    Lens cleaner. The amount of times i've had bug hits and smeared them only to find i'm now half-blind. Especially bad when you are riding at speeds too fast to lift ya visor lol. Then ya get bug-in-the-eye :slap:
    ..There are only two things that matter in this world..
    the front wheel and the rear wheel...

    Ditto! Not good when you need tools to get to the tool kit.

    How do you carry your bananas without them getting squashed?

    I usually take my lil' day pack, bungyed to my rear seat, with a warm sweater, scarf, bourbons and jandals & hat. Everything else...wallet, phone, smokes etc. fit in my jacket.

Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true ... they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so all are easier to fool." -- Wizard's First Rule
