When you move to a new area and people see you're a biker and for some reason think you know everything about bikes,"oh my lads got an old bike which hasn't run for years maybe you'd have a look at it"etc.It makes you feel like saying "drive a car do you? in that case mines running a bit rough,I'll bring it round for you to look at",pisses me off

If the cheque clears after the 2/3 days he estimates before the bike is collected, you have he's money and he can't get the cash back can he? maybe he's going to come and try and nick the bike or come down early with a couple of mates and try and intimidate you into handing the bike over,either way it stinks because why not just give his "associate" the cash ,then again same thing applies when you've given him your address,there's some dodgy characters out there ay? 1894

Out for a few hours and when I came home realised I FORGOT TO PUT THE BIKE AWAY !!!!!!Very fortunately it was still there, that made me feel happy Years and years ago I wanted to go to the race of the year at Mallory Park,couldn't blag a lift off any of the" proper" bikers at the time (I was only 16) so I nicked my brother's push bike early in the morning and set off,this bike was a nail he used to go to work on,only one gear but I didn't give a fuck,it was getting me to Mallory! after about 15 miles I was almost in tears,I couldn't believe how hard it was and Mallory was another 25 miles away.I finally made it hours later,threw the bike against a tree and prayed it would get stolen,the racing was well under way so I climbed over the fence and snuck in.(it was a lot easier back then) anyway watched the race of the year and in my fantasy world I was John Cooper as we all made our way out,you can tell how crap that bike was it was still fucking there! I could have told my brother it had been nicked but I was already in for a bollicking for taking it so I figured at least if I got it home I might avoid a kicking.As it happened by the time I got home everybody was so glad to see me 'cause they didn't know where I'd gone that nowt happened but this reminded me of how much I wanted something nicked. |
