[align=left:4ddd7e7582]Be safe out there!

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 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 newspaper or 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.

Where'd you find that, out of curiosity?

Awsome post!

I guess my thing is, I won't go into a ditch to avoid a car because that way they can just drive off with no damage and if you die, hey, they had nothing to do with it, right? If there's paint traded, at least there's physical evidence of the contact. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm no Kamakazi, but I'm not going to run off a cliff or into a stone rail to avoid them either. I'll take my chances on the hood, and hopefully the bike will phuck their car up where they have to stop afterwards.

My dad's biker (Harley) friend emailed it to me. He may have found it online.

Great poem...

but now I'm going to have to dig the Tesla album out of the junk box and rock out for a while!







:headbang:


And the sign says "Long-haired freaky people need not apply"
So I put my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why
He said you look like a fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do
So I took off my hat, I said "Imagine that, huh, me working for you"

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Fuckin' up the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

And the sign says "Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight"
So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house Hey! What gives you the right!
To put up a fence and keep me out, or to keep Mother Nature in
If God was here, he'd tell it to your face, man, you're some kind of sinner

[Chorus]

Oh, say now mister, can't you read
You got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat
You can't watch, no you can't eat, you ain't supposed to be here
And the sign says "You got to have a membership card to get inside" - uh!

[Solo]

And the sign says "Everybody welcome, come in, kneel down and pray"
But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all
And I didn't have a penny to pay
So I got me a pen and a paper and I made up my own fuckin' sign
I said, "Thank you Lord for thinking 'bout me, I'm alive and doing fine", oh

I've had one bounce off my left mirror! Makes me want to get beside them and kick the crap out of their car.

[Suki]

tellin you, everyone should ride a motorcycle - dont care what kind - at least for a week for just once to fully understand what little things can cause and to be more aware of their freakin blind spots.

that fog horn is looking mighty appealing, sorry Frito Lover but i'm gonna have to get that so i can blast that shit in their ears!!!

[mclarke]

it would be nice to ride up next to them and there open window, pull out the air horn and sound it right in their ears...

that's what i'm sayin man!!! now just to figure out a way to strap that thing to my bike so i can readily grab it and squuuuuuuueeeeeeeeze!!!!

CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW BITCH?????? :lol:

[Beotch]

:lol: I am really wondering about people (again)...I was almost hit twice last week (like really close) by people who just like came over into my lane while I was on the bike. I was on the TL and accelerating both times, so it's not like I was quiet. I communicated nicely with both in sign language.... :D

I think lunch time is the worst for me. Today some dude in a F150 was adding something to his burger and just merged right into my lane. I noticed it and hopped on the throttle, when I checked my mirror his face was still turned down looking at his food :(

[Monkey]

I had some fuck in an F-250 decide to brake check me at 230am on friday.. from 80mph to 30mph.. then proceeded to come into the other lane when i went to go around him...

I need to figure out where to put an ASP on my bike.. they tend to get the idea when they lose parts of their car.
