Whats a kitchen? bwahaha, I guess its my lack of finesse in this area contributing to why Im single lol

Hey cheers chickie

All I can say ladies is jump on your bikes and go ride ....ride slow, ride fast or ride crazy, but just make sure if you love it, ya just DO IT!

I've never really found discrimination issues. Long ago, i used to find male surprise funny. Miss 15 just got her lunatic plate and she gets lots of kudos from her mates for riding (no car licence yet).

I agree, ride it (hard), love it, do it. Who cares...Me! and that's all that matters - me and my bike!!!!!

I go up hugely in their estimation when I mention I ride a Ninja (of course, i don't tell them it is a 500 tourer, rather than a screaming sportsbike tho, can't shatter all their illusions!)

Yep, I used to be a teacher and I got that too. Of course, some of them tried to pretend that they weren't really impressed, but actually they were!

I bet you will find that the guys giving you shit would probobly like to have a bike and dont want to be out done by a woman biker weather it be mx or road. There still isnt enough woman bikers.

Life is way too short to worry about what others think. There are a lot of judgmental people out there, who really have sad pathetic lives who just like to moan, whinge or put others down to make themselves feel good, but who really cares what they think, you do what you love to do and if that's riding good on ya!

I for one havent had any discrimination really, a couple of people I know have started up riding once they found out I did it, my mums friends think its cool.

Re his attitude... if you're not happy, trade up, PLENTY of guys think biker chicks are seriously hot, and there ain't enough to go round.

Yeah trade up....Lets see what ya look like ? ?

Im looking at trading down atm...

Crazy Steve..

Personally, I dig girls on bikes. There should be more of them out there. Its all the guys getting defensive about women getting in on something that was predominantly a guy thing, even just going against the grain period! Same thing with trades, most female electricians get grief from the guys and most of the time they do a better job!

Just smile and nod and them, jump on your bike and ride away, instantly feeling better and forgetting them in an instant.

Welcome to the fun side!

Biker chicks are super hot...

**portokiwi** · 21st December 2008, 10:22

its true....... Chicks do look hot on bikes. Allways have and allways will.
Its hard to describe but its like seeing power on power.
I know pulling up at lights or just seeing a women on a bike will turn heads.
They just look good.

There are some ppl that have prejudice toward motorbikes in general. When I did my 1st ever "big" ride I was staying at a mates place and his flatmate said: "Why do ya want to ride a death machine like that?", my reply: "Cos, I really love riding a death machine" (or something similar).

There is always someone with some preconceived idea about almost every situation in life, so just enjoy being you and love what you do...oooo, that's very cheesy!!!

p.s The thing that originally inspired me to ride was watching a doco on 4 women riding across America together! I thought I gotta do that!!
