What kind of rider are you?

[Rogue Rider]

Well, this is all about you. I thought it would be interesting to have some self expression of what sorta riders we think we are, want to be, or what we think our friends are.......

You can be honest, and noone will know.........:Punk:

We have all sorts on here, and this might reveal the reality.:innocent:

[Genie]

You don't have up there an OKish rider - for that would be me.

I'm not happy with where I'm at and can't wait to get out and learn more. Practice a bit, then some more, and more and ...

[Headbanger]

I pretty much suck, so try and ride with that in mind.

Like to feed her some fat, but when others howl off I let em go.

Also take heed of the fact that of all the pieces in the equation, I'm the softest, and the most likely to be fuckered in the event that something goes poorly.

[rainman]

Funny poll. Does "I am a good rider" mean "I am immensely skilled at high-speed racetrack maneuvers, have split second reflexes and balls of steel" or "I seem to be reasonably good at not falling off and hurting myself, and I try not to be too much of a cock"?

'Cos both good be described as "good", depending on your outlook, but I'm much more one of those than the other.

Now that is a good perspective. Bling to you...

I didn't think to put Awesome Biker Chick, and the other awesome one Ultimo Nana Rider! lol


be a few of those on here for sure.

[Big Dave]

Surprising I'm the only super awesome so far???

[slofox]

Still alive and whole (ish) after forty two years of riding. "Careful" would be an apt description (these days anyway...less so forty years ago). Although, having said that, I have fallen off every bike I have owned bar one. And that one was a CB250 communter I had for a brief period - until I got so bored with it I stopped riding it...

Has your Mom not taught you how to share?

Best she learn you a lesson in chivalry.

(oops...bit sick down here...sorry Maha...just read your most gentlemanly post....please forgive. (I'll buy you chocolate))

[SMOKEU]

I've done about 15,000km of riding on road bikes and haven't managed to bin any of them.

[Coldrider]

I haven't crashed a road either.

[Big Dave]

Oh, you say the truest things. :shutup:

[davebullet]

There was no "I AM the riding GOD!" so I chose crap instead.

[onearmedbandit]

The headbanger pic gave it away......




I didn't realise that was the accepted interpretation of the headbanger icon.

[Paul in NZ]

Still alive and whole (ish) after forty two years of riding. ..

Thats an alive and awesome

[Pixie]

I am a motorcycle rider.

Don't like those horse things

[DEATH_INC.]

Depends on who you talk to....

Kelly thought you were "the shizz"

Yep, our no.1 fan.

Your a good cock then rainman! :)

I can read between the lines mate

[tri boy]

I'm so awesomly fast, that light particles can't keep up, so I need to use Datura before each ride to slow me down.
(polls suck)

I am a complete muppet and have stacked every bike I have ever ridden. So when can I take your Triple for a cane? :D

[2wheeldrifter]

Have been told I ride how I look... :yes:



and I look FUCKEN awesome :)

I am sure it has nothing to do with me looking like a clown flying on the back of a bumble bee

[mattian]

All weather rider. Dont have a car.Never have. Always been able to manage without one.

[_Shrek_]

I've done about 15,000km of riding on road bikes and haven't managed to bin any of them.

so you've not done much riding then :dodge:

[Blinkwing]

I ride in all weather, but I've never really been out on NZ's roads or anything mainly due to the fact that I'm still on a 250 & have no money. :P

Also I suck at roads that I've never been on before.

Nothing wrong with the 250...they can take you all over the country.

Now, confidence is another matter. The more you ride the more you will develop your skill. New roads are always scarey, just go slower....who says you have to go fast! You ride at your speed...enjoy the view....be safe and stay smiling. :yes:

[DrunkenMistake]

All weather hard.
I think on my to conquor list i have,
Rain,
Big wind,
Bright sun/hot day,
Slick showers,
Savage Ice
All ticked off, All thats left is snow, Lets hope I dont have to ride to work on that day!

[SMOKEU]

so you've not done much riding then :dodge:

I don't have petrol money.

[_Shrek_]

I don't have petrol money.

neither do I, but I have a fuel card :yes: & Mrs S sorts it out :blip:

[SMOKEU]

Unfortunately I don't have either of those as of yet.

[_Shrek_]

I guess your turn will come, just make sure she likes bikes, cheers :apint:

[bogan]

poll is broken dude, it only lets me select one!

most days i'm a good rider i reckon, sometimes better than that, sometimes worser. All times enjoying it :D

Also, I only have a cage cos I also have a dirtbike to cart around, could I still be counted as an all weather rider?

[SMOKEU]

I guess your turn will come, just make sure she likes bikes, cheers :apint:

That's proving to be easier said than done.

[McWild]

Needs an option for "knows limits and wishes to improve".

The moment you start thinking you're a good rider is often the moment you start sliding down the road.

The moment you think all the other riders around you are knobs is often the moment you stop having riders to ride with.


IMO the only person who can tell you you're a good rider is someone else.

[DrunkenMistake]

I don't have petrol money.

how much gas do you use a week?! haha I can barely put $30 a fortnight into my CBR and i do a solid 120 - 150 k's a week haha, just scrub together the cents and gold coins, that or spend $5 on a rubber hose and and screw driver...



and make a rubber screwdriver snake :)

[DMNTD]

I am Captain Crunch....pretty much covers it :scooter:

I don't even ride at the moment because I can't afford a WOF, rego, insurance or petrol!

Hell I thought I was broke at the mo! :blink:
Tick an O and flick some tins. You'll get 35 @ .8 making 7spot gross.
Repeat process twice in order to get yourself freehold
Always pay the Man

The kind that prefers two wheels to four :rofl:

Sounds like a pretty chronic plan.

[Grubber]

Think I'd like to be part of the Ultimo Nana Rider's Club please and thank you.

I've ridden with you and you aint a Nana. I've ridden with way worse my friend.
Ok me!!!! I am safe and fast.
Which means i ride to the conditions for the most part. Where the road is clear and clean i can be known to curry along and where it is of heavier traffic i tend to ride safe. Track days are a different story....it's all on for young and old.

[Grubber]

I've done about 15,000km of riding on road bikes and haven't managed to bin any of them.

No rush. Plenty of time yet!

[Banditbandit]

Didn't want to make any of those choices .... But ended up choosing I'm crap .. not because I am ... but lucky to be alive ... because that's certainly true ..

[SMOKEU]

No rush. Plenty of time yet!

I can't say the same about dirt bikes though.
