikes at Donington one sunny GP once upon a time, like very expensive dominoes .:confused:

[gijoe1313]

Don't go riding with others who will lead you astray ... or not astray enough! :devil2: :innocent: :scratch:

[allycatz]

Dont get off the wrong side of the bike....has a nasty habit of following you duh!

[jim.cox]

Dont let aluminium beer cans wear through from vibrating against each other :(

[oldrider]

Don't look at anything on the road, wondering what it is! :shifty: without deliberately setting a line first! :shit:

[Maha]

Dont confuse Diesel with petrol.....(wheres Grahammeboyoboy?)

[MIXONE]

Don't sneeze with your visor down!

[peasea]

Don't put your toothbrush in the same bag as your deodorant and forget to lock the aerosol's nozzle. Deodorant tastes like shit.

[mister.koz]

Don't let the throttle out on cold tires on a cold greasy morning before straightening up totally out of a corner.. hello 1000cc, fishtail, laughing spectator :shit:
Don't forget to put your stand up - especially with spectators - that little killswitch makes u look like a dick (better than cornering on the stand i might add)

[vifferman]

Deodorant tastes like shit.
Reeeaallly?
How do you know? :confused:
And does shit taste like anything else? (Just asking so I don't have to taste it myself).

(Note to self: don't post self-implicating statements on public forums...)

[kevfromcoro]

Dont put a 15 pac of iced coldies in your backpac..

Don't read this while sipping a hot cup of coffee....off to get the screen cleaner:shit:

You know what I meant, wise-arse.

Anyways, I got showered after a trip from Orks to Welly, sprayed armpits, put toothpaste on brush, inserted brush into correct orifice and BLYECK! I knew immediately what had happened. Ever since I have either wrapped my brush in cling wrap or shoved it in its own plastic bag.

Footnote: My mouth didn't sweat or smell though!

Don't put 18 cans of beer in your back pack, forget to do the zip up and hurtle round the Ellerslie/Panmure interchange.

[EJK]

Don't go to KB!


Ah fuck too late...

[ynot slow]

Don't speed- tui anyone.

Don't wave back.

Don't piss other road users off.

[mossy1200]

Don't dismount and step away from your bike without first fully extending the sidestand.

or before stopping

[kevfromcoro]

or before stopping


allways get off your bike when it is stopped.......

Never before....

[gatch]

If you come across a polizia who is sympathetic to your cause, DO NOT ponder the morality of the situation when he says "I'm going to look over this direction for a few minutes"...

Very wise move Sir....

[rideon]

muck off - $20.00
Armour all - $12.50
Watching your partner slide off her nicely cleaned slippery seat in a carpark
- priceless

Armour all not for use on bike seats - no damage apart from her pride :slap:

[Fatt Max]

Never EVER ride on a bumpy road after a few beers and a curry the night before.

[crash harry]

Don't skimp on tyres

[Fatt Max]

Never ride away smiling to the pretty girl who is watching you when the steering lock is on.

[Qkchk]

Never EVER ride on a bumpy road after a few beers and a curry the night before.

Or with a full bladder on a sportsbike........



Armour all not for use on bike seats - no damage apart from her pride :slap:

Nor the tyre sidewalls.


Never ride away smiling to the pretty girl who is watching you when the steering lock is on.
Or forget to take the disc lock off after both of you mount the bike in front of a Ponsonby-packed resturant.

[PrincessBandit]

Never leave your bike idling on the sidestand on even the slightest of downhill slopes.....

[boman]

Do not ride over the really shiny smooth asphalt, at speed, when it has just been raining.

:no::shit::shit:

[Taz]

Never buy another sportsbike....... There are much better options for our roads and trails.

[kevfromcoro]

Haha... this thread is a laugh.

i think most of us can relate to all the things that happen when owning a bike.
