Used to love bikes, but I wouldn't go back to one now. I like my creature comforts too much - like adjustable heated seats in the winter! Came in handy first thing this morning ;)

Heated seat= kettle of hot but not boiling water and a towel!

'Heated seat' I remember on a bike: the steam from a warm pish, as the wetness seeps through your kegs, once you've 'let go' because you can't hold it in any longer!! :lol::eyebrows:

A mate many years ago who got this new girlfriend who was a right pain suggested she tries bikes for the first time... another mate, Percy (RIP) volunteered to take the dear girl out for a gentle spin.... 15 mins or so went by... first we heard the revs from some distance... then the screams from probably still 300 yards plus away.... If she was wearing tena lady then they failed in a big way.. yes literally pissed herself:eyebrows:

Bikes are crazy in this country... well Scotland anyway, as is a convertible. :lol: If its not raining its freezing for most of year. Brother had a convertible toyota sports car and you could count the times the hood was down for long. On a bike you need to wear so much protection its a pain. America, is a different matter though.:D Give me a nice luxury campervan anyday

Lol - that's funny.... Wetness indicator overload! :D

Some girls like that shit, though (the thrill of a fast bike ride), and they can get a little 'excited', so maybe the wet patch was caused by something else? :eyebrows:

I rode and cycled all year round, in whatever weather. A one piece waterproof suit keeps the worst at bay and if you wear sensibly warm gear under it, you stay warm enough as a rule. The cold can get to you on a long run though.

A little trail bike is a complete hoot in snow. All the cars wheelspinning and sliding around as you go sailing through. :D

If you ever hear me say that it's time to end it all..... AND you have some of the best biking roads known to man in Scotland! Last 50 miles or so of the road to Dunoon! A93 to Balmoral! First time I did the A93 it had signs saying "Beware: Motorcycles approaching at very high speeds" which I loved to bits! No trying to stop the bikers.. just warn the obstacles to beware :eyebrows:

7 times more likely to be killed on a bike than a car so I will settle for the 4 wheeler ta.
