I was at a gas station filling the Tri-Glides tank to day, When a Toyota Puke-is pulls up behind me, And the driver comes up to me... And seeing he drives a Puke-is and he's also an old guy [At least 70] Right away i know this conversation isn't gonna turn out peaches and cream..... I should of just turned away, And point to my helmet and say i can't hear you....But being my lovable self, I made full eye contact, And said can i help you....This where it gets strange ' The old guy asks how can he get a Motorcycle License.
So i said go to DMV... Take the written test practice riding and then take the driver's test.... Then he says that the keeps on falling the written test [3 0r 4times].. At that point i looked him in the eye and told him in no uncertain terms , ''You'' should not be riding a motorcycle... Your gonna kill your self or some one else..And evidently its a good you can't pass the test.. Stick with your Puke-is that might keep you out of trouble..
 
See, no respect for us seniors with wishing moments !
at least you could of took him for a put around the lot.
Just aint right:gah:
 
THAT'S IT ??? WHAT KIND OF STORY IS THAT ?:mad:

A scary story at that, Thinking that there are people like that' That shouldn't have a drivers license, Let alone thinking the could ride a bike.. I mean he wasn't drunk or on drugs, Maybe off his Meds today? He did have a handicap placard hinging from his mirror.:Shrug:
Like some of the people with Handicap Placards, That drive around at night with sun-visors down and the placards hanging from their mirror further blocking their view [Illegal to drive while the placard is hanging from the mirror] , And when they do park some of them are so confused they park in the stripe part and take up two spots... Depriving me of a spot for my Trike... :gah:Maybe they should bring back Soylent Green.....:laugh:
 
It doesn't matter you can't park in the crossed out places with your Trike. You can't legally anyway. Nobody is supposed to be able to park in the stripped zones. They are there for the Handicapped to get in and out of their vehicles.
I have taken my mother-in-law to a restaurant and had a preacher park next to my car. I couldn't get her back in the car because he was illegally parked. I went in and had him move his car!
It pisses me off whenever a motorcycle parks next to my vehicle in the crossed out places just so they can get closer to the store.
This is a pet peve of mine.

I park my trike in the handicapped spot...Unless theres an open spot next/close to it... Not in the striped zone, But I've seen many a confused person with handicapped plates/ placards park there...
 
Good, didn't mean anything bad against you. I have handicap plates on the trike. I know what your talking about. Pisses me off when people do that also. Sorry if it sounded that way.

Not to worry, I don't get insulted easy, My Wife found out' that is a losing battle...:laugh:
Altho 'when Bush came on TV to say to the World the war is not about ''OIL'' 'I came close...

So I guess your point is,, you don't like foreign cars, you don't like folks that are "old", like 70 and up, you didn't like President Bush, and you are basically a lovable guy..... Could have fooled me
