What is new in your little world?

[xer0s]

Thanks Whiskey and sCII.

Geoff my son is 18, has school and works. However, I make time every year to do a week long trip with just the two of us. My wife and I also do at least one week long trip a year with many little weekend/holiday vacations sprinkled in. But since I have more vacation time from work, I take trips like this to indulge my joy of travel and riding.

Holy fuck, you’re a boring cunt...

[YourGrandpa]

Sparks fly I guess too?

So I've been told.

I am taking a short road trip to Sydney next week and attending The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo show, the major (pun) reason for the visit

[Eraser]

Can you give just a general idea or what to expect there? If necessary, just send me a private message.

[Eraser]

Jesus Christ, Whiskey, I was only joking :olo:

[Κracus]

lol, I did a group charity ride back in September and some idiot on a cruiser oversteered on the most gentle turn and went right into a ditch, destroyed the bike. Most people on cruisers have zero riding skill, it's hilarious.

I ride with a group fairly often and we had one fellow on a cruiser join us once. He drove into a guardrail trying to keep up with us... I have seen some talented individuals driving cruisers though but I suspect most people that are drawn to cruisers aren't necessarily the types to learn more advanced riding techniques.

I too have scraped pegs on the ground but I've done it on a sports bike that has higher peg locations. That said, I still haven't scraped the pegs on my Z900 and I have no chicken strips on my tire so I guess that probably won't be happening on this bike.

That's just it, they never learned properly because "learnin's for fags!". It's only a matter of time before the average blockheaded Harley rider gets his skull bandana and chrome radio filled with dirt and leaves :olo:

[Κracus]

Depends on the rider. Every bike segment has its share of assholes.

Harley Rider - Stuck up.
Sports bike - wanna be racers
dirt bikes - hooligans on the streets
mopeds - people that want to look gay.

You get the idea... I may get a cruiser some day, and that day will be when I'm unable to get my leg over a sports bike.

Jesus Christ, Whiskey, I was only joking :olo:

I am a helpful soul generally and you seemed so sincere. My mistake.

Don't sweat it. It's just that I thought the italics use in the words "general" and "private" were enough to emphasize the puns I was trying to make

[Eraser]

Oh wow, look at Mazda and Kracus being tough bikers.

No sweat here

Have I hurt you? :tear:

[YourGrandpa]

I suppose some people struggle with the concept, "different strokes for different folks". Basing a person's skill level on the type/style of bike they ride is ridiculous. Every class/style of bike serves a purpose for the rider. Not everyone needs/wants the riding experience of a sport bike. Just like some people find cruisers bulky and slow. We're all in the wind for a reason and every style/class of rider has it's fair share of morons.

Though I can tell you, the Tail of the Dragon would have been easier and more fun to ride on a sport bike. Because there's not much lean in my bike.

[Κracus]

People need better reading comprehension. I litterally said it depends on the rider and proceeded to list various assholes from different groups. I guess Eraser must feel like he's Valentino Rossi's successor.

[Eraser]

I guess Eraser must feel like he's Valentino Rossi's successor.

Uh, yeah, because I'm the only one here not talking shit about other people? Great logic

[Κracus]

again, reading comprehension, you lack it severely.

Know, I just got the pun :rolleyes:
