Mate, the wave you gave my little guy sitting in the back of my white station wagon this afternoon had him bouncing.
He firmly believes that you are a top bloke.
Cheers for that, a happy child makes a grumpy father feel just that much better too :D

Young fella is a bit freaked by bikes for some reason at the moment, so anything that can help him see they are good and friendly machines is just bloody dandy by me - and he's STILL harping on about his friend on the blue motorbike!

And I expect the mystery rider will see this - the KB patch on the front of his jacket gave that away :D

Be a bloody good day when we all start doing that won't it? Image the impact it would have on the image of bikers.
And at what cost? Hell... I'm in!

Come on Maha, stop doing the inuendo, for christs sake put up or shut up will you?
We all piss people off.
Me, if I didn't mean to offend I apologise and get on with it. No need to do a song and dance, no need to start a thread about it. Not everyone will get on with everyone in this world, that's life.
If someone has been spreading rumours about you or stabbing you in the back, man up and confront them - or not, but don't drag it on and on. It's getting a little tiresome.

You kidding me??
Got any idea how much the average gay professional earns?
I'm set for retirement - just need to make sure the other one is bent too, then I can be assured of only the finest retirement village care in the next 30 years or so!

That comment would have merit if it weren't for the fact that neither of the cage occupants were solely cage pilots.
In fact the 3 year old has yet to get behind the wheel...

What's the holdup? The sooner he learns to drive the sooner you have a free dial a driver in the house.

Not being a gay professional, I'm at a bit of a disadvantage here.

Hmmm it wasn't a blue Blackbird was it? I met the gentleman at Colin's place and he was wearing blue cordura and the KB patch prominently on the front! In fact he remembered me from the Westpac Ride from two years I attended.
Small world we live in and Souf'Aucklund is smaller again! :yes:
Glad to hear your wee nipper is still finding something to like about them mayhemsickles we love so dearly.

That was probably me, the young fella was in his child seat in the right rear and did a pretty good job of swivelling around to have a look. Coming up to the lights at Opaheke Road if I remember right. Made me smile on my way home from work. Nice touch to a nice day.

Good to catch up with you again, even briefly Justin. I did not realise that the Kiwibiker patch stood out so well.

Thats the one - and even today as we drove home from the Santa Parade in Papakura, he was going on about seeing his "Kiwibiker friend on the cool blue bike" :)

Ah, the innocents....
Kids realise we are human on our machines..... Shame the majority of road users think we are just targets.
I always give kids a wave too.... Hopefully they continue to look out for bikes through into their adulthood....

One of the most memorable moments I have had on a bike was with a young man, I guess about 7 years old.
Little angel faced fella was looking out the back window of the car.. I was expecting a wave from him after he continuously stared at me for the few hundred metres I had been following them. Well, when the little bugger pulled a funny face at me!
I thought jeez checky bugger, I'll get you.. so I put my thumb against where my nose would be on the helmet and wiggled my fingers like I was poking my tongue out! :bleh:
Little fella laughed, told Mum who was driving to look! by the time she looked I was back to serious biker! :whistle:
She carried on driving, and the kid did the same back to me! Thumb on nose, tongue out, wiggly fingers!
So thinking hard how to out smart this 7 year old I put one hand on the side of my helmet and waved the hands!
Kid cracked up again, got mum to look and I was back to serious biker!
This time the kid did two hands, one on each ear, tongue out hands waving! :2thumbsup
Should have seen his face when I did it back! hand on either side of my helmet, thumb on nose. Flip face visor up, tongue out!
Look of astonishment and intrigue, along with lavishings of laughter. (pretty sure mum saw me that time.)
Anyway kid was dumbfounded as I passed them and carried on my way. Gave mum a wave as I passed...
Magical moment! Hopefully a future, kid friendly biker!
