I have a coworker who owns a Honda Rebel. She's always acting tough and thinks owning her motorcycle makes her even tougher (even though she's only put about 600 miles on it in 3 1/2 years).

So the other day when we were talking about motorcycles, I couldn't help but steer the conversation towards making comparisons. I said riding her Rebel would probably feel like riding a scooter to me (which she hates scooters). Hahaha, it was so nice to see her squirm knowing it was true.

Just had to share.

 

Dude, you're doing it all wrong. Gotta sucker those types into thinking they're riding a friggin monster beast of a bike. Then on the odd day that she rides in and you're on your bike you can have a bit of fun. The next day you see her you explain that you'd have been even faster but you had a plug wire off and were missing a cylinder

 

Haha, I would, except the chances of us riding in to work on the same day, or her riding in to work at all, are nil.

I like to take every chance I get to kick the bottom of the ladder out from under her.

 

Ya, I get it ... been there and heard the hype. In that case, might I ever so humbly suggest you print out a spec sheet showing her bikes weight/HP ratio and yours.

 

We'll need pics of the co-worker to get a better idea.

Why down someone for riding? Yeah, her bike ain't yours, but if it makes her feel like a super-hero, this is bad...how?

If she's just got a crappy personality, I'm in favor of just avoiding her, altogether.
Why subject yer-ownself to the abuse?

Remember and live by the "Golden Rule", build karma don't destroy it.

Just my take on life, Ern
