Quick quiz after nearly riding into the back of a truck.

[jamiey]

Almost rode into the back of a truck today, simply through not concentrating on the road ahead. Got distracted for 1 second and nearly came a cropper, just stopped in time.
Thought i'd do a quick quiz just for a bit of fun. See if any motorcycling safety gurus can prevent me doing it again.

One of the following things was NOT PRESENT today, leading to my emergency stop, see if you can pick it out from the list.

1. Sunshine.
2. A hot chick walking alongside.
3. A very short flimsy summer dress.
4. A gust of wind.
5. Underwear.

I'd say either the fact that she was hot or the gust of wind - probably wasn't necessary.

My friend wrote off both his car and a van at a roundabout because he was ogling some chicks at the roadside.

hmmmmm wind gusts.

Hasta be Underwear. NOT present the man said...

What's me prize then?

[Thaeos]

That is actually the most distracting thing I've encountered so far. Driving OR riding.

I low sided my R6 not that long ago along Oriental Parade because 2 girls were wearing the shortest hot pants I've ever seen. (I didn't hit anything, only thing was a munted crash bung, scratch to the 'zorst)

Be warned a scantily clad girl walking down the street is no more a harbinger of death to an honest biker..

Ummm,
If you are going to continue to be distracted by females walking, then may I suggest you stick to being a passenger in a cage!

Seriously!
In 1 second you cover the best part of 15 metres at 50k... That is a long way into the back of a Truck Chassis.... that doesn't move very much when hit my Alloy and Plastic, and human bones.....

Yes, females dig guys on bikes, but they also like guys in perfectly serviceable working order.

Sorry for being the "Fun Policeman" today, but I don't really find it amusing to stack a 160 Kw Hp machine because one can't keep their eyes on the road.

I usually follow the 5 second rule when perving at girls.

+1. Has to be the underwear not being present.

I usually have the Moll on the back so the slightest turn of the helmet in the wrong direction at the wrong time earns me a karate chop in the ribs.

[Cayman911]

I remember making a U turn once cause of a very special "distraction" :P

[dipshit]

God gave men a brain and a penis... just not enough blood to run both at once though.

[Squiggles]

I usually follow the 5 second rule when perving at girls.

10 seconds if its wet!

[Gremlin]

you perve at them for 5 seconds? University and the surrounds are terrible like that. I haven't come a cropper yet, but the odds are definitely against me. They only have to win once
