That they do not have all the answers?

People ask questions on here, and others answer them with what they think, or how they do it. That is always in contrast to someone else, and it turns into a long discussion that achieves nothing at all.

I'm sitting around doing nothing today and reading some threads for the hell of it, one of them asks why some bikers won't do a track days? As if since the thread starter had done some, it was the only way to be a good rider.

I know a lot of what gets said is with good intentions, but it gets hazy and condescending really quickly.

Ok, rant over.

That'd get me off the computer at least. No good can come from this much time spent on KB.

Pickin' up Tylah and Jayden this arvo though, so bevvies isn't a good idea.

Nice one Drew. In a general sense I like to do things my way so don't take much from threads full of advice anyway.

The Mair brothers are rather free spirited from what I can see too. Enjoy :woohoo:

Replace kiwibikers with people in the thread title and you have your answer.

Mind you, no man, no problem.

There is always an answer. The problem is people ask the wrong question.

Shall I change the OP question to include the word 'right'?

We are a very un accepting bunch of everyone else' opinion or experience. I know how I ride, (and crash) and if someone asks me directly for assistance I make sure to point out my short falls, before saying what I do. If they are silly enough to emulate anything I do then I hope they do it with a plan 'b' in mind.

I thought for the most part there was more reading of posts/blogs and watching vids'n'shit than posting and the general chat was just a rough idea for a conversation... you have to admit some of it is fucken funny, some is just missinterpertation with the little bit left flyblown.

I don't think you know anything at all :Pokey:

You mean you can't just tell everybody what to do? :scratch:

Realistically though, I offer advice simply to try and speed up the learning process for others, either to keep them alive, or avoid everyone doing the same hard knocks, when the advice would skip all that.

If you think about it, that is one of the most profound statements ever on this site, and undeniably true! :yes:

Fuck it ain't just Kiwibiker that is full of 'geniuses and experts' or think they have an answer for everything, it's a human condition. Just we notice it here...because we are here. Go stand in any pub, stand on the side of a racetrack, sit in your living room watching a car race, there will be a 'genius or expert' not far away. Give him half a chance and he'll tell you all he knows...

Haha, in a way you're right and in a way you're wrong. In a group of folks big enough there should be enough wisdom and/or experience to asnwer a good deal of the questions posed. The problem lies with the credibility of the person who answers....or as per a clever little thingee I've seen hanging over a very clever bastards' office desk:

"Those of you who think you know everything,
are very annoying to those of us who do."

As an answer specialist ... :yes:

I always give the right answers. :innocent:

Just the answers are not for the questions asked ... :facepalm:

So it's the original poster's fault for NOT asking the CORRECT question ... :shutup:

My wife reasons the same way, it doesn't matter what the issue is, somehow it always turns out to be my fault... :mellow:

My reasoning ... I have no wife (to tell me I am wrong) ... therefore .. I am ALWAYS right ...

..the more times you wake up means the more things you can learn...realised some while ago that coming to grips with all the certainties in life, that were the gospel truth, unwavering constants, are just a figment of your conscious endeavours to seek the truth....and the truth is different for every man jack of us, perambulating on this rock we call home...thats why we all need a pointy stick to keep away all those others that also know the absolute truth...therefore in my little world of absolute knowledge of ones doubt, a pointy stick is far more important than someone else's barbed wit or sharp ideas...

...something like that...its a bit of an irony though, that as soon as some kind of wisdom starts scratching at the walls of youthful defiance and searching nature, that an insidious thing called, i dont give a fuck anymore, creeps in and makes life more exciting or absurd...maybe a little bit of wisdom means not giving a fuck...i hope so, 'cos if it does i'm getting real wise...
