Could this be the 1st hello from Vietnam?

#1 Unread post by bloody_angel »

Hello everyone!
I'm a 17 year old student from Vietnam. And I love sportbikes and cars. But I'm not allowed to ride yet. They say I'll have to wait till my 18th birthday. Sad, isn't it? :rant: Anyway, sometimes I'll break the rules and take my friend's bike (he's older than me) to go for a ride around the city :devil2: . That means I do know how to ride a bike, just havent been able to do tricks yet. Plus, it's definitely hard to find a sportbike here in Vietnam :wallbash: . However, I'm still hoping to own one in the future :thumbsup: .
Umm, that's a little about me. I'm new to riding and to this site. So I hope to receive counsels from all of you :smartass: .
(Sorry, my English is bad... lol)
By the way, my friend's bike looks like this (one of those that you usually see on Vietnam's streets):

Yep, squid is slang. It can have several meanings for the acronym, but is a derogatory term for motorcycle riders.

Squid: SQUirrelly kID or Stupidly Quick Underdressed Immenently Dead or Super Quick Until I Die or Stupidly Quick, Underdressed, Ignorant, and Dangerous.

Those are the ones that I know of. There may be more acronyms for it.
A dog had his chain reduced one link at a time, every few days, until his chain was so short he could barely move. He never resisted because he was conditioned to the loss of his freedom slowly, over time. Are we in this country becoming like the dog?
