    • Are we there yet?
    • Wouldn't it be cool to have a Kiwi Biker wave!
    • Where's a good place to get my bike serviced?
    • How come Americans ride on the other side of the road?
    • That guy in the car that cut in front of me the other day is a wanker.
    • Who else thinks that Honda riders are gay?
    • What's best, leather or cordura?
    • What's the best helmet I can get for $150?


    This site has been going for over 10 years. Most questions have probably been asked before. There's a search window in the top righthand corner. Use that before going off like a lame dickhead and asking one of these questions for the gazillionth time. American forums are little different to ours.

    Did you not notice the comment was aimed at AllanB??

    'YOU' are irrelevant...

    Or thin skinned.

    or something...

    Hey Hitcher, not quite 10 years yet (so not over 10 years of course) and it can't be until we've had the party.

    I find the intellectual level on forums in general disturbingly low. But if you REALLY want stupid, try the TradeMe forums, particularly General, Parenting, and Opinion... ugh.
