[GuiNNeSS]

Looks or money?

 

money, applicable to both guys and gals.

 

Looks.....can always go for plastic surgery when you have the money.

cya guys(ladies) AROUND THEN....

[red rocket]

The tarmac does care if you're man or woman when it races up to greet you.

 

So please gear up to take a fall. That means covered shoes, not flip flops at least.

 

Take care on the roads. Doesn't matter who has the "right of way", the biker's the one who'd suffer more.

[jtzx]

100% correct!

[swiftee]

lady riders pls remember that if you ride you will end up with some kind of scar, and there is a chance that it may be a big ugly one. so better honestly ask yourself whether your looks are important to you first.

 

some girls i know want to ride bikes for the cool factor but dont really realise what they are getting into

 

i know scars can be avoided if you gear up fully all the time but how many people actually do that... it just takes one moment of carelessness or forgetfulness

 

i was involved in a crash recently. that day, i was wearing full-face helmet, riding boots and mesh riding jacket (with armor) but did not wear my gloves. ended up getting major road rash on my hands (fortunately not the fingers or the palms)

however my knees were also injured as i was only wearing heavy jeans.

the injuries will probably result in rather bad scarring, fortunately they are mostly on my hands and knees.

even then, i thank my lucky stars that i had decided to wear my mesh jacket and riding boots on that day, otherwise my injuries would be more extensive.

Good points raised... please take note that it is easier to learn from the mistakes of others than from one's own experience. Experience is a very good teacher but most unforgiving.

 

Don't be like this other guy I know... always like to wear open face helmets until he skidded and lost all his front teeth when his faced impacted the outside kerb of a slip road.

 

Now he wears a full face helmet.

 

Lesson learnt too late... but still a painful lesson learnt.

Spotted: This morning roughly around 10-11am along Jalan Bukit Merah towards the Chinatown direction.

 

2 Ladies wearing colourful tudang, one on a red scooter with a p plate. Another on a Kup Kia bearing numbers 1, 5 & 2.

 

Steady Bom Pee Pee!

@swiftee: couldn't agree with you more on getting properly geared up when riding!

[GuiNNeSS]

Hmmm.....I was reminded that I told a driver about how both my accidents on bikes....my riding jackets were all in the boxes.

I agree with this!

 

Lady riders have to be fully geared when riding on the roads. You wouldn't want to end up with scars when you crash or fall or skid...

[jtzx]

not just ladies.. Guys also. Don't learn the hard way.

Spotted: Walking towards Kim Tien Road late last night.

 

Roughly 10+ pm.

 

In the carpark, near to SGH, opposite the row of shophouses at Jalan Bukit Merah. One female in white nurse pants suit was trying to start her white and red vespa.

 

Another female, astride her pulsar was chatting with the white nurse suit female rider.
