    Statistics say Chicks on bikes are bloody dangerous!

    Survival skills? Hell ladies, it looks like you all need lessons!

    From Lula's link http://www.motorcycletrader.co.nz/Vi...Night/837.aspx


    • Of 110,000 registered bikes in NZ, 11% are owned by women.
    • Of that 11%, 26% are riding bikes over 750cc.
    • Women riders make up only 17% of all Motorcycle crashes.

    So let me extrapolate: Only 11% of bike riders are chicks yet they have 17% of the accidents.

    There are therefore 97,900 blokes on bikes, 12,100 chicks and an indeterminate number of transvestites, 5th sex's etc.

    lets divide that down to an even 1000 overall by % to make the numbers easier to fathom. 110,000/110=1000

    97900/110=890 blokes
    12100/110=110 chicks


    If there were say 1000 bike accidents per year amongst the total, then 830 of them would be by guys and 170 by chicks.

    830/890=0.93258 accidents per bloke rider

    170/110=1.545 accident per chick rider


    On that basis, chicks are almost 70% MORE likely to have an accident than blokes

    The obvious point therefore is that blokes are better riders


    Thanks for that raw data Lula..........................chuckle

    Lets continue a bit:

    Off and on for a fair while, many of the bikes I rode were registered to my wife. I rode them much more than she did. She NEVER ever bloody ever rode my bikes (vertically challenged). Even when I almost never rode her bike/s, I always rode at least 5x as many km's per year on my own bike/s.

    If that is a trend in the community (chicks owning bikes ridden by men and men riding more km's per annum), then the 11% who are chicks actually ride significantly fewer road miles than blokes and, on an accident per kilometre ridden statistical scale: chicks are WAY more likely to have an accident than blokes.

    Any of you floosies need some lessons? I'm quite cheap ya know.

    Hell yeah mate, I totally agree! I should never have been allowed to get my licence, I mean I highsided at the 'circulate around the carpark so that I can see you can ride' bit before I started the BHS test started...

    Lucky for NZ that I dont have a car licence. Just think of the damage that I could do!!!

    110/110=1 accident per chick rider shudnt this be 170/110?

    ....wow! and you have taken SO much interest in this why???????

    Seems its a pile of horseshit in reality. I regularly ride with at least 8 chicks who all cover many many miles on the road(more than most sportbike riders I know) and yet Ive never seen/heard of them binning. Unlike 90% of the 80 or so males I regularly ride with who have binned and binned. Or is it just that more women tend to INSURE their rides??? Therefore the statistics are very clouded. Not to mention the amount of dudes Ive seen bin....then run and hide LOL

    dear flame, personal anecdotes do not statistics make.

    i've seen a dog hump a cat but that doesn't mean all dogs hump cats or that all cats enjoy dogs humping them


    insurance is irrelevant unless you are trying to make a point BESIDE the fact that chicks are bloody dangerous on bikes
