    "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to madbikeboy again"



    My best friend (a biker chick who used to ride a zxr750) had a heated discussion with my F-I-L (rabidly anti-bikes) at our wedding that went along similar lines!

    Well done.

    An alternative is to state that the government would be better off banning knees as they are much more dangerous than motorcycles. When you get the 'huh?' you promptly knee him in the nuts and reply 'see, very dangerous...'

    You definitely won that argument, but you might not get invited to many more barbecues...

    I'd let the original comment slide at a BBQ - This one is the one I would have fun ripping to shreds.

    Incredibly safety conscious.

    I think we both gained something from the experience, the list of BBQ's are getting shorter which means I gain more time wrenching on my bikes, and he gained some insight of my rudeness....
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    Is it inevitable that guys don't like their future father in laws? What is it about screwing a guy's precious daughter that irritates father's so much??

    Is your husband open minded about you having two husbands? I think I'm unlikely to get permission from Papa for the current's hand in marriage... LOL! He hates me more than anyone... Ironically, I treat his daughter with immense respect and caring, but I won't drink with him...

    He says if you pay half the mortgage, pay half the vet bills, do half the maintenance on my bike, mow half the lawns, take out half the garbage, hang half the washing....are you getting the picture?

    Cheers for the now-archived quote MBB!

    man i hate that conversation... might have to remember that one, especially when everyone gets shocked and surprised that i ride (if they dont know me) and then joins in and it seems that they think its even more dangerous just because im a woman!

    Thanks for the laugh and the witty idea!
