How does your pillion hold on?

    I've seen pillions holding on either around the waist, using grab
    handles, pillion pals or no holds at all. But today I saw a rider and
    pillion on a Pan and the pillion had their arms wrapped around the
    rider's neck.

    I may have mentioned my old mate Mad Malc (no relation to Alex AFAIAA).

    His method (when pissed) would be to flip the rider's visor up, insert
    an index finger into each eye socket, and use the rider's head to
    machine gun passing cars.

    Ho-ho-fucking-ho.

    That didn't seem to work so well on the infamous "Mountain" run, TBH.

    Heh. Not many people took him as a passenger twice.

    He once fell over at a party I was having and cracked his head open on a
    fireplace. He was wheeled around A&E saying "Hello! My name's Malcolm
    and I'm concussed!"

    The doctor decided not to waste any NHS anaesthetic on him and stitched
    him up as he was.

    He then came back to the party.

    That sounds like Simes.

    Linda considers holding on to be a bit girly, though she also thinks
    that placing the flat of her hand between my shoulder blades is a
    helpful thing to do when braking heavily.

    See? This is the sort of behaviour (sadly lacking in today's youth)
    that earns one the 'Mad' prefix.

    Totally different from the 'Black' prefix.

    True, she didn't hold on until I pinned it to catch up the riders who,
    after scattering to the 4 winds were disappearing up the autoroute
    with the map.
