I simply cannot understand them at all.. Maybe I'm some weird kind of male/female hybrid.. Got the body  of a woman, but the mentality of a bloke!!!!

| Re: You Know You Are A Biker When... My wife can't really understand why we take 3 days to get to the Supers and 3 days to get home on the bikes when you could fly there in 3 hours with less cost. Thats when she says I'm odd. |

| Re: You Know You Are A Biker When... If you still have a bike after three major accidents, four totaled bikes, one theft, a wife and two kids... and even when you are broke, you buy the best tires for the bike. |

| Re: You Know You Are A Biker When... How about this one....happened for real to me yesterday.
When your mother (or significant other) says that she should never ever have let you near a bike, because now you love bikes so much that you don't have any love left at all in your heart for anyone else...and she says it with a tear in her eye.
Funny thing is, part of me was like, "WTF? Did my mother REALLY just say that?" But the other half of me was yelling, "That's what I've been saying FOR YEARS!!!" |

| Re: You Know You Are A Biker When... You know you are a biker (read Fireblades.Org addict, article writer and moderator) when you clear out one of the drives on your pc and label it Fireblades..
...........(I need somewhere to file all my fireblades.org stuff!! Is 30GB going to be big enough??)

| Re: You Know You Are A Biker When... True story. The night you pick up your brand new 954 you park it inside, in the family room and get caught sitting on it in the dark at 1;20am by the wife. Also you check it is still there a couple of times through the night. Not to be deterred, when you get up for work you sit on it eating your weeties and have your cup of tea sitting on the petrol cap. And then you are late for work but you have a smile on your face like a blow fly would coming out of a toilet. |
