New crash study.

[Zedder]

Well it's nice to have some local input when one is planning a relaxed outing with one or two suitably skilled two wheeled lads. The objective is actually the Cape, but via a somewhat indirect route, IYKWIM.

That's a good outing alright. The indirect route is best undertaken on a motorcycle.

[madbikeboy]

it's that yellow bike that attracts quality attention

BIG BIRD!

Hahaha, now we're talking...but it be the wrong episode!

All this does make me wonder if the KB mentor system should be revisited.

That way the newbs would know who to trust.

Now that sounds awfully grownup and serious...makes me wonder how many of us would qualify

Probably only Cassina and axehole. Lets face it, between them they know everything!

NZSpokes,
Don't worry. I think that is already being covered off to some extent.

When I logged in again a few minutes ago, I just happened to notice that you-know-who is already
offering some hot tips via the Sticky Note ("Sitting Your Restricted Licence") within the Biker Politics
and Law thread.

I've already seen some hot tips both on head checks during a Road Test and on choice of riding boots.

Keeping you informed.

Cheers.

P.S. And if that is still not enough for you, I see that it is now "feeding time" over on the "1st to 2nd
Conundrums" thread as well. Spoilt for choice.

You don't have a TV either?

[AllanB]

End of the day any member can comment regardless of 'correctness' - yeah there is a risk someone may actually act on a recommendation but generally I find that a dangerous or incorrect recommendation is quickly corrected by the masses.

Makes for entertaining reading some nights.

George,
Hi. You don't need a TV with entertainment like this. It's straight to the PC.
Should have a Health and Safety warning, though.

Apart from doing some gardening (and filing financial papers for the accountant
to do the tax returns), I seem to have spent much of the rest of the day on the
PC for one reason or another. Sad, really.

And of course, while you're logged in, you just can't help yourself having the
occasional peak to see what new hot tips were being proffered .... Keep telling
myself "Don't click the 'What's New' button".... You don't want to know .... 8-)

But the rest of the week will be busy, so normality (and some degree of sanity)
should have returned by the end.

Cheers.

I would have thought some kind of qualification or something along the lines of.

Damn, I hope that doesn't involve a riding school of sorts, as I've heard we don't learn anything there...

That's really strange that someone would say that because some insurance companies give discounts etc to customers who complete Ride Forever courses. Why would they do that if riders "don't learn anything"?
