How many times have you fallen off?


They get the Juliet Death Stare for this one!

It just irks me that everyone assumes because you ride a bike therefore you fall off, well I've never fallen off so there!
Believe it or not you can ride defensively and carefully and stay on a bike! ...lol

Do I ask them how many times they've crashed their cars?

They ask "Fallen Off"? That's odd. Normally they ask if I have crashed it? Falling off sounds like you lost your balance and fell off the bike.

Which you should get one of those T-shirts that says "If you can read this the bitch fell off". It'd be halarious to see a woman with that shirt.

We just tend to say fell off here..maybe an English thing but I know what you mean, does sound odd when you think about it...you always hear "won't be long before he falls off his bike riding like that!"...just us then ...lol

"What type of bike is that?"
"How fast have you've gone on it?"
"Have you laid it down yet?"
"Do you touch your knee down in turns when you're out riding on the streets?"
"I bet that things fast....IS IT?"

I told a friend who asked that "no...it's all show and no go!"

Next to her at the lights in her Audi TT I blew her away...lol

On one of the last fall days before the weather got too crappy to have me out riding for fun on the local cruising strip near my house... the following thing happened.

Road Speed limit: 40mph.
Situation: Rolling away from a stop light, 2 cars deep in the center lane, 20 feet behind a pickup. Lowered Civic beside me starts honking his horn. The driver and his friend get my attention and start giving me the "wheelie" hand gesture. I point and have them lower their window. When it's down I yell "You first!"

This next part makes me smile. The driver looked puzzled for a second, then he starts punching and letting off the gas, making the car sorta "bounce" along, like he was trying to do a wheelie (in obvious Jest, he was cracking up the whole time). I start laughing and do the same thing back, smile, then wave and take my next turn.

Just made me laugh.

When people see my bike they usually ask if I've talked to Chuck Norris since kicking his ***.

HAHA- tkr, i get that question all the time about my 954rr. Why didnt you just get the 1000? SOO annoying. I just say "NINE FIVE FOUR R R" really loud and obnoxiously, then they understand. It just sounds sweet, and ive beaten plenty of 1000rr's with my 954, so I'm definately satisfied.
