    LOL! Absolutely true MadDuck! I had forgotten about the shirtless boys on their rollerblades along the waterfront. But shirtlessness should be reserved for those blokes without beer bellies. Beer bellies AND stubbies.... eeeewww!

    And perhaps we should add as a hazard: the glare from all those white bodies that have been covered up all winter and haven't had time to get a tan yet.
    There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!

    I can think of:
    • Sweat dripping in your eyes from being fully clad in heavy leather
    • Heat exhaustion
    • Sun reflecting off oncoming vehicles.

    Apparently if you press your tongue hard to the roof of your mouth before you sneeze, you can stop it. But I've only ever remembered this after the fact . . .

    That’s about it
    Northland - the tar bleeds are like little streams, running down the road. THEN they put fine river shingle/grit all over the road to try and absorb it (well, to stop it splashing up the sides of the cars...). And half the time - NO SIGNS!

    Blowflies like open visors too. And vented MX style helmet mouthguards. SPLAT - spit spit spit...

    And the wet cowshit turns into dry cowshit - and it's just about as slippy!

    Try to smoke or drink when riding with your helmet on because its to hot to stop for one when your wearing the leather gear, because the day looked a little crappy in the morning but ends up being way to hot for leather in the afternoon.

    Seasonal Summer Hazards:

    1. Low Sun Strike.
    2. Having to contend on a daily basis with "Sunshine Bikers"
    3. Having to travel twice as fast, because my bike is now running at a higher temperature (Officer )
    I'm NOT Homophobic!! I am not afraid of my own house.
