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.
