    I was on my way home from work today, and pulled up next to a Volvo
    people-mover 4WD type thingy...... and I could hear this tap tap
    tapping noise, so I looked around..... and these two little kids were
    waving madly at me. They were so excited when I waved back..... it was
    really cute...

    And then there was the little boy at the Mall last weekend, who almost
    knocked his Dad down when I walked past...

    "Daddy, look!!!!! A GIRL motorbike rider!!!!!"

    Are we still so rare???? (ok, i loved it, it was really cute - I don't
    often get called a "girl" - clearly the bike gear means you don't have
    to wear the "lady" title)..... I guess it made up for some of those
    times that the hoonboys in utes have dragged me off at lights cos they
    can see the L-plates and the small stature and they have to prove their
    manhood, tee hee.

    I get that quite a lot...kids have a habit of looking out the back
    window and they always gasp and start waving like mad and smiling and
    laughing when they see me behind them...

    Nice one Betty - feels good to make some kid's day (or minute in my case)
    eh?

    A few of my riding mates are big girls (you know who you are....). Damned
    ugly ones too.

    As for the ones who were born as girls - not ugly at all and can ride.
    However there's one less these days sadly - hope you're reading this KTR...
    :-(

    It's not always easy to chit-chat when you're being forcibly dealt a measure
    of tough love in front of half of Sydney.

    Same with fvckin' wine

    Wouldn't be taking that too far out of context.

    Bloody wine.

    My wife and I have matching bikes, it seems to be a shock to people that a
    woman is riding a sportsbike (yes, yes we all know zzr's aren't real
    sportsbikes, but they don't). When the wife goes riding with our 7 Y/O
    daughter as pillion she always gets the looks, waves and smiles. There
    aren't as many looks when I ride with our 10 Y/O son on the back with me.

    As for the hoonboys in utes, my wife makes short work of them and most are
    never seen again (except as small dots in the mirrors). LOL

    The bike store salesmen haven't woken to the fact that there is the
    posibility of sales to females. Or they make the assumption that all females
    want to ride a cruiser (might just be our little town).

    As the ute boys go past hold out your hand and extend your index finger and
    thumb.

    Now hold them closer....




    Closer....





    Closer....





    Closer....






    Perfect!

    I always wave to kids who wave at me. I'm always hoping the
    conversation in the car that follows might go something like this

    Li'l kid "Mummy, when I grow up, I want to be a bikie rider too"

    More likely though, it goes something like this

    Li'l kid "Mummy, why is the man sitting out there in the raiin?"
    Mummy "That's because he's like your special friend Timmy, the one who
    licks the windows on the school bus"
    Li'l kid "Ewwwww"

    Cat once had a funny encounter with a ute with a coupla young lads driving. She was on the Blade on a hot day so had put her jacket
    into the Ventura bag, and I was following on my bike. She was wearing a tight top that left little to the imagination. The ute-boys
    raced up to her, took a double take at the bouncing and their jaws dropped. For some reason they didn't feel inclined to try and
    race her. :) And the only thing they could say at the next set of lights was "nice bike".

    Hehehe

    Heh heh; I was out riding on Sunday and there were two little kids waving
    furiously out their window at me so I obligingly waved back and the
    very-coolly zoomed past them into the distance.
    A few ks up the road gNatalie wanted a toilet stop so I pulled in and,
    leaving the engine running and my helmet on, waited for her return.
    Then the car stopped and the two little kids ran up to and stood 3 feet
    away waving furiously at me!
    It's very hard to look cool when you don't have an exit!

    I remember one time riding the Hogly when I was overtaking a line of stopped
    cars when some kid stuck his whole upper body out the window to scream at me
    as I approached; "Hey you! Get back on the right side of the... <Loud
    Schwoooop! noise as the kid was pulled back into the car like he was on a
    bungie cord...>

    I see the punsters have already had a field day with this - surprised
    it took them so long to milk it for all it was worth....

    A hudder is in fact, a wine-induced slip of the finger..... comes from
    an ancient Babylonian word that translates roughly to "shiraz-handed"

    damn, my cover's blown... (funny, coz when I am at work I'm so sure
    that I'm so bad at what I do that nobody would ever pick me for a
    public servant!)

    Last weekend I did a book launch for a friend, and it was such a relief
    and such a welcome change to be doing something I know I'm good at!
