    Sizeist discrimination against scooters.

    Awhile back I was getting a tyre fitted at cycletreads and was also coping a bit of shit from other customers because it was a scooter.

    My shoulders were stooped forward and I mumbled as my eyes were cast downward. I'll show those bastards.

    Its good to see motorcycle and scooter solidarity now with ACC levies but even better if the scooter bashing remained less in the future. As a sub? species, scooterists are your closest relatives and there is safety in numbers. Just for the future.

    Hey, we'll even allow Honda riders to stand beside us on this issue. Hell, gingas can come along too.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    As a closet honda rider (my main bike being the ducati) and a ginga beard I feel welcomed by that.

    So a ginga riding a honda scooter must be feeling pretty included then!

    It is sooooo terrible when someone "borrows" your lippy. Like "ewww". Ya know?
    Much safer to keep the handbag under the seat of the scooter.

    Hell no, over here the scooters more or less stick together...elsewhere it all gets a bit auto v manual, classic v modern, lambretta v vespa, 2-stroke v 4-stroke...

    It seems to me some fellow motorcyclists have and inferiority complex about scooterists. It must be because we require a 'step through' area on our bikes to house our enormous gonads
