    How do use your bike.

    Until 1992 I used bikes pretty much daily.

    These days only ride a few times a month in the summer.

    Miss day in day out biking, but a combination of work and home ties means I have no option.

    How do you lot get on?

    If its dry then I go to work on my bike say from April onwards,but in winter I put it to bed and use the car.I try and get out on the bike as often as I can,I`m lucky coz I`ve got an understanding wife,she dos`nt like bikes though.I once went the corner shop for some margerine on my bike,the shop`s only 400yds away,is that being lazy or just addiction.

    Take it easy out there

    Ditto. Only fair weather biker now. Have Toyota Camry and MR2 and Pilote R380 motorhome.

    Went the Vic pub in Coalville last night. Around 400 bikes there. Strangest one, but good on him, was a 3′ midget on a specially made trike. Sound.

    If its dry and warm enough we ride the bike, if its cold and wet or too knacked, then its the Vectra TD.

    No car, everywhere on bike, all weathers.[:)]

    LOVE IS GIVING SOMEONE THE ABILITY TO DESTROY YOU, THEN TRUSTING THEM NOT TO.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, But rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, Vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming…….WOO HOO, what a ride!

    Did have Porsche, Lotus 7 rep, Cobra, V8 Rover, MX5, BMW etc but now relegated to (yawn) VW Transporter Van & Seat Alhambra people carrier! I love my kids but I was definitely on my way to owning a Ferrari before they came along! They had better look after me in my old age.

    Crap parking but nice Suzuki, Kat. Is that an imported Cappuccino?

    The Cappuccino was an official import and has quite a cult following. Aftermarket body-kit by the look of it.
    Looks fun…

    I also use the Mondeo at times but only if it’s really icy or absolutly chucking it down when I leave for work, nothing worse than wet boots etc for the start of the day! don’t care if it rains on the way home I’ll get changed when I get in…ice and snow are my biggest worries as I ride all year through (which explains why I’m always having to free siezed caliper pistons!)
