    Oldies on bikes?? Never. We're all still young
    If the destination is more important than the journey you aint a biker.

    “A recent phenomenon is lane-splitting "

    Since when has this been a "recent phenomenon" ??
    Some have been doing it for years, interesting that there is no specific lane-splitting regulation though.... wonder if i can tell THAT to a cop?

    If you love it, let it go. If it comes back to you, you've just high-sided!

    Every time I get a new one it's faster that the old one. Where the f..k are the regulations when you need them. 20 years times my estate should be able to sue the govt for their recklessness.

    Probably not much different, there's still a fair few old mods and 80's scooter boys keeping the demographic greyer and balder..

    84% of all injured motorcyclists and 93% of motorcyclist deaths are male
    But what about the actual Male : Female ratio of the people actually riding the bikes?
    What would be more accurate would be what percentage of male riders crashed vs what percentage of female riders crashed...

    I will no longer be able to ride on a Sunday afternoon or weekday afternoons (getting home from work might be an issue here...).
    Morning rides may be more popular however!
