Smaller bikes can sound annoying, and those damn mopeds! They're bad. But Harleys are the bad boys.
Quote:Bicycles are better than motorbikes (or hairdryers with wheels, which is what you're limited to by your CBT) for shorter distances. I know I keep going on about it, but a decent bicycle will be a lot better for you at the moment from both a costs point of view, and a fitness perspective.
By the time you get all the bike gear and tax and insure the bike, you could easily have bought a rustbucket of a car and be put on your parents' insurance
For shorter distances, short being upto about 3 miles. Car insurance is stupidly expensive, if you can find me insurance for £1,000 - £2,000 then you're a magician, on a bike I'm probably looking at around £500.

Sharn's sig is rather worrying, although that fairy has a damn cute face.

It wasn't 15 miles away, It was in Bolton which is another town..
I own a bicycle, I used to ride a bicycle when I was younger, I'm a big boy now and can advance on to things with engines. I have no interest or intention of riding a pedal bike, they're toys to me, that such as peasant carriers.
