Well, the good news is you're not blind. The bad news is you're still you.

I love my bike. I'm still really happy I got that instead of a super sports bike. I rode an r6 last year and jesus fucking christ it's uncomfortable. As you can see the riding position on mine is very comfortable and given the fact Ive put 8k kilometers on it since October of last year i think i chose well. I drive long distances on a daily basis and get paid to do it. Doesn't mean I won't get a bigger bike next time but for now this bike is perfectly suited for what I wanted.

Probably means he's being reimbursed for travel cost. You know, like any other clown with a job.

I do make 49 cents per kilometer. However that's on top of my actual pay. Thing is if I have to travel more than 100 kilometers I'm supposed to rent a car and i get reimbursed for the rental and the gas. However me and my bosses have an agreement that if I use my bike I can just claim 100km no matter how far I go.

What would cost them 80$ now costs them about 40$ so i save them money that way. I pay about 6 - 15$ in gas and I get to pocket the rest as opposed to getting nothing extra with a rental. I'll rack up about 1500km in a month.

lol, who gives a fuck about getting paid for driving your own bike on company business. I do it in a $50k company vehicle. Nothing to brag about...

C'mon guys, Kracus' life is shit enough as it is, let's give him a little bit of credit for being a little more creative than a brick for once by striking this deal with his employer. Given the circumstances, it's not a bad deal at all.

I hear the internet is a great place to find information about things like average temperature in other countries.

I'm with Kracus on this. Very satisfying having someone pay you to drive your own vehicle. I go one step further and factor in wear & tear, servicing costs divided by how much time I spent in the vehicle between and on the jobs, and then I add 30% to the final fee.

That's all well and good, but it doesn't really count if your cock is not freezing off.

I take it like a man. It wouldn't be work if it was easy.

I don't get to decide on how much I charge them since I'm an employee of the government and these things are outside of my control but I DO get the same rate they give to cars.

I just love riding though honestly, I'm going to be taking another course near the end of the summer that focuses on track racing.
