If you are thinking of Buying one make sure you increase your life insurance, the way I have seen these clowns control the bloody things around the Barroford to Settle road amazes me, OH before I forget, make sure your coffin has the inscription on saying, I SHOULD HAVE HAD SECOND THOUGHTS, thats for your family.
hmm maybe my ex husband and father to my children should have had the foresight before he was mown down by a Horselorry driven by a stupid person who was careless.Too late to ask his opinion but hey i'll ask my kids if that inscription on his coffin would have eased their suffering.
Thanks for that :)
Thanks for that :)
Another pillion here.
In the winter, bikes are cold and you get wet. In the warmest weather, you still have to wear protective clothing and helmet (and if you don't, you're an idiot). You can't carry as much luggage on a bike as in a car, and you can't take your pets on most of them either. Also, too many drivers either see you as a legitimate target, as the devil incarnate or just don't see you at all. By definition, a 'bump' means you're more likely to be injured or killed than if you're in a car.
On the other hand, they can be cheaper and cleaner to run than cars, don't present so much of a parking problem and enable you to bypass city traffic.
They also mean that the woman in front driving the red MR2 is more likely to pull over and let you pass, won't slam into your back wheel at the lights and will happily let you out of that junction. ;-)

lol thats all helped alot! and i have taken notes of all the bad points and although there are more than good, i still really think im gonna bike it. just gotta try and find out where to learn and stuff now. and i am a careful driver, i mean who wants to die anyway? just driving like a mentalist just increases your risk either in a car or bike. yeah TWR i dont think ill have that on my coffin mine will say something like 'oooh so thats what it feels like...'
for most of the reasons above, i use my car for long distances, motorway driving, family transport, warmth in winter and for pluggin in me ipod and bombing it to soe phat beats.
i use my bike for fun, frolics and generally pootling about local areas during the summer months. its just for fun really and only i ride it, so mrs kou and the little'uns are eft indoors.
