[Blogs] Today while riding...

[Raptor]

Other than in the city where the speed limit is about 60 KMH between traffic lights..

 

Outside the city areas the speed limits can range from 80 - 120 KMH and like Singaporeans they travel at 10-20 KMH faster than the speed limits. Interstate highways speed limits can be as high as 140 KMH in some states.

 

And they still drive with one hand and yakking on the phone. Somehow they don't quite believe in hands free kits.

Not yet... but some states are beginning to clamp down with fines.

hmm guess it's only a matter of time, so dangerous to be on phone and driving and many a times, i hv seen cars veering left and right cos of tat.

 

ang mos r a bunch of strange ppl...for eg, i was told tat they r e ones tat spend more on lowering links than us. when a majority of ang mos r taller than us.

Rode this little town outside Phoenix called Cave Creek. Alot of bikers come here, mostly Harleys.

 

After seeing all the bearded pot bellied bikers with tatoos all over their forearms I dare not go in....scared for my little chinaman's butt.

Sure Bro... I will do that if I see her!!

I stood there for a while and saw another close to 40 Harleys come in.. low riders, some with monkey bars....

 

and ALL are NOT wearing helmets, the women in jeans or leather pants and leather vests... just bandanas tied round their heads.. needless to say... Oakley sunglasses seems the standard issue.

 

Lucky the weather was very cool, about 60 degrees Farenheit or not can imagine the smell that come out when they take off their leather pants!!

Please... you have been brainwashed by what you see on TV. It is very rare to see a chiobu riding pillion on a Harley. They tend to fail their BMI... all underheight.

 

An American colleague of my offered the reason that they handcuff their girlfriends to the bikes when they go to the bars for drinks as a theft deterrent.

 

You steal the bike... you get the girl too.

Oh yeah.... *shivers*

 

REAL American Harley.... "babes" ... are better than any Scorpio alarm system. They deter theft by the thousands.

Happy New Year to you too... but I still got to wait another 5 1/2hrs from now before I can pop the champange (not that I drink that stale smelling stuff) but am 15 hours behind Singapore.

 

The radio stations here keep reminding people if they want to fire off their firearms at the stroke of midnight to point it at the sky. For sure tomorrow's news will report of someone being hit by a stray bullet. Like driving they say... guns and alcohol don't mix.

 

Happens every year without fail...this is a gunslinger town.

 

Ride safe Bro. Cheers!!

i see them all the time at nite, yakking into their phones while driving~ especially when they take the bedok north exit from PIE... the way they "sway" between the lanes while negotiating the corners is too exciting for me~

Went for a ride to the South Mountain park on New Year's Day.

 

That the view of the city of Phoenix, looking northwards. The brownish stuff you see above the city is..... smog. There was no wind that day so the smog tends to hang over the city.

And this is what we call a cactus plant. I think if fall on you will probably kill you if not make alot of holes in your body!!
