They got me spot on.
People with topboxes Buying one of the most impractical transportation devices, then spending large sums of money fitting heinous-looking steamer trunks a metre higher than the rear-axle of the bike, and declaring it suddenly 'practical', is the act of a train-spotter. Or someone who paints in water-colours |

Brilliant To outsiders and beginners, people who ride motorcycles might appear to be one big happy family. Like a giant borscht of head-nodding mutual admiration; all brothers (and sisters) of the handlebars, riding as one on the highways of their dreams. But it's not like that at all, and the following motorcycle riders are to blame… L-platers on Kawasaki Ninjas It may have a lot to do with the poor Ninja sounding like a tin of gravel being kicked down the road when a can is fitted to it and it is being bounced off the rev-limiter through the first three gears. Their riding gear is cheap and mostly second-hand, they smell of fear and bravado in equal measure, their chains are unlubricated and their tyres are flat in the middle. Counter-steering is not a concept that can be explained to them without it ending in tears of confusion. Many of them belong to Facebook sites, which are echo chambers of their own massive ignorance and contain many pictures of people who have parked their vehicles in ways they don't approve of. They can be found… On weekends, the braver ones can be found crashing on winding roads close to the city, or being processed like hams by the Highway Patrol who feeds on them like whales eat plankton. Outlaw club members The bikes they ride are not like other Harleys. The colours they wear cannot be bought in any shop. They are currently being crushed under the government jackboot for being too scary-looking, but they can still be relied upon to always drink from the skulls of their enemies. They can be found… People with topboxes Buying one of the most impractical transportation devices, then spending large sums of money fitting heinous-looking steamer trunks a metre higher than the rear-axle of the bike, and declaring it suddenly 'practical', is the act of a train-spotter. Or someone who paints in water-colours. They can be found… Adventure tourers Like BMW riders who only speak with other BMW riders and God, Adventure Tourers only speak to other Adventure tourers. And it's usually about places they plan to go, but never will, wearing gear made by German scientists. They can be found… People who ride Chinese motorcycles They live a life of disillusionment and despair, especially when they find out how much a $4000 Chinese bike depreciates 12 hours after it is purchased. They can be found… Scooter riders They can be found… Bearded women who smell like expensive coffee More fond of looking like sexually questionable lumberjacks, their skill-free riding is usually done en masse and informed by relentless good cheer. It's almost as if they imagine that no-one's ever belted a grinning buffoon before. They can be found… The ATGATT crowd The sheer danger of motorcycling makes them uncomfortable, so rather than upskilling themselves, the ATGATT crowd (All The Gear, All The Time) wrap themselves in Dainese-brand cotton-wool against the inevitable disaster that awaits them. They can be found… Riders who've returned after years off the bike Few of them make it past their first 'big trip', and most will usually give it up after falling over at a service station, or being rear-ended by a bus on the first day they decide to ride their new bike to work. They can be found… |
