    I have a mate who said he got his knee down in the wet in his jeans, I would believe him but the day before we went out together and he went straight on round a bend and was being passed by sheep as he ran it off the road!

    Have to agree, this is the most common biking BS. I get a torrent of it every spring from colleagues, and the wife's friends pussy-whipped husbands.

    If I ever win the lottery I'll buy them all a bike each for xmas, and give the receipt to their wives :D

    I got a 600 for a first bike as I thought I would kill myself on anything bigger, then almost killed myself on the said 600. That's no BS and it shuts people up when they do the "oohhh a litre bike would be too much and I would kill myself on it" bit ;)

    Once upon a time a long long time ago .............
    In the days of the 125 LC , everybody said there's did a tonne easily. Even bought one from a shop in bratferd and the guy selling it said " the lad who owned it said it did well over a tonne "

    In reality they did 80 mph , and everybody was lying barstewards , lmfao

    I love this one :D

    "Noisy bloody things, ruining the countryside, thinking they own the road"

    "You wouldn't catch me on one of those things. Bloody lethal. I'll keep the use of my legs and stick with the car"

    "Pah.........donorcycles. There's a reason they're called that you know"


    If you still all of these phrases into the Non-Biker to Biker option on Google translate it comes back with,


    "My missus / parents have said no and I do as I'm told"

    "I'm frightened and I doubt that I have the skill to ride one but don't want a testing centre to confirm this"

    "I don't have the spare money because we just bought a large people carrier"

    We knew a guy called Steve Swift ex motocross rider who claimed he can wheelie his Rd80lc for over a mile.He proved it by doing well over a mile.Then the muppets started a wheelie group trying to emulate him on their mopeds.It soon died a death cos the majority of them got smashed up.
