Bike related truisms

[Tank]

truisms (an obvious truth).

There are 000's for biking -

* If you are going to fall off getting on / off your bike - it will be in front of a hot girl / guy.

* You will need to pick up something fiddly - right after you have put on your gloves.

add yours to the list - best one (Judged by me) - gets a green bling - as soon as I'm allowed to bling again - (around end of March of sommin like that)

If you run out of petrol, it will be somewhere that involves a long walk uphill on a hot day in full leathers and/or a great deal of humiliation such as a motorway.

You remember your earplugs just after you've got your gear sorted, helmet nice and snug and climbed on the bike....

Self-congratulations on your awesome skills will guarantee you fuck up the next corner badly and experience the fear of death for 1/8th of a second.

That's because we all coast to the bottom of the hill hoping to get just that little bit further......

[Headbanger]

If you touch any part to see if its (still) hot, it will burn you.....

You are most likely to fall off while doing a wheelie and will usually happen just after you have given the safety briefing before a ride.

But I was riding uphill! oops...er...I mean...that never happened to me at all! It was purely hypothetical

[Hiflyer]

if you stall with a flat battery it will be on a motorway onramp (uphill so you cant jump start) in peak hour while you are near the front of the queue resulting in you having to wheel your bike backwards down the onramp. (personal experience haha)

Any ride will end in doom if it starts with the thought "It's nice day today... and no cops..."

Thursday night group rides in North West Auckland will see plastic will being broken, and dirt being plowed

The one time your wife reads KB is immediately after you post that one little incriminating message

[ManDownUnder]

You will:

• pour petrol down the tank while filling
• dismiss or not worry about it
• get that petrol on your crotch while mounting the bike
• burn your nether regions all the way to the closest source of treatment and a change
• only ever do this once
• try to keep it from your friends
• be the butt of jokes from all those friends that have already earned their "burned balls/flaps" badge when they do find out

[*]get that petrol on your crotch while mounting the bike

I understand that is quite painful...

When the bladder is REALLY telling you to pull over and take a wizz, there is zero cover as far as you can see. Might as well be riding in the Arizona desert for flatness, so you have to wave at the passing motorist's as you moisten the ground.
