Are you a fashion conscious rider?

[Flatcap]

Let me be the first to laugh hysterically when you're asking someone to donate some skin to cover your arse. I don't really give a f*ck what people wear when they're riding if they've been taught the consequences

Quite right - in general I wear much more than the wife's underwear whilst riding......

Well said vifferman - It's all personal responsibility and the safety nazis can kiss my arse. If I want to ride my scooter wearing nothing but my wife's G-string on backwards thats my choice.

Please don't! please??

I sat at the lights on the way into work today. A very busy intersection in Welly, 3 lanes of traffic merging with another 2 lanes from the right (Coming from Thorndon along by the Train Station).
A very nice young lady pulled up alongside on a scooter. Little pink shoes matching the little pink jacket and matching pink fingerless gloves. Obviously very fashion conscious.

Stupid but fashionable!!!!!

She was not the only one I saw. Must have passed about 10 scooters along Thorndon and I would say only one had any kind of protection.

It never fails to amaze me, the stupidity of some of the scooter riders out there.

i had a lad in last night....young guy, late teens maybe....on "mums" lovely light pink nifty. took him about 20 mins to work out how to open the gas cap, lol. [even i couldnt get it]

but yeh....the number of poorly dressed kids on scoots is nuts....like that one girl the other night in bright red fluffy elmo slippers [you know, the thing from sesame street that harrassed rove recently] in saying that though, i ride in the same sorta stuff in the summer.
