    Man, I came off the front of my bike yesterday doing stoppies. No helmet. No gear... in jandals and a shirt. Went a bit past 'bedtime' with the bike.. silly me.

    BUT this happened to be on a pushbike, and has happened to me many a time. You learn to fall and learn how to hit the ground without whacking your head - I guess these people do. They know the risks, so just fuckin let them take them.

    IMHO........ There is a time and place for most things and cruisin around on the back of a bike at 30-40 ks is not too bad in a controlled environment I wouldn't have thought.

    Just glad when I go Scuba diving I take similar safety precautions to what I do with my road bike. Shit that guy was lucky in Cook Strait yesterday. Ten points for the vigilant person/s on the ferry.

    In saying that I ride a farm bike nearly every day, but always make sure I have good footwear. Don't spose ya can get brain damage twice????

    You're making the assumption I want to. That's the Harley disease; Delusional Envy.

    I beg to differ, if we were to park our bikes side by side somewhere with the keys in them, guess which one would get stolen first!

    A rather expensive way to prove a point though.

    OK Shad. Point taken. But I responded to your post in which you claimed I wanted to ride your Harley.

    Now when I park my bike next to Harleys guess what gets the most looks. Not the Harley. The other thing I notice is that the girls seem to notice Guzzis more than any other bike. Don't believe me. Next time you see a Guzzi parked up watch the woman. The can't help themselves. They just love our big 'balls' hanging there 'side by side.' My bikes a fella. What's yours..................???????

    Hm. so women love the look of Guzzis cos of the "big balls hanging there side by side"

    So, does not that mean, by corollary, that men who ride Guzzis are gay? Also attracted to them by said big balls hanging their, and an urge to ride something with big balls?

    Well maybe we shouldn't go that far, I was looking at a couple of Gootzies when I was shopping around.
    I kinda like them actually. I'm not bike-ist.

    But would either of them actually start first time?

    Kinda shameful stealing a bike to only make it 500 yards up the street or be traced by the trail of oil.......

    My petcock always gets shut so yeah thats probably as far as they'd get first off.

    As for the oil trial you speak of.... I think you'll find that's actually drool.
