For the first time since I've had my bike (since September) I'm bottling it and not riding to work. Gawd, it's just disgusting out there.

Excellent call. Too many people think they have something to prove and don't want to appear chicken. If you're not happy with riding in that shite then don't (assuming you have an alternative that is!)
The positive side of all this weather is........snow on the mountains!![]()
Pah, I rode.......
but i did think about it (and might leave the bike at work tonight)
1990 Suzuki Bandit GSF 250 for sale 39k kms $3,500
May be snow at lunch time today....

Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.

we will remember them
Youse guys are all poofters.
Harden up...
It only water falling from the sky, and a bit of a breeze.
Jeez...
And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

bring on the snow!!!
Need something to do when not riding??? Come and learn to dance with us at www.cerocstars.co.nz
Yeah, well it's cleared up _now_ hasn't it? Besides, I needed reminding of exactly ... how ... tortuously ... slow ... it is using a cage. And nine bucks for parking. NINE! Sheeat!Originally Posted by riffer

Ha, at least you didnt have to take a bus!Damn I forgot how much those things suck! Im sure it costs more to take the bus than the bike - a bus costs $2.50 to town compared to $12 for 150km's with the bike... And yes bloody Murphy strikes again, the weather seems to have settled a bit now...

Today was heaps better than yesterday.
My draft excluder gave up when I got bogged in inner city traffic. It was like looking through a goldfish bowl.

If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
Harden up... I rode in today without any probs (of course, I am in Auckland, so that may make a differenceOriginally Posted by RantyDave

It sure was fun on SH2 this morning. Dark as a dark thing and bloody wet. Probably should have put my clear visor on.
My gear is still dripping away beside my desk, and I'm hoping it dries befroe I set off home.
I'd still rather ride in the wet than sit in my car stuck in a queue.
Call me a pussy cause there's no way I'm riding in this shit with cagers that can't see cause their windows are fogged up and they end up driving worse than they normally do.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy
I'm just glad I don't work on Mondays![]()
