Why I ride a motorcycle reason #6289 9/5/2006

I just got home after spending 2 hours stuck in rush hour traffic. 2 bloody hours which I could have bloody spent doing something more constructive, like drinking beer by the swimming pool.

I sat there, fuming. I had 4 liters, 6 cylinders, four wheel drive and 200 some horsepower at my beck and call, and there I was moving along at a speed barely enough to even make the speedometer needle even move off the rest.

I know why I prefer riding a motorcycle, even at the worst of times. And I don’t understand why everyone else driving a car doesn’t do so. It would make things so much easier for everyone. And save some of the planet’s resources in the process.

KY : If it rains, you get wet. No big deal.

riding a bike is no doubt fun (i’m sure you guys know about how funbags can be a lot more fun when they were pillion ridden…), but lugging along a helmet and smelling like petrol fume, is not.

Because it would be dangerous for a woman to ride around on a motorcycle alone in this city?

Because there’s nowhere to put suitcases or shopping?

Because it would mean i wouldn’t get to wear dresses and skirts?

Because I can’t put on lipstick at the red light with the helmet on?

(just kidding, i don’t do that last one in cars either)

IB : Would you like to try riding on the back of a 916 wearing a miniski… oh, wait…you’ve done that. :)

Spiller : So did the Goldwing I used to have. And for all other bikes, just one word…iPod.
