the lady couldn't stand on chance on the podium but at least she came in 9th and won 50 ringgit. can you spot her?

gender is not that big an issue la.

w/o raincoat..zooooommm... power..

wanted to catch up..but cant..kos im riding X1...

 

sexy de....

[fireshamie]

i feel no big deal la-h, so please dun think u gonna be tua kee coz u are a female riding bike haha

 

what is tua kee?

 

but what ever it is, the sentence sounds good!

 

scully the girl ride bike but is still a complain queen

ride bike != non-complain queen

girls like to complain la

 

girls are girls la..just like boys will always be boys..

 

just that thou we lady riders still complain abt certain stuff like caught in the rain, we still go thru it every now and then, just like any rider out there, AND still choose to ride

 

The problem with some of the lady riders that I've actually met on the road (especially in Tuas, there are lotsa girls here riding, a bike) is that :-

 

They always feel that they've got something to prove against guy riders.

 

1. They ride recklessly

2. Attempt to outrun me when the engine capacity difference is multiply 3 minimum.

 

 

Girls, Please ride safely.

 

We really, DON'T CARE that you're a girl rider.

 

i just feel like getting out of where ever i was riding cuz i hate the stares, good or not..thus the outrunning and riding recklessly to get away

 

wat makes u think that riding fino means they cant handle big stuff?

 

 

 

Agreed.. doesnt matter u female or not.. so long u ride a bike, we are just fellow riders..

 

As with everyone else, we are all just a road user..

 

i agree on both!! esp the last sentence..we ARE just another road user..no big deal abt it

 

some more...

[DeusExMachina]

impossible not to like!!

 

 

 

She really really needs how to learn to kickstart the damned thing properly.

 

U don't MOUNT a sportbike and then kick start it from that kinda standing position.

 

LOooooL......

Cool.

 

I hope she likes her slight road rash.

 

 

Next time gear the hell up if you intend to go gonzo on the roads!

 

 

But at least she's a sexy squid.... so that's gotta count for some points.

[DeusExMachina]

Agreed.. doesnt matter u female or not.. so long u ride a bike, we are just fellow riders..

 

As with everyone else, we are all just a road user..

 

Damned straight, gal. We're all just riders, and a gal on a bike is just another road user.

 

I treat lady riders like any other. Don't pay them special notice.

 

 

Unless of course they upskirt themselves (silly, why wear a skirt?)... or nuclear wedgie themselves with their thongs sticking out gao gao at the stoplights.

 

That.... is worth... a second look.

Unless again of course her face is ugly enough to stop a clock.

Some statistics from the local paper.

 

http://www.straitstimes.com/BreakingNews/Singapore/Story/STIStory_470323.html

 

MORE women are taking to the roads on their bikes, changing up the previously male dominated domain of motorcycle riding.

 

Bukit Batok Driving Centre has seen an increase in its number of female students taking their motorcycle licence - up from 17 per cent 5 years ago to 20 per cent this year.

 

Motorcyclists themselves have noticed more girls with their spunky bikes on the roads but it's not just the smaller bikes they're riding.

 

Some of these biker beauties ride powerful bikes that would put even the most faithful Lorenzo Lamas wannabes to shame.

 

When asked if she gets discriminated on the roads being a female bike rider, Adeline Chong, 22, who rides a 400cc sports bike said: 'You get a lot of people staring and sometimes a lorry would stop beside you and go 'eh eh' but it does have its plus points. If my bike breaks down, I'm more likely to get help.'

LOL... which makes me wonder sometimes.

 

Do some of these gals take up riding 'cos they think it's cool being a lady rider... or want some added attention?

 

Or are they really passionate abt riding/bikes, and want to know more abt the bikes themselves?

 

Some of them don't even know a sprocket from a brake disc.

We only ride so we dont have to rely on untimely busses, standing in line queuing for busses or wait for men to fetch us.

well said! bike is faster to get from Point A to Point B also..

[DeusExMachina]

Exactly.

 

Not to get attention or to think that you're something special.

 

A bike is just a mode of transport.... or a piece of sporting equipment that you throw around a tarmac/dirt track.

[GuiNNeSS]

i agree too. bike is a great transport alternative for me who dun earn much and dun own car yet able to enjoy freedom of having own transport though just small bike

 

and also not born pretty so dun have men waiting to fetch me around haha.

 

i salute to those pretty riders can have whole Q of men waiting to fetc them but choose to hav their own ride. yeah to independence and of coz pl ride safely and no skimpy wear please... more uncle than handsome guys on the roads so please wear safely keke

[danielsin2]

.... yeah to independence and of coz pl ride safely and no skimpy wear please... more uncle than handsome guys on the roads so please wear safely keke

 

Guess you dont see guys like me that often otr then.

[Raptor]

So which is more important? Applicable to both guys and gals.

 

Looks or money?

[areal]

looks la! ill spend more money on my bike to make it look pretty and purr contentedly hee hee

We only ride so we dont have to rely on untimely busses, standing in line queuing for busses or wait for men to fetch us.

yeah..sometimes the bus too crammed to even get on.

then on the suffocatingly stuffy mrt kana squished along with hordes of sticky and 'fragrant' ppl

got bike can go anywhere, anytime! super convenient, cant imagine going back to public transport

except when raining then become wet soup chicken la
