we know you are dreaming now 'cos you said pass a biker, one on 'L' plates doesn't count.
Just remember it works both ways, when you are sitting in a traffic jam with the rain beating noisily down on the roof of the sardine tin and you only have your Chaka Demus and Pliers cd for comfort and a biker clad in gore-tex goes past talking on the phone or listening to music on a bluetooth helmet (yes they really do exist) whist keeping hands toasty warm on the heated grips and actually making progress through 4 miles of tailbacks that he will be home and shagging the missus whilst you are searching under the seat for that elusive last boiled sweet. Also women like nothing better than a man in tight leathers ;o) BTW we get used to the cold, riding at 100mph in 20 degrees during the summer still gives a bit of wind chill. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tim Leslie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, November 08, 2007 11:05 AM Subject: Re: [LU] Bike nerds > True true ...
