    Ahh. Bunched knickers are common on the Buell groups currently too.

    So I guess my plan for riding in the BIKOI wearing lycra cycling gear (with cycling gloves!) is out then?

    Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes. After that, who cares? ...He's a mile away and you've got his shoes

    Beware of too much starch in your petticoats, BD! Those things can be very dangerous in an accident.
    There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!

    It does look like petticoats will be de riguer for the BIKOI doesn't it?

    Would you mind dropping my stuff back when you've finished with it? (Ironed of course...)

    (better not have stretched anything...)

    If anyone can link the article you will see that he did not ride away, he got on the bike, turned it on then gave the throttle a wee twist, (for the camera) I didnt see him ride away....

    We might be missing an opportunity here actually.

    If thousands of us turn up on the day wearing shorts t-shirts and jandals, saying this is what we'll be wearing when we have to spend the extra dosh on on rego.....

    THAT would make a point

    That echoes a thought that occurred to me earlier.

    Many people either don't understand the value of decent protective gear or simply can't afford it, for some that extra dosh they have to fork out every year may well impact on the decision to buy better protective gear.


    So, lycra it is then?

    No missed him....

    But it just goes to show how some people perceive things to be, one would automatically think he was going to ride away because he was on his bike.

    It was a bit worrying the way the camera focused in on his hand though, perhaps TV1 practising a bit of negative subliminal messaging?
