    ha ha ha this thread has turned into the funniest thing I've read in a long time. Hooray for bored bikers on rainy holidays!
    There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!

    3.Do you ride that?
    No its pink, I just got off it and took me helmet off but nah I just tow it here park it up jump on and off it and pretend
    But I say..."ummm yeah"

    4. Didnt know girls could ride big bikes like that
    .... I didnt know there were such idiots around this planet
    But I say "well guess now you do"

    All this in two hours

    When will a guy ask me about my bike with an articulated question so I can reply what I think.............sighhhhhh
    Articulated question? Like it's got joints in it or something?
    When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

    Prob do a day trip as its not far, prob need a better route though than boring old one. But I got no freinds that snorkel and have a bike and Im scared I might see something real big and freak. Its not as scary if two people see something, unless its a shark!
    What about a wetsuit and weight belt (cumbersome),I don't last very long in cold water. I ended up getting a drysuit,he,he(a bit restrictive and limits your freedom of movement). Sharks are over rated,most of the time you won't even know they are there(when they are).

    1. Someone who can clean a bike after or before murders
    2. Has no children (or no baby mama drama)
    3. loves camping
    4. can snorkel
    I'm sure you will find someone but I'm not sure they would be keen on item 1.

    The important thing about snorkelling/diving/swimming is to not panic ,remain calm.Whats so bad about seaweed across your mask?
    What you mean you got a permanent weightbelt ?

    Hate to burst your bubble() but fat makes you more bouyant,not less, it does however have great insulating properties.Hence my need for a drysuit ,being a skinny runt and all.
