Excellent story Paul. Shit life can be cruel sometimes.

[Ghost Lemur]

Cheers for that Paul.

Brilliant.

That all sounded familiar,must of been the British bikes and the posing...cept for the girls....smart creatues really,they can spot a complete arsehole a mile away.I never stood a chance - you must of been a handsome devil eh?

[Wonko]

Great read Paul.

So your telling me that if I have an old dunga bike, and hang out with mates on flaher bikes, who show off all the time means that I'm going to get all the ladies??

Motu, what's this thing with the words from "Wolverton Mountain" at the bottom of you messages?

[toads]

It almost made the journey worthwhile….

Almost….

that was so well written and really enjoyable, I can totally relate, even though I'm a mere female, I hate being pillion and therefore simply have to have my own bike.

Riding pillion scares the crap out of me,only do it if I have to.Always seems to me that whoever I`m on the back of goes too fast,brakes too late,leans over too far when in reality it`s people I`ve ridden with and they`re careful,safe riders.I think it`s the "not being in control" bit that bothers me.

Yup!

And the added bonus is that if you ever beat them up a hill you can really rub it in, "Jeeze I beat you on that old pile of crap", if you loose you always say, "well wadda ya expect?"

heh heh

never pick fights with old guys, they are sneaky and you might loose embarassingly, if you win you beat up an old guy

I don't mind not being in control... I just don't like others being in control...

to read more.

Great read - thanks for sharing that with us Paul!

[Mongoose]

Great stuff Paul, your usual good standard. Let the G/f have a read and when she had finished she wanted to know when the next instalment is, cracked her up something wicked.She thought it a hell of a hoot. I said "Wait till you meet him!"

Yep and like riding us old-timers know all the tricks,like you put your hands up and say "Hey mate,I dont want any trouble",then when they turn their back towards you ready to strut off with a big shit-eating grin THAT`S when you hit the bastards but friggin hard..........and as for that shit about not hitting a man when he`s down,well fine if you want the bastard to get up again and you fancy your chances against someone not only younger and fitter but bloody annoyed as well.Young guys use their fists and feet first,older guys use their brains,young guys tend to threaten,older hands dont see any advantage in giving prior warning.Young guys react straight away,an older guy will weigh things up and wait until there`s least chance of himself coming second even if that takes a while.Guy gave me some hassle many years ago,I later saw him with a cast on his broken wrist,what better time to give him matching ribs?

not many people can their memories down in tyoe as well as that. great story.
we were at a rally some years back in oxfordshire. on the friday night a girl got up on stage and did a belting rendition of Zombie (cranberries), slim, pert, long blonde hair, a real stunner and man what a voice. next morning, once the hangover had cleared enough, there was a run out to a pub in avebury, the village is inside the stone circle there. a couple of times on the way at speeds of around 60-90mph we passed someone on a tricked up suzuki, only to be passed again like were at a standstill. the second time it passed i spotted a long blonde ponytail fluttering from under the back of their helmet. i bet there were few girls sharpening their fingernails and "bitch" being uttered under breath. she was was slim, stunning, could sing the arse off some professionals and rode a bike better than most blokes.
women on bikes as opposed to birds on bikes, weeeell, most don't seem to have the confidence (i have evidence to back it up) but those that do, lads beware, you're in for a challenge.
