Good one. As cell phones are becoming more of a problem for bikers than Q-tips on the road!Frostywheels wrote:Head-Banger: An oblivious "cage" driver (car/truck driver) with a cell-phone plastered to their ear.

I'd like to also suggest:
Celltarded: A car driver doing something dumb because they are talking or texting on the cell phone.
Example: "If they weren't on their cell phone everyone would have made the light. That was completely celltarded"

Re: Total Motorcycle Bikers Dictionary 6th Ed - Suggest a Wo
Since I've used the term a half dozen times now, I thought I should suggest it to be added...
BIKECURIOUS-(adj)
The condition or state of mind wherein one is interested in learning to ride a motorcycle, for whatever reason, but is not yet sufficiently motivated or convinced to begin the process. Often this person is a brother-in-law.
Sorry I'm late, my bikecurious neighbor stopped me while I was suiting up and asked a bunch of questions about my gear and my bike. He should just take the plunge.
