Nodding code?

I'm a newbie and only a pillion still - but for me there is a certain amount
of admiration I afford to those who've actually got mastery and skill of the
machine - and they are beautiful beasts there is no doubt.

I was on a long walk home from the station in rural England the other day in
leathers and carrying my helmet - hot as hell and bedraggled when a wee old
lady on a scooter tooted at me and waved with a big smile - she must have
been 80! It fairly lifted my spirits - and also that she's that old and
still has oomph - IYSWIM.

I think the fusion of machinery and friendliness is Romance

Take my advice, I'm not using it.

 

You appear to have me confused with Champ.

I can't stand Orgi, I only ever wear black denim and the only things I
like about the 70's are Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin.

 

"ingrained cultural stereotype"

 

Yeah, the leather just gets in the way of the whole scars thing.

 

Have you ditched the denim jacket over the leathers look?

" "

 

well I thought that would be the reply but I left you the option ;-)

I dread to think what you were like on the R30.

 

You need Botox.

HTH.

 

Which dictionary did you get it from, Champ? Because if it was the
OED, I'll supply dog with the name of the guilty party.

 

You're coming along nicely.

 

If I came across *anyone* on a remote country road in inclement
weather in obvious difficulties I'd offer to help. That's because
(contrary to how I may appear here) I am a decent human being. Not
just a "biker".

 

I'd stop, that's for sure. I'd also stop if there was a car driver or any
other vehicle user in difficulty.

 

I rather like that.

 

ISTR that they resolved this with some sort of suicide pact with a
neighbouring force.

 

"chewing bus tickets and talking to lamp-posts"

 

Learners don't really pick up enough detail to spot waves and nods, 'cos
they're mostly fixating on the 20 yards of tarmac directly in front of them.

No, I haven't fired her. Just made some space. She's cool wih it.

 

Has anyone seen this guy and Wizard together at the same time?

 

Have you ever nodded to a biker when you were driving a car?

Wizard rides a GS550E, but close enough.
