A Harley, with all that vibration on your prostate, you'll stop going and start coming.

So I was in a truckstop bathroom a while back and this old weather-beaten leathered up HD type biker comes in and goes to the urinal next to me. He was straining so hard to piss and just getting a little trickle. All "NNNNNGGGGGH*tinkle drip drip*"

Walking across the street from lunch today, and I saw a young woman on a scooter. This isn't unusual, except that she was wearing a hoodie, a bicycle helmet, and hotpants. I hope she has good insurance.

I also once saw a girl in a t-shirt go down when she managed to drive her faggio into monumental pothole that caused the front wheel to instantly stop moving and the whole bike to comically flip forwards. I remember her standing up and her entire left side was blood.

A palate cleanser for all of us who hate distracted drivers. Bonus points for having a cop who is actually pretty cool. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=cc2_1418624275 edit Top Comment quote:I was driving on the Autobahn the other day and saw a guy literally playing on his tablet computer at 160 km/h! I was so shocked that I nearly lost grip on my beer. I told my girlfriend to stop blowing me for a moment and watch this moron. Chichevache fucked around with this message at 03:32 on Apr 28, 2015 |

I dunno, I wear all the gear on my Ninja but if I'm taking the scoot out then it's t-shirt and sunglasses. I figure the odds are roughly the same as riding a bicycle. Of course I really just keep it in my neighborhood so there's not a ton of threats to worry about.

I don't know if it's a full moon or what, but I had 3 near-death experiences on the way to work this morning, which is 3 more than usual. On the plus side, I had my camera going, so when I get home (IF I GET HOME) I can take a look and see what's up.

I got a live bee in my helmet while doing 80mph on the freeway. Definitely the scariest moment I've had on the bike so far.

There are some places in the world where yoga pants don't belong, and I managed to locate all of them on the ride in today.

I used to see a dude (I assume...) bombing his scooter around Evanston IL all the time wearing a green Army parka with a Storm Trooper helmet. Most gear I've ever seen on a scooter at one time. This was way before cell phone cameras were a thing or I'd have a Tumblr just for him.

There's a scooter guy who parks in the same lot as me. Every time I see him, I have to control the urge to just punch him in his prissy, smug face. Not even a helmet. And I'm reasonably certain you have to wear one even on a scooter here. My only joy comes in knowing that he will eventually tip over on his hipster Stella and probably remove himself from the gene pool. I am a bad person.

I still have my riding flip flops and riding swim trunks from 4 days in Maui on a scooter.

As long as "manufacture" doesn't mean "cutting the sleeves off of", I should be good. Right?

The average rider, no. This about sums up what I wear. Proper riding jacket and gloves, full-face helmet, regular jeans, leather-but-not-motorcycle boots. It's about what most of my scooter cohorts wear, too. Basically nobody wears more than that. In bad weather I add proper overpants and proper riding boots. But of the general scooterist population it's open-face helmet and whatever clothes you already felt like wearing.

I'll admit that I hopped onto the scooter with nothing but a pair of shorts, flip flops and a t-shirt whilst riding down from Magnolia to the Interbay.

I live in MA, which has helmet laws, but NH doesn't. Driving northbound on the highway you can see the first rest stop is always busy with bikers stopping to take off their helmets. So it's not like "I don't even have to wear one", it's "I'm going to take this off at the first opportunity". Most of them are cruiser guys who are only wearing cereal bowls to begin with, so I don't get it at all.
