    I Love my wife and children.

    I love my bike.

    I have it all.



    Good to hear your back in the saddle bro, I might have to find my way over there and have your neighbours remember what a pleasure, peace an quiet is
    Yeah, i'm slowly learning that it's pointless debating my opinion on here, just state it, and leave it at that. Everyone has different priorities.

    That said, always keen for a ride Patch, let me know when!

    Thanking 70% of bikers for being idiots (not wearing full gear) is an opinion that you don't to debate.

    I used 'on the back, mole' once. She was too shocked to hit me.

    that's amazing

    - those are exactly my thoughts, too ..... well - except for the one word, that is .......... about partners that attempt to stop one from riding

    "A battle standard for our personhood" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

    What I wear isn't up to you or your wife mate. My choice, not yours. NZ would be a better place if people could respect other people instead of labeling them fools or idiots for "doing it wrong!"
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    sometimes its easier to say nothing...... just walk out to the garage, get on and ride away.

    But if the choice that she is making him make is because she dosent want to see her man fall and get hurt (or worse) then you shouldn't need to question if they love you!!!

    I say good on ya, you love your girl and your bike!!!

    Should be the most two important things in any mans life girl first followed closely by the bike

    Absolutely agree, one of the reasons that she was OK with it, is because she can see that I am taking extra precautions over a lot of other riders.

    As for "labeling" them idiots, that's my opinion. Many people who vote for National think Labour are idiots. Fair call, not my problem.
