mini-muffin Posted December 30, 2009 #2 Posted December 30, 2009 I can't reach the ground on the bikes we have. How's that for an answer?:crackup::crackup: Margaret
Hummingbird Posted December 30, 2009 #3 Posted December 30, 2009 garage door is frozen to the ground and it won't go up or I would be riding
BoomerCPO Posted December 30, 2009 #4 Posted December 30, 2009 BTDT just once over 3 years ago....Rode a C50 Boulevard all the way to New Jersey to attend a Patriot Guard Mission. Got caught by an in-coming storm and rode 70 miles through a real mess. Boomer....who sez ya better expect to run yer pucker factor off the scale for that kinda riding.
loehring Posted December 30, 2009 #5 Posted December 30, 2009 That doesn't exactly look like a full dresser he's on either. I'd ride in the snow on a dirt bike too.
oldgoat Posted December 30, 2009 #7 Posted December 30, 2009 i was allways told chicks dig scars. then i came to learn this is why doctors drive bmw and benz cars. want to bet the car ahead was owned by a docotor
BoomerCPO Posted December 30, 2009 #8 Posted December 30, 2009 i was allways told chicks dig scars. then i came to learn this is why doctors drive bmw and benz cars. want to bet the car ahead was owned by a docotor I wuz told that too long ago. It's an outright falsehood. Boomer....who sez scars will send the wimmen running fer their Mother's and leave ya hanging with their Bar Tab.
GlennTuc Posted December 30, 2009 #9 Posted December 30, 2009 Is that a two-wheel drive Beemer? Them europeans are always up to something. My wife and the people here at work say I'm nuts for riding in some of the weather I ride in, but I ain't doing that. Glenn

atlm Posted December 30, 2009 #11 Posted December 30, 2009 I only owned motorcycles from when I was 15 until I was 22 (that's when I finally bought my first car). I used to ride year-round, including 2 years in Massachusetts. People thought I was nuts. I was just too poor to buy a car. Snow wasn't too bad, but I lost count of the number of times I hit ice, and the bikes slid out from under me, sending me sliding down the road on my arse. Besides the bruises , it usually also cost me 2 turn signals, on whichever side of the bike ended up hitting the road and grinding. Those old Honda Super Sports were rugged. Now I'm a fair weather rider only, because I can be.
BoomerCPO Posted December 30, 2009 #12 Posted December 30, 2009 http://i720.photobucket.com/albums/ww202/BigBoyinMS/ColdBeemer.jpg ROFL!!!!! The term "Buyer Beware" comes to mind. Boomer....who would prefer to be planted in a graveyard rather than planting his wrinkled keister on a BMW.(this comment is NOT intended to offend ANY person who chooses to own/ride a BMW )
Monsta Posted December 31, 2009 Author #13 Posted December 31, 2009 I only owned motorcycles from when I was 15 until I was 22 (that's when I finally bought my first car). I used to ride year-round, including 2 years in Massachusetts. People thought I was nuts. I was just too poor to buy a car. Sounds just like me! I would ride my KLR650 when I lived in MA no matter the weather...until my wife put a stop to it. Somethin' about needed me to be around to provide for my family...
KarlS Posted December 31, 2009 #14 Posted December 31, 2009 :cold: + :snow2: = and and:mo money: Not for me.
Patrick46 Posted December 31, 2009 #15 Posted December 31, 2009 I rode my jockey shift '46 knucklehead all year round in Wisconsin for 3 years before I finally bought a car...and with bald tyres too! (my wife sais that I'm good looking as hell...but I ain't the sharpest pencil in the box)
tooldood Posted December 31, 2009 #16 Posted December 31, 2009 You could get there in this one... http://jalopnik.com/5437106/finally-a-sidecar-based-on-an-f4+f-wildcat http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/12/2009/12/500x_wildcat_sidecar.jpg
Yammer Dan Posted December 31, 2009 #17 Posted December 31, 2009 I win most of the scar contests now. I walk down the beach with this leg and say "you gotta watch them sharks out there" Makes them look!!
First_N_Last Posted January 1, 2010 #18 Posted January 1, 2010 Like ATLM... My car broke down in the seventies & I had to ride my 1968 BSA 441 to work for a week through the snow. In the real slippery icy spots, I would sort of stand over the buke on the road, hang on to the bars & let it pull me along. That was in Rochester, NY many years ago when I was absolutely STUPID! johnb
saddlebum Posted January 1, 2010 #19 Posted January 1, 2010 I rode my canam 250 TnT through 2 snowstorms in 1976. it wasn't half bad until they plowed the road--- thats when the fun began---the slick surface they left behind was a nightmare.
YYZ Posted January 2, 2010 #20 Posted January 2, 2010 What's that saying? Genius has a limit but stupid doesn't? My friends dad was a cop and years ago they used to put side cars on for the winter. Brrrr.
saddlebum Posted January 2, 2010 #22 Posted January 2, 2010 I THINK THIS SAYS IT ALL:bawling:Well All I can say is there is no excuse for not using the BBQ, since it can thaw itself out.
