    Riding and Txting

    While me and motogirl were out having her birthday dinner we saw a sight never thought I would see.

    Someone riding there motorbike and txting at the same time.

    They went straight thru a roundabout around a corner over train tracks, all 1 hand while holding phone infront of them in other hand

    Amazing site, one i never really believed I would see.

    Sorry, there's another thread somewhere round here like this

    Hmmm Tauranga...? Maybe it was DMNTD..? Did the rider have a crutch too?

    But how do you text and throttle at the same time? I can't do anything ambidextrous............

    You just rest your forearm on the grip/clutch lever and lean forward. It's best to text while in 3rd.... Ahh I mean ...

    I did it once on a bicycle, will not do again.

    It's on my list of Bad Ideas, along with:
    Juggling hedgehogs.
    Stuffing slippery soapy frogs up my arse.
    Dressing like Elvis.
    and taking off my fluro vest. I even sleep in it.

    There was no need to share that

    Yea have seen it quite frequently on scoters round auckland, saying that these are generally the same people that are wearing t shirt and shorts, weaving in and out of traffic, and need to be removed from the gene poll cause god help us if the manage to breed.

    For the record Qkkid was in my bed, not the other way round

    Some poxy old mid-80s 400/600. The dickhead was wearing shorts too! He sure looked like he was waiting to smash into the arse-end of something while he wasn't paying attention....

    I do it quite frequently, usually not through traffic, but sometimes I feel the need is great enough.
