Wheelies in Orewa Grand Drive today?

[PrincessBandit]

hahahaha, that reminds me of the very first red rep I ever got here - for daring to complain that some shithead pulled a wheelie, oncoming and overtaking, on the Maraetai coast rd towards me and my son awhile I was shepherding him on one of his first motorcycle rides on his L plate.
nothings changed I see.

Hey, who were the two fella's in Grand Drive today heading towards Aucks. I was comin home from work around 4:15-4:30pm on my Green Speed Triple when coming the other way you two legends came past.
Now what is normal is the usual Nod, hahaaaa but not for us, instead I gave the nod, and the black bike at the rear pulled a nice well controlled wheelie, so it would be rude not to respond so I upped mine to and gave a one handed wave at the same time.

I think this should be the new method of recognition, no gay waving, just wheelies. Respec my brothers/sisters.

Hmm didn't you just post a speeding ticket earlier today?? Only 20 demerit points. Very lucky man given the way you ride

I am lucky, sometimes I get provoked when I should administer self control..... Learning more restraint. There are alot of mature and sensible riders on here now........... never used to be the case I might add, back in the day, this sight used to be a place where dare devils and excitement was a daily topic..... These days its more about abiding speed limits, respecting the law, and bein dignitaries of the 2 wheeled society...........

My Goodness, how it has changed lol......

Hey Dipshit for brains, why don't you trade yr GSXR600 for a Harley or cruiser you pussy noob jockey!.....

That's the thing... There's too many immature wankers on bikes that think they can define motorcycling by the wheelies they can pull or their chicken strip state.

So if you're not bothered with either of those dick measuring wank factors then somehow you aren't a real motorcyclist in the eyes of those wankers.

But then who gives a shit what the wankers out there think.

Exactly, why worry about what they think. However my wheelies and tyre exploration has nothing to do with wank factor, rather it's something that gives me personal satisfaction. Oh ok, it is wank factor! But it doesn't define motorcycling, and I couldn't give two hoots whether anyone can wheelie or not or what size their chicken strips are, in fact I couldn't really care what motorcycling does for anyone. It's not my business.

I'm still walking .. was on 100 ... dropped to 75 - then got 50 points for 136 klicks .... clearly it's wasn't quite enough incentive for me !!!! Six weeks left of a three month suspension.

Yeah ... but the same is true that there are too many straights tryng to define motorcycling on their terms as well - and some of us don't buy into that either. You think the young bloods are wankers ... they think you're a fag ... both a load of bullshit !

This is a Kiwi biker forum, not a Kiwi motorcyclist forum ... I'll admit to being a biker .. I'd feel insulted to be called a motorcyclist ...

People ride for a range of reasons, on a range of bikes and in a range of styles and ranges of illegality from not to full on ...

Who cares ! Get over yourselves ... we all ride! I only care about what you ride now, what you think of it and what your next bike might be ... Egos and attitude are both bullshit ...

Motorcycling is about more than image.

Motorcycling is about more than image.

It is?. Like what then?

Yeah maybe ... it's still a term from the straight world ... for me Motorcycling is about rebelion - always has been, always will be ... my form of rebellion has changed from FTW (which I took off my leathers about 16 years ago) to speeding ... it's still rebellion ...

Yeah ... I bet it was ... it's all the people who've joined since that are arguing ...
