    Get a shift-based job then
    But be careful, sometimes you wont be able to ride on Saturday when everyone else go riding.

    Best to stay as professional students if you wanna go hard out riding

    or a bum.....or a millionaire's son.....or marry an old millionaire widow

    Reminds me of that Jackass episode when they went poo diving.

    Talking of nice riding days. Freakin Beautiful down here, and me with no ride.

    Ah well, judging by the huge increase of bikes I saw out today, it looks like lots of sickies have been pulled and much enjoyment is being had.

    What a bastard of a job -trying to fettle a sports bike. I hated every minute and wished -as i aproached my favorite corner at some Insane speed that I indeed was one of those lucksy people who ride whilst all of dorkland is out in their cages.

    after my last post I discovered EXACTly how far a zxr750 will go on a full tank. Its 255.4km . Not 255 or 256 nope 255.4 -- Ohh and zxr750's are heavy to push given that the nearest gas station was 1.4 km from where it ran out -ohh yea and note to self -make sure you hook up the hoses the right way round next time I have the tank off . --ooops
    Ahh fugit who cares -saves on weight training.
