Fuckin squids in Wanganui letting the side down

[jrandom]

Hope there wasnt too much damage to the bikes muffler!

No, it was fine. Stainless steel on plastic, guess which wins?

[skidMark]

Does anyone 'plan' a crash??.....

I think cycling on the road is more dangerous than riding a motorbike. Have you ever seen a cyclist in full leathers? Are they all dumb, irresponsible cunce for not wearing armour?

I'm sorry but a successful wheelie is cool, end of story.

OTOH, if you ding a car while splitting, you are certainly a ghey.

yeah i got blimin close splitting up to lights once....ooo that looks a touch narrow.....oh shell be right just get her smack down the middle...

click click as my mirrors perfectly evenly nicked the mirrors of cars on either side...the slightest touch...felt fucking guilty.....

anothertime i hit just one mirror just ever so slightly nicked cus a guy stuck his arm out the window....

[ElCoyote]

i regularly ride in a tshirt... hell sometimes i will ride in a sleeveless shirt.
my only major off, my protective gear was an open facer helmet and steel cap cowboy boots. i was also wearing jeans, a singlet and cheapo warehouse sunglasses.
i landed on my back [i think] and walked away.
my legs, which were the most protected, are fucked. i cant kneel for long periods without my knees locking. my left lower leg is nothing but scar tissue, and even shaving is agony. a slight brush of a finger is almost enough to send me through the roof in pain. pillioning for more than an hour on a sprotsbike means a bit of staggering on my part when i get off.
my upper body, i got two small knicks in my thumb and the lens came out of my glasses.

Waiting for a discourse on your dick...........now that would be interesting. Not

[Usarka]

Two things wrong with this thread.

1. why the fuck were you in wanganui anyway?

2. is there traffic in wanganui that you can actually split past

3. 1400cc is a lot of squid.

[carver]

Yep, there are plenty of wankers and idiots out there on bikes too.

It's always a few that ruin it for everybody else.

oh yeah?
whats been ruined?

[99TLS]

Cool. We can really start some proper trolling with stuff like this!

[cowpoos]

Right, I'm afraid I can't really let this go any longer.

Whoever it was riding around town in Wanganui on Boxing Day in shorts and jandals, tinted visor down and lanesplitting like an idiot, you should be ashamed of yourself.

Particularly when you squeezed past that 4WD at the traffic lights and whacked a great dent in her front bumper with your exhaust!



It's that sort of foolish carry-on that brings motorcycling into disrepute and cements the opinion of the majority against people on bikes.

I personally think that such behaviour is absolutely uncalled for and detracts from an otherwise great atmosphere. I'll never wave to or otherwise acknowledge such idiots on the road.

And as for the fellow riding in a T-shirt on the blue R1 and pulling wheelies down the street past my motel, all I can say is, it's time you realised, sir, that they're neither big nor clever.

I didn't think you were the jandal wearing type bro!!

[Hitcher]

One understands that there may have been a 5quid loose in Wangas on Boxing Day. Strangely coincidental, perhaps?

[sinned]

I was riding around my town in shorts and a T-shirt the other day...... Is there a problem with that?? Wasn't planning on crashing.

It is not a good look but is it more or less risky than riding a bicycle? Plenty of cyclist are riding around at close 50Kph with little protective clothing. I followed one down the Ngauranga gorge at 80kph - not a good speed to come off at.

So riding sensibly (no wheelies) in light clothing at 50ks is probably a reasonable risk.

[Big Dave]

Was good tho eh Dave. Is true though.

I can't do shorts. Just makes me feel wrong-g-g-g.
Draggins and sturdy boots min for low speed.

I pootled around on a Cruiser in an open face and tee shirt for a while this afternoon. Aware of the risk and took it. Lived to tell and rather enjoyed it.

Not the sort of thing I want noobs to do though. Strongly advise ATGATT until expert standard.

Conversely the fuck-knuckle that quite dangerously 'undertook' me the other day, while lane splitting on his 50cc italian scooter up Gt Sth Rd, I was pleased to see wearing jandals, singlet and boardies.

[CBR97]

Yeah ,
i bet these people have unprotected sex aswell,
fucking loser,s, doing things on moto bikes, in unprotected cloths

what will they do next?
its just gets worse and woser each year, and i have had enough,

we should have some more laws to stop people doing this sort of thing, maybe a cop in the bedroom just to make sure they wear a condom,

give me a badge and ill take care of the little fuckers,

and some people protest against abortion, when all we need to do is kill the little fuckers before they go out and ruin our good names,

And we all know that KR wouldn't run pics of someone stunting while wearing a T-Shirt eh?

[ynot slow]

Who gives a flying fark about what anyone does?

It's their choice,i.e wheelies on public roads,so called non protective clothes,time and place for sure.I am always riding with boots,jeans and leather jacket,even just to go up town.More chance of an off around town and 50 km with teeshirt although cooler temperature wise,means bad rash in crash.Easy to take jacket off if having a drink or shopping when ride ends.

Had an off 17 years ago in town,had jeans,t shirt on and boots,we had a 90 degree corner by our house so max speed was about 30km,wet road, quick zap to dairy 400mt away,return,about to turn bend car almost on my side,swerve to miss get one wheel on grass one on road,by by.Had a small scratch on hand which caught the loose chip on edge of road,sore leg,but learnt a lesson that day.Joys of a suzi er 185 nice and light to shift off leg lol,and the farkin car didn't stop,just assumed I'd made it.
