Yay for old threads.

Since there's no "for attracting members of the opposite sex" choice, I ticked hobby.

What? You never heard of motorcycle couriers or pizza delivery? I earn a nice bit of coin from 87 to 93 running envelops, small packages and big arsed rolls of blue prints around Vancouver. Of course that meant riding in all manner of weather, including snow.

In the UK, pizza is delivered via motorcycle and if you go to Manila, you can order McDonalds delivery, again via motorbike.

Motorbikes, they are not just for giving parents heart attacks anymore. :mrgreen:
Always ask why.

Is it an unruly child?
People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.

Always wear a helmet, eye protection, and protective clothing. Never ride under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

+1 on the "Therapy" vote!!

The bike makes the commute to work something to look forward to & adds to the "can't wait until work is over..." itch...plus it gets you out of the office during lunch...of course at this time of year all I can do is wish the snow & ice would just go away!! GLOBAL WARMING my A-S-S!!

Later.
