Drinking & Riding??

[slowpoke]

lol I wouldn't take the keys away from a harley rider...

PHUKK NO....you might become contaminated!!

[Goblin]

...spit stops anywhere the circumstances dictated.

Lmao...like when I rode to a 1nitestand with a flat battery on my bike, got horribly pissed & tried to ride home hungover. Everytime I needed to spew I had to first find a hill to park on....then rip my lid off to

[mikey]

On Friday night I was out on the piss on the Shore with some mates... And we went to 3 different bars/pubs in Browns Bay, which are all crap by the way... and fucking homophobic, I'm not a big drinker myself.

so for starters, your gay.
second your drinking,
an less importantly you think 3 bikers rode home after having a few beers an your running around like chicken little screaming "the sky is falling the sky is falling"

its no excuse but as long as you dont kill anyone/damage anything, (apart from your bumper when you drive into your gate to open it) its

a
nz culture
b
govt/legal limit is BS!
c
fun
d
less hassle.
e
good for having sex in if you stop on the way home.taxis arent.

anymore reasons needed to drive home when your not so sober?

I am so pleased that in my days of youthful folly, full face helmets had not been invented, and bikes had magnetos, and were not reliant on batteries. But one of the most difficult cleaning jobs is removing spew that has been baked into the fins of an aircooled engine.

M'self, I blame the electric starter (makes a change from blaming Mr Biff. But he prolly is to blame anyway. Cos he's Welch y'know). Back in the day if you were sober enough to kickstart a big single (a taxing exercise even when sober) y'could reckon you were OK to ride. And if weren't like as not the kickstart lever broke your leg.

Two Speights in the first hour for me, one an hour after that. Works for me.

And, no, I don't know why the devolutionary element of society have to get their jollies from hassling anyone they think is different. Personally, if I have any problems at a watering hole or such like, I simply leave (and at times I've done so without paying, if I haven't finished a meal). And don't go back. Over the course of a year, I spend a fair bit of coin at such establishments. If one of them doesn't want their share, that's OK by me, there are plenty of others who do.

So........ not too many people drink and ride/drive but who has a smoke and rides?

i can stuff a Marlboro into the vent of my HJC and puff away on the morning commute .. that count?

[Ixion]

I smoke prolifically when I ride. In fact occasionally motorists have difficulty seeing me for smoke. Wonderful it is

dunno whether it's ok to comment, pf - and totally no disrespect intended .... but how would they know? i mean, i'm sure that you DO encounter prejudice because of your orientation but mebbe losta folks either wouldn't notice or [like most of us on here, i suspect] don't give a damn?

------- mebbe they were just looking at you because you were 4 nice-looking ladies??

The short hair n dress sense usually give it away...

[oldrider]

Long term hard learned lesson, piss and motorbikes are "not" a good mix, keep them separate and enjoy both.

What do you do that makes other people identify you as a lesbian or any other kind of ian?
Do all you Aucklanders have to walk around with a freaking great "label" on to tell everyone what sort of ....?...(whatever) you are?
Is it important to now all that?
If I sit down and have a chat, beer, etc with you, do I have to declare that I am a heterosexual male Caucasian catholic of Welsh Scots Isle of Man decent and a fourth generation Pakeha New Zealander, before I can chat to you about "motorbikes"? Our only common interest!
Auckland has sure changed since I lived there then!
I don't give a stuff who or what your preferences are, I just want to talk about bikes to you. No labels needed. John.

[jrandom]

I don't give a stuff who or what your preferences are...

*I* do.

I need faces to put in my voyeuristic girl-on-girl fantasies, dude. Don't deny me one of life's small pleasures.

No offence taken... it is pretty obvious... me and my mates (and Sam) are not your type of lesbians that look like every other chick out there, we all have short spiked hair, pretty much all wearing "butch-ish to boyish" clothes... my mates are very staunch, Sam is often confused as a boy... then a gay boy... and then omg... its a lesbian... the 3 stages of looking at Sam for the first time... its hard to explain... but believe me... you'd know if you saw us...

[SARGE]

Sam is often confused as a boy... then a gay boy... and then omg... its a lesbian... the 3 stages of looking at Sam for the first time... its hard to explain... but believe me... you'd know if you saw us...

hey .. sounds like Fish's kinda party...just chuck a dalmation into the mix and we wouldnt see him for days ...

We promise not to judge you on being lesbians as long as you give us all free access to that website your going to run from home

Surprised in this day and age you got that much flack in a bar, particularly in dorkland which is the multicultural PC capital of the world I thought. I'm pretty redneck and even I dont mind lesbians snoggin in public as long as they are beautiful people. Scary old middle aged lesbians going at it are like fat people in lycra, its just not kosher on the eyes!

gosh Lias.. i didnt realize you were so shallow ... (p/t)

seriously PF.. fuck the hillbillies.. if it makes you happy just b happy .. very few people ever actually find it in their lifetimes ..

i wear an American flag patch on my coat and i really could give 2 shits if someone dont like the US ... their loss cuz im a good bastard and they could do worse than having me as a friend..

be true

[placidfemme]

lol thanks Sarge and Lias... but yeah you'd be surprised at how many are negative towards us... not just in pubs... we walk down queen st and still have people shouting things out to us... and those homie types following us up the road making comments... its all part and parcel of being who we are... 9 times out of 10, its easy to just brush it off and ignore it... but sometimes its a lot harder... and for me... especially when they pick on the people i care about (ie Sam)

But like you said Sarge... they could do worse than having us as friends
