Riding thro Wigan last week when a young pikey - cap on back to front, in his Psuedo custom (read - blathered wreck!) Ford Escort looked straight at me. He then decided to pull out of a minor road right in front of me. :shock: I Slammed on the anchors and excecuted the perfect front wheel stoppie. I said to him, "It's bright feckin' yellow and the headlights are on - please don't tell me you didn't see me" :roll:

The thing is I was gonna say that yellow is the safest colour- apparently not anymore it's not! :evil:

He looked and saw a YELLOW bike,thought to himself"cant be that tough if he bought a yellow bike.i'll pull out on him cause he wont do nowt"
Now if you were riding one of satans black steeds it would never happen.Young lad sees black,nothing else except blackness.He's confused bewildered even.Only bad ass muthers ride black bikes right,must belong to some nocturnal biker clan who drink blood and vomit for a laugh.I aint gonna mess with him,he must be one bad mutha!He dont pull out,you continue on your way unhindered.Job done!Stealth mode,the strong silent type.Call it what you will.Come join the dark side,together we can rule the universe.Free can of matt black to first convertie.

... then he spots the BMW badge... the pipe, poking out from the bad ass mother's crash helmet and the tartan bobble slippers. He thinks: 'I bet that costs a fortune for a service at a franchised dealer, but at least he'll be able to drink complementary coffee while waiting for the bill'...

Perhaps...

You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.
