Please cover up

[pattymelt]

I see alot of summer riders out there waiting for a hard lesson in life. Yesterday I saw a dude riding a little cb400 with a t-shirt, shorts and no gloves going up the harbour bridge. I've seen fair weather riders like this before roaming around surburban streets, but on the motorway!!! Thats just fuking ridiculous. Come on people lets try to educate our 2 wheeled companions out there. So if you happen to see a fleshy skin rider parking up or getting onto thier bikes, do everyone a favour and give them a little heads up on wearing some gear. It breaks my heart everytime I ride past an ambulance and a bike on its side lying in the middle of the road as I did 2 weeks ago at the entry to dominion road. Accidents will happen no matter what, but at least covering up will save your largest organ which is your skin.

[FJRider]

But it was hot .... !!!!

[EJK]

Gear-naked threads are getting almost as popular as the wave threads.

[breakaway]

If I'm paying this new ACC fee, I've earned my right to fall off my bike w/o gear and have skin grafts and shit on the govt :yes:

[sosman]

Don't worry about it!...that will learn em

Gear-naked threads are getting almost as popular as the wave threads.

are we running a sweepstake on how long it takes for us to end up in PD?

[FJRider]

We ARE talking about SAFETY gear ... so why would a safety thread end in PD ... ???

[cc rider]

Your web cam still off line .... ???


We ARE talking about SAFETY gear ... so why would a safety thread end in PD ... ???True. Helmets, raincoats & butt plugs are all items to keep you & your ride safe & dry

I see alot of summer riders out there waiting for a hard lesson in life... Accidents will happen no matter what, but at least covering up will save your largest organ which is your skin.I agree patty, people are dumb, basically.
I see plenty of people come into work that I want to smack in the forehead & say "What the fuck are you thinking". It erks me when riders buy a high quality helmet & ride off with a t-shirt & runners on. I'm not always the safest either. I used to wear an open face when the ex & I were on the harley & I'll probably wear jeans from time to time. :stupid: (me)

[grusomhat]

now stop that laughing mister or I'll put my clothes back on, get on my harley & refuse to wave as I pass by :innocent:

I think I saw you yesterday, you went past about 20 times though.

[PrincessBandit]

Maybe they think the less clothing they have on the more likely car drivers will see them? Bet 99% of the hetero male population of drivers would notice/see a naked woman riding a bike. (Even us women drivers would perv at naked bloke on a bike, well, most likely we would...)

[FJRider]

I think it's because some believe that tar seal is softer in summer ...

I've see a few touring down this way in shorts/T-shirt ... :no:

[FJRider]

Er Umm...No. I just really like wearing boots :innocent:

Just take the spurs off though ... :stoogie:

[BMWST?]

There..... are.....dont........ wave.... threads.......?
fixt 10 char

[Hopeful Bastard]

If its too hot to wear gear, Then its too hot to ride

*inserts ugly image here*

[cc rider]

I think I saw you yesterday, you went past about 20 times though.I had to get the non/wave down pat. Did I look good, grusom? It's all about the image you know :wari:
Mind you, I did flip the bird at my riding instructor yesterday... they called it road rage... I called it maneuver intent :rofl:

I wonder how many people I annoy on any given sunny weekend. In the last month I have had the stern word/gestures from the fuzz twice, once there was some wild waving because I was in t-shirt, shorts and trainers and once during a spot licence/wof/reg check I got a lecture for not having gloves (they were in my backpack). I am not anti over it, I know they are telling me because it is what they think is best, but somedays you gotta taste the rush of going gearless (or maybe just not being your own sauna on a motorcycle).

I am not anti over it, I know they are telling me because it is what they think is best, but somedays you gotta taste the rush of going gearless (or maybe just not being your own sauna on a motorcycle).I understand how tempting it is. Like I said, I went 21yrs with an open face, probably will again sometime. I grew up on the back of bikes wearing an open face, T-shirt, jeans, sometimes a skirt or leggins, laceup boots & no gloves. I have all the good stuff now. But we are all responsible for ourselves. I had a big off when I was young. Luckily wearing a full face. Did my back in, but there was no insert back protection for my jacket back then.
So buy a vented jacket & gloves if you can. Better then nothing.
I know I can't ride (pillion) with a few mates unless I'm wearing my leathers. Which is far enough too.

[cc rider]

Hey Laxi, we're back to having our clothes back on.. or off.. or was that on... where were we... what thread is this again :scratch:

[Laxi]

more chicks in bikinis on bikes I say

I rode to the beach the other weekend in helmet, bikini & sneakers, is that close enough?

[cc rider]

I don't got the moneys. (Epecially not when my helmet was lifted from my house last saturday, replacement set me back $180)

Dunno. What sorta bike were you riding?

[cc rider]

Fair call, mayhem. Decent gear, any gear isn't cheap.
That stinks about your helmet.

[FJRider]

[Little Miss Trouble]

I believe pics may exist, although they haven't surfaced yet. Strange.

[FJRider]

Such pic's find there way to the bottom of very deep holes ... they may take some digging to find.... if they are to be found.

[FJRider]

Made sexier by its rider I'm sure ... ??? please confirm ... with pic's ... :innocent:

[Ronin]

Er Umm...No. I just really like wearing boots :innocent:

And only boots...

[cc rider]

And only boots...Is that rhetorical :innocent:

[Little Miss Trouble]

But of course. Theres plenty of pics of me floating around on here somewhere...

[crystalball]

looking for good summer mesh riding jacket but untill then i wear my shirt on a hot day even on the highway. but i do wear my dragon jeans and gloves and boots. but when i get my summer jacket (not safest mesh but better than t.shirt) i will wear the jacket allways. had a spill on one bike t.shirt and cotton trousers and shoes no gloves, but no grazes or cuts, used my helmet and shoes to slide along on lol. mind you helmet was wasted and shoes well worn.

[Ronin]

Is that rhetorical :innocent:

It was a statement not a question.

[cc rider]

try a DriRider - Air Ride or Climate 2

[cc rider]

It was a statement not a question.well as long as we're all straight on that then. By the way, did I leave my cowboy boots at your place...again :blink:

[motor_mayhem]

The sexiest 600cc sprotsbike ever :D
That can't be.
1. My bike is a 750cc not 600cc.
2. It was in my garage until Sunday afternoon.

[Swoop]

This thread has motivated me to wide wearing shorts, polo shirt, sunnies and shoes. Twice so far this week.
It is pleasant to hear the engine sounds without that pesky helmet.

Thursday I will be doing the same again.
