Disgraceful shenanigans seen on my ride to work

**Insanity_rules** · 17th March 2010, 09:47

So Here I am having a plesant lane split to work this morning when what sight should meet my mince pies but ....... not one..... not two......not even three but four fellow bikers in slow traffic riding in their lane wth good following distances and BLOODY behaving themselves!!!!!!

Come on people we're supposed to be rebels, social miscontents and so on. If we keep behaving like choir boys/girls society will bloody well expect it. So get out there and stop taking showers, start lane splitting and create some chaos!

Oh and stop with the bloody Hi vis too, your starting to make us look like geeks!

Shenanigans.
There's a word you don't see much.

Like balderdash (I've trying to repopularise that one)
Or shindig.
Or hootenanny
("This here's a right good shindig"
"Nah uh, this here's a hootenanny"
"Shindig!"
"Hootenanny!")

Anyone got any more?

If I rode an Honda and wore a high-viz vest I might take umbrage at such slurs.

My thoughts exactly
If you wanna wear a hi-vis vest , go be a road worker

I was in the cage this morning in the porirua/wellington traffic jam........ well over to the left letting all the fellow bikers through when a madman tore past me on my left hand side. lol dam near crapped myself.
There had to be one that had to ride on that side of the road.
Nice bike though. Looked like a smooth rider

I'm hearing ya man......... Pissed off, wet and late are also a bad combination.

The result of my running late to work on Monday arrived in the mail today, $120..... It was that last 100m to work where he got me.
I forgot that they like occasionally to hang out on the petone esplanarde first thing in the morning. DOH!!!

wots with all the High Vis hatred?.... no ones forcing you to wear one. try commuting every morning in Central auckland rush hour madness while its still dark. you might change your mind when several 4x4's make a bee-line right for your face.
