She sings a such beautiful song

Like a finely pitched orchestra with perfect rhythm reaching an exotic crescendo that simply caresses ones senses, as she glides into the bends her pitch never falters.
Yes, the Blackbird is a masterpiece.

Maybe this is why Beaker hates bikes.

He treated his, like a car- I.E. with contempt and derision and never got to feel the perfection of becoming part of the bike as she becomes part of you. A bit like mind-melding, where the bike goes where you think.
It's difficult to explain. A car steererer just wouldn't get it.

You can't fall off a car.

You don't get wet in a car.

You don't get cold in a car.

You don't look like a knob in a car (there are exceptions to this).

People don't laugh at you in a car.

You lap faster in a car.

'Nuff said.

Thanks, Caspar. You have put into words what I always felt when I was having a good day on a bike. We, she and I, just became one and it was better than sex. Although I enjoyed V-twins I never had the same blending. I have a feeling that V-twins have balls so we could never meld. :eek:Many times (probably most) when I went out on a bike I would not achieve that closeness so would try to ride conservatively but on those special days when she and I were blissfully together the roads were ours and everything and everyone else on our roads were there to slalom.

1. I saw Jason Statham fall off the roof of a car in a movie. Therefore, one can fall off a car. Fact.

2. I passed a couple in an old MG Midget on the M4 with their roof off in the pissing rain. They were getting soaked. You can get wet in a car. Fact.

3. The heater didn’t work in my old Allegro (30 years ago). I was bastard freezing in the winter. You can get cold in a car. Fact.

4. I saw this twat who fancied himself as a bit of an Anti-Christ in his car, a Rover SDI. All dressed in black, black lipstick, died black hair, black nail varnish, dodgy piercings and an inverted crucifix around his neck. He looked a right cock. You can look like a knob in a car. Fact.

5. A female cock in a convertible Audi tried boy-racering me off the traffic lights when I was out on my Speed Triple a few years ago. Music blaring, revving her engine, staring across at me, all the usual shite. Lights changed and she stalled. Oh, how some people were laughing. People do laugh at you in a car. Fact.

6. A competent driver will indeed lap faster in a car than an equally competent rider on a motorcycle. Fact. However, I f’ind this a strange comment coming from someone who repeatedly writes comments along the lines of ‘unless your name is Valentino’. Therefore, this observation is irrelevant to use of the Queen’s Highway and only of interest to someone who might be considering a career in a form of motor racing.

Andrew, therefore, is again wrong on almost every level. Nothing new there then. Fact.

Point of order.

It is impossible not to look cool in anRover SDi.

There was a mint Austin Allegro at The Eastbourne Car Show last week.....was getting a lot more attention than the brand new Porsche GT3 (I think) which was quite amusing.

Best thing of all was there were only three motorised cycles there, and one of this was a Goldwing trike.

Trying to look like some sort of devil worshipper is not cool. This fool looked like a cock. A few months later I saw him working in a scruffy nightclub. That said, he did indeed look much less of a cock in the car than he did in the club.

My Allegro was the 1750 Equipe and it was a heap of shite.
