    Please read this an repost on your face book accounts.

    For all who Know Motorcycle Riders ...... I saw you hug your purse closer to you in the grocery store line. But you didn't see me put an extra £10.00 in the collection plate last Sunday. I saw you pull your child closer when we passed each other on the sidewalk. But you didn't see me playing Santa at the local mall. I saw you change your mind about going into the restaurant. But you didn't see me, attending a meeting to raise more money for the hurricane relief. I saw you roll up your window and shake your head when I drove by. But you didn't see me, driving behind you when you flicked your cigarette butt out the car window. I saw you frown at me when I smiled at your children. But you didn't see me when I took time off from work to run toys to the homeless. I saw you stare at my long hair. But you didn't see me and my friends cut ten inches off for Locks of Love. I saw you roll your eyes at our leather coats and gloves. But you didn't see me and my brothers donate our old coats and gloves to those that had none. I saw you look in fright at my tattoos. But you didn't see me cry as my children where born and have their name written over and over in my heart. I saw you change lanes while rushing off to go somewhere. But you didn't see me going home to be with my family. I saw you complain about how loud and noisy our bikes can be. But you didn't see me when you were changing the CD and drifted into my lane. I saw you yelling at your kids in the car. But you didn't see me pat my child's hands, knowing he was safe behind me. I saw you reading the map as you drove down the road. But you didn't see me squeeze my wife's leg when she told me to take the next turn. I saw you race down the road in the rain. But you didn't see me get soaked to the skin so my son could have the car to go on his date. I saw you run the yellow light just to save a few minutes of time. But, you didn't see me trying to turn right. I saw you cut me off because you needed to be in the lane I was in. But you didn't see me leave the road. I saw you waiting impatiently for my friends to pass. But you didn't see me. I wasn't there. I saw you go home to your family. But you didn't see me. Because I died that day you cut me off. I was just a biker. A person with friends and a family. But, you didn't see me. Repost this around in hopes that people will understand the biker community. If you don't repost this, It sucks to be you. I hope you NEVER loose someone that rides.... this is so true and happens a lot more then people know!!!

    Been around for ages, that has. Nothing like a bit of over-dramatisation from the colonials is there.... :

    Riding we all know is dangerous but we do it because we love it.

    I know bikers that have came off (we probably all know), some have been hit off by other drivers and others were trying to get the best out of their beast but its unfortunately the way biking is.

    i have been riding for a short period of time but Ive had the pulling out and up my arse when I do the speed limit. I have done a few things wrong and though **** I shouldnt have done that (learn from mistakes).

    Drivers are the same as us, we arnt special because we ride. I know one person who did a right turn and hit a biker off (the biker was in the blind spot and didnt see him indicating before the he over took). But in court the bikers family though it was his (the dirvers fault), it was a pure accident. Luckily the biker was ok it had to go to court because of the liability issue...

    To say if you dont repost and it sucks to be you is a bit OTT and the Tosser part ;D

    on another note RTAs were changed to RTCs because things apparently arnt accidents lol! ;D - am sure when I set my mams kitchen on fire that was an accident! ;D ;D
