When asked by people what its like I am the first one to point towards my partner and say, "go talk to the owner".

    But girly, you were quick to snipe in exactly the same fashion at a 'noob' rider. Certainly seems your ego doesnt like the same being returned.

    And I ride an ULTRA GAY bike......
    My ego is fine, I'm just grumpy as hell that the weather is fine and I've had to leave the bike parked up because even max dosage of my painkiller cocktail I'm not feeling comfortable enough to go for a ride
    Might go do so some spannering on her though, good thing I'm butch enough to be able to do my own maintenance eh?

    ...and as a commuter too. But heck, I ride a GN125 so what would I know?

    Ahhh bugger, I've JUST come in from washing mine and doing oil, tyres etc. had I known? I would have chucked you the cleaning cloths for some 'real womans' work.

    It's never good to know someone's pain is so bad they cannot enjoy what they love doing. I admit I think I would go crazy without my bike(s). Yes its a cracker, and now the rossi wannabe's are clear of a couple of my favourite 'bits' I think I am off for a wee jaunt.

    Your insights on pain management might be bloody useful if this latest round of quacks can't fix me soon!

    Alright fair enough. I did think the actual video was funny though.

    Lol...I have one of those finger things lying around in the garage somewhere...never got around to fitting it on anything.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.
