what does having a bike mean to you.

you can rant away or one liners but do think about it fir a tad.what is it you enjoy most and hate most about biking.ect.... lets see if wee huv any poets in this hoose.peace

Not having to rely on mine as daily transport, my bike is purely for pleasure. That's not to say I don't take it to work. But when I do it brightens up my day.
The Scottish weather disappoints way too often. As long as you don't mind getting wet it's not a problem though.
The social aspect of biking has been excellent. I've met so many great people through attending rallies or just randomly meeting while out and about. I wouldn't give it up for anything now.

gusto.to g-force

when i passed my test and got my bike, i went out for a run, it was the middle of january. When i passed another biker, i got the nod, that makes you feel like your part of a community.

I'll tell you another thing.. I reckon being a biker has made me a better, safer car (cage) driver!

tru that i cant stop doin my life savers in the car when the fine lady is driving

Nothing else can make you grin ear to ear in behind that visor on a cracking day with nothing but a clear road and your mates around you with the odd act of hooliganism every now and then on the way. You dont need to go anywhere in particular but you just know that your going to enjoy every second of getting there!

true

That nice day out with the lads, enjoying roads and view!

It's the same all over the world! I'm just back from holiday in USA and got nods and waves from almost all bikers we passed.
Puts a smile on your face alright!
