It's the only time I'm totally in control of my destiny and destination, I'm sooo fookin henpecked it's unreal.

Ah, it's just fun innit, most of the other options at one time or another but now just because I want to and just because I enjoy it.

Why do I ride?

Same reason I drive a car - cos it's bloody boring just looking at the thing, and both vehicles are bloody hard to push.

I ride cause golf is for fags and its difficult to pull wheelies in my car. Not to mention the funny looks I get driving along the motorway wearing a helmet.

Seriously my commute is 35 minutes on the bike and an hour and a bit in the cage City to Upper Hutt. Also its funnier to ride through a camp ground naked than to run.

An It's in the blood, riding/riders are a special breed, never yet ridden,or driven past a fellow biker in need.
