Lane splitting/filtering: the legal and commonsense answers

[Bald Eagle]

And anyway that's what I have my music for it's a great way to turn that part of the brain off. (The part not used for riding )

Damn I must be doing it wrong I use all my brain for riding.

this one time, this guy lost a bet, had to go to walart, buy a copy of 50 shades of grey, a cucumber, and a tube of KY. i think it got put on the internets.

Did you wear sunglasses during the purchase of said items?

Most grown ups do, noobs will click onto the idea soon enough.

...but not before they've finished telling us all how to ride!

[James Deuce]

I've been waiting to be told what to listen to.

It's all part of the 'fitting in' process, some progress pass that stage quicker than others, once they realise that nobody cares, or in fact... listening.

I'm amazed at how these young riders seem to amass instant motorcycling knowledge, straight after learning to ride. Like, they know everything about riding, it's bloody scary. I wish I knew their secret.

Funny that.... I have wondered the same thing.
But then at 17 or so we were all ten feet tall and bullet-proof, were we not?
I drove a fug-box for two years before my first bike, and I think it helped as I did have some basic road-craft programmed in when I got on to two wheels.
One thing I do know for certain though, and that's that riding a bike made a much better car driver of me!

I'm sure you all know how to suck your own eggs. I'll do mine this way for now, you never stop learning. Well I don't at least but I'm sure I'll find out that there is a 1 and only way in this whole world to suck an egg.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who can think of more than 1 thing at a time while commuting.

And here comes another Edbear axeing thread...

I thought he sold batteries, not axes?

You women can multi-task, didn't you know?

I have one train of thought when riding at all times - where the bike is going in the next second, what could stop it from getting there, and how I would get around that if it occurred.

The last time I rode with someone who didn't follow that mentality, they ended up in a mountain side at 80 km/hr.

Scaremongering, nah, just reality when you're the second weakest link on the road in terms of survivability (vehicle wise, pedestrians don't count).

Hehe OMG we can?!?!? I was too busy breathing and cooking to think of that.

[Kendoll]

*sigh* why hasn't anybody told me this before?! I've been doing it wrong all this time still, to be honest, I find it hard to think about other irrelevant things when riding... which I reckon is a good thing!
