Dial a rider

[kasper]

Does any one know if there is a dial a driver system for motorbikes?

Nope but to be honest a better system would surely be --dial a pickup Ie a van comes and picks ya and your beast up

I agree. Maybe meaning dial a rider if you are too drunk to get home as opposed to if you are broken down. Personally, I wouldn't be too keen on letting someone I didn't know jump on my bike. But maybe that's just me?

I used to work for dial-a-driver in Wellington, we provided a bike pickup service using >25 year old/fully licenced etc etc riders. It wasn't advertised because they weren't always rostered on.

Taxi trucks?
If they are still around?
Or find a bike shop you can leave it for the night...
Dunno if I would trust a car park all night

Trust me, you're not the only one.

Trust me, you're not the only one.

Haha. You wouldn't even let "God" sit on your bike!

Fair enough too.

Well, as a rider I would have to be totally pissed anyway to be a pillion with any rider. :)

Once you get to know a few more bikers you will find someone that you trust to ide it for you. On the other hand, shit happens, and would you be prepared to put a friendship at risk with them wrecking your bike? Not a nice thought, but no one is invincible.

I think the bike is more likely to get scratched putting it in a van than being ridden carefully.

I'll say. A drunk pillion isn't really a great idea.

Hmmmm, dial a van would be great, a taxi service with room to take a bike or two, might be something in that........

[hmmmnz]

i wouldnt even let some random ride my b120 commuter bike, let alone something decent, the van is a much better idea

I would rather not drink than have someone else on my ride.
