Bored Rider Survey

Postby Ade B » Sat Mar 04, 2006 1:43 pm

As I sit and wait for my printer to produce the week's email attachments....

thought I'd do a quick survey of BMW rider characteristics to see if we could challenge a few preconceptions.

The survey is for the S model.

I had a Sam Browne, but it died whilst undertaking a highly sophisticated and technical scientific experiment.

It managed to cope up to 132mph, but then gave in.

Wonder which one I chose? Image

I am, however, generally quite capable of undertaking mechanical tasks. :)

We'll.. I havn't shaved for almost 2 weeks, .. and the last 'Pipe' I smoked didn't contain 'Condor Ready Rubbed', .. as for 'Slippers'.. well not yet.. but it's a nice thought. Actually.. 'Slip-on Bike Boots' would be an advantage. A sign of my age is that every morning when i bend down to put my Boots on,.. I wonder if it's worth doing anything else whilst I'm down there.
