How Come...
how come every time you tell someone (that doesnt ride) that you ride a motorcycle they have to tell you some stupid story about some guy they knew who split his skull open or how some kid was speedin down a side street and someone opened a car door on him and ripped his leg off...
why cant they just say "cool" and leave it alone???

I don't care how nice someone was that approached me on the street after seeing me with the bike, if they started asking me if I ever crashed or started to speak of those situations I'd simply ignore them...they'll never understand.

Exactly!
Like we love to hear stories like this. We go out and ride to have a positive experience not a negative experience. |

Because people are compelled to feel they did their useful part to society, because they don't ride, they don't understand. Que sera... that or we all a bunch of brainless idiots who have a deathwish. Take your pick.

Maybe they weren't wearing their seatbelt???
Hey, it's their right to speak their mind. No?
Street goes both ways. You might want to remember that. |

Tell them "yep, I heard that, did you see the 12 car pileup last week where all those CHILDREN died with their seatbelts on?" They won't talk bike crashes to you anymore.

no the best has to be when the conversation goes like this
X: "hey thats a nice bike, i use to ride also, but then i stopped."
Me: "thanks, why did you stop riding?"
X: "well you know......."
Me: "no i dont know......im still riding"
DURRR!!!!!

Theres a tool at work who is like that... talks out his ass on everything.
"Man all my boys are 6 feet under from ridin that shit... they were racers too. And they did them wheelies and shit. Hit a pole, got cut in half, this other one..."
Completely full of shit. Then he goes "yeah gear doesn't matter, they all wore their stuff, got killed anyway! He hit a streetlight, split his head in half, right through the helmet!"
Jackass. Clueless. Fucking. Jackass.

People are just screwed up in general. No reasoning behind some actions.... |
