    I had no biker friends so went on a "biker ride", I wasnt told you had to be a "poser" and turn up in full moto GP riding gear, and stand around for an hour before the ride telling everyone how you are a GP GOD.Bugger that

    I pretty much convinced all my buddies to get bikes and ride, now the group is around 20 with more hangers on the fringe.
    I used to organize lisence test days for all the newbies lol. Bikers for life.
    I am freindly really, I only bite when provoked

    Vague arrangements to go riding with sort of relatives that ride bikes and their dodgy associates, and people I work with, and neighbors that happen to have bikes

    So in terms of the poll, none (or all) of the above really.

    I'll go out on a ride on a weekend, meet up with some people, ride along with them, and often never see them again.
    It’s finding the time to cultivate good, lasting friendships that I find the hardest.
    To have a network of likeminded people you can trust to be there for you.
    True friends that you know would stick with you through thick and thin.
    People you could spend a long weekend with and not get in each others space.
    The truly genuine friend, one that you could pick up off the side of the road at 3am, with only the feeling of concern for their wellbeing, and not the imposition.
    It’s a shame that most of the people I meet are such fuckwits.
    We all have our little obsessions...

    It won't let me tick all of em !

    Had to re-read it and yes it did read biker buddies so being the friendly sod i am, most i meet i could say i buddie up to lol

    Some i ride with, i rode with 300 years ago. Some i met in the last 5 years since my last breading cycle. Others i have met through here and have ridden with and would be happy to ride with anytime.
    But i think this summer is going to be a fun one, with a core group of like minded ppl that have a common interest and somewhere to ride to and leave from !
    Most of the work is done and spring has sprung, can't wait till the the fun's begun !

    Must find a radar mount !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    I have room in my life for loads and loads of friends....especially tall handsome ones that ride triumphs, or ducs, or kawas, or yams, or suks, or buells, not sure about the Honda though.
    Gee, I'm a bike mate slut! Bring it on.....I'm enjoying meeting some new people!

    I don't really have any biker mates. Other than the dude who sort of got me into riding, but I don't really ride with him that often 'cos he's sorta more into his car. Ride to Puhoi or Whanga with him one in a while though. I need to get out on more group rides. Hopefully the missus will be getting a bike soon so I wont have to take the car if she's coming anywhere too (only have restricted and not too keen on the fine if we get caught, plus the 250 aint that quick two up)
