my son's teacher rides a GPZ750 (1950 model i think

)
now in my book teachers set good examples....or is suppose to ...am i right?
i decided to "pop" up to morrinsville this morning and i have to go pass luke's school..(20km/hr of cause!) when i was passed it i started to speed up ...to 100km/hr honest, when i saw a bike coming towards me, head light off (i ride with mine on...personal thingy) i recognised the ride as i was waving, then i noticed what he was(n't) wearing, he had his leather jacket on, red jeans (those 3/4 ones) and SANDELS....

now i ask you, as everyone (the kids) see's him wearing that gear, what kind of example is that????
sure i ride in jeans, and sand shoes, which i know are no match to leathers etc, but at least i'm covered!

Hahaha, red 3/4 jeans, you sure he is a "male teacher" I mean, sorry.

Yea personally I think that is has has the dumbass- ness (Is that a word) to ride with sandels on then he doesnt have a foot to stand on if he tries to tell students or other s to ride safe, personally I think that his first fall will result in alot of expensive gear buying and many lectures on the danger of 3/4 jeans!

Oh yea, thats if Mr.

doesnt get to him first with a nice fine.

Sounds like a classy fella with those red 3/4 jeans and sandals.

3/4 pants and sandals - hmmm. What does his boyfriend ride (apart from him!)
It is your duty as a responsible parent to mention your concerns to him - you don't want Luke to start wearing 3/4 pants and sandals, now do you?

Thats bloody disgraceful...

I'm sure that there is a council by law (or an old charter or something) that requires ALL male teachers (of any gender) to wear 'down at heel' tweed jackets with suede patches on the elbows, knitted ties and brown trousers and matching shoes....

I mean what IS the world coming too.... Policemen won't be wearing uniforms next and... Oh! Hang on...

Ah hem...

Anyways... Don't expect teachers to be perfect. They do a heck of a lot for bugger all as it is. I'm sure he would rather be riding an MV or a HD with all the kit....

I hope he was wearing socks with those sandals - we have standards you know.

Saw this dumb fucker on a hornet 900 today. Open faced helmet was the closest he got to "protective" gear. Seriously, shorts, tshirt, canvas shoes, no gloves. Just wanted to go over to him and bitch slap the asshole. People like that shouldn't be allowed to own nice bikes, that should have to give them to someone more deserving, someone like me for instance.
