What a miserable way to get about!
That is all I have to say about this subject really.
This is a very timely thread for me. After 10 years of not really wanting my wife to get a bike, I relented. The first picture is her new bike (5/4/07). The second picture is after her first solo ride (5/5/07)...and trip to get stitches. That is all I have to say about this subject really.
What I don't understand are these Florida laws. An adult can ride a motorcycle without a helmet, but a child can't ride a bicycle without one. Question: Who knows which side of the road a chicken wants to be on just as you pass by on a bike?
Guess its all about life choices. Dropping trees is very dangerous too - or many of the other things talked about here on FF.
We adults already know it all and start at the top of the learning curve. You really have to watch that first step, it's a long one.
I stopped riding my Honda 700 Sabre after I hit a Deere.....
Tomboysawyer , The way He spelt it the Deere had to be Green with Yellow wheels.
tcmpsi, I scared the everliving scrappola out of myself on one of those Kawi 750 triples. Nothing like being on the centerline scraping the pegs and facing a Kenworth at over 100mph. Life was grand when we were young and bulletproof.
She sat down and started cleaning me up and proceeded to tear into me, full blown lecture, about the evils of riding a motorcycle.
There's even a more fun part to the story. I got up, had it out with the moron for a few minutes (he of course thought he was perfectly justified backing a farm tractor up the center of a public highway), got back on the slightly dented bike and rode to the ER. I had somewhat turned my left elbow into hamburger. So I got there, helmet in hand, got into a treatment room, and this ugly old moose of a nurse came in. She sat down and started cleaning me up and proceeded to tear into me, full blown lecture, about the evils of riding a motorcycle. I got mad, told her to stop what she was doing, get the %(&^ out of the room and send in someone who knew how to do their job in a professional manner. The look I got was, as they say, priceless.

I do like to push the limits when I'm riding so I've decided never to get a street bike, all it takes is coming into a corner quick and a patch of sand...
