    Blah Given up on motorbikes!

    After some time looking at the pros and cons of Motorcycle ownership...

    I have decieded to give up....

    They are to expensive.

    To dangerous.

    To useless.

    And to much trouble..

    I do how ever see my myself traveling to work with one of these hopefully some time soon....

    Some people just can't seem to comprehend that they do not have the right to be unoffended in their lives.

    Problem... Pilot: Must weigh between 63.5kg and 108.9kg. That'll be one expensive hairdryer Steve.

    The first mid air collision will make history.

    Trouble is that neither party is likely to survive enjoy the fame.
