And ALL the ladies be up ons.
Honestly though, either way, my family gets considerable amounts of money.
And i don't know about the rest of you guys, but I would miss riding and lifting if it came to that.. but guess what, I'd get over it.
And i hear good things about hospital food around here

Depends on what you listen to i suppose. I find that classical isn't distracting in the least. Quite the opposite, actually. But perhaps that's just me.

Anyone worried about getting collected from behind at a red light probably hasn't put a lot of thought into the nature of the hobby. Worrying about that when riding a 1000cc sportsbike the way it was intended is a bit retarded.

I have been thinking about doing it with the Ipod touch and maybe just one headphone in,I have been looking for the best flush fit phones that would be comfortable in the tight helmet seen the new Skull phones that seem to be a little more low profile,how does the Sony phones work?anyone know if its illegal on a bike?I try to avoid the cops as much as possible they are very expensive.
