Unsafe, irresponsible, 'ooligan behaviour!

There was a hint of disapproval in the OP's original post, just a hint.

, "why bother". And I guess the OP has answered his own question in the later post - testosterone.

Testosterone doesn't play a part in why I perform the odd stunt, I ain't got nothing to prove to others, although I do take delight in the comments I get from people, but that is just a by-product. The reason I do get her up on one is purely for my own satisfaction. Being able to do these tricks (and just for that matter riding fullstop) is an accomplishment that I am proud of due to my situation.

As OAB says, "Fairy Snuff" :-) Maybe I don't do it 'cos I'm a wuss!!
I think testosterone plays a part in all we do, bike wise. I mean - I even get a buzz just showing off and cruising gently past the latte drinkers - whether it be in Martinborough or Courtney Place!.
I think we all imagine that we have the greatest bike in the world and we all love being watched as you pull in at your favourite bike stop.
But I also think bikers are great at admiring each others bikes. (er...well maybe a few HOG riders are a wee bit blinkered!) It's what makes us all such nice people innit? Do you think car drivers have forums like this?

,,Do you think car drivers have forums like this?

Yes, they do. Well, car drivers who drive cars that are more than shopping baskets and drive because its more than a way to get to the office, do. Not *quite* like this of course! I doubt civilisation could take more than one KB
