i hate being a biker, walking home from work and seeing a bike staring at it but that rider not knowing that im a biker. same goes for when im in the car.

for example this morning i was walking home from work, cross at some pedestrian lights and a ninga 636 pulls up at the front of the cue, nice shiny green one with underseat exhaust. anyway he was less than 6 ft away but i want hime to know

anyone else feel this??

Wear you EB shirt all the time :laugh2


We have bike stickers but no car stickers? I pm'd the guy who makes them but never got a reply. A sticker should be made so we can out it on the inside of our cars

Paul, Chubbs is still about but he has no PC at the moment, so he cant pick up his PM's. PM me if you want some stickers and I will pass the message on.......

I do wear my EB T-shirt all the time. There's a few Duke riders go in the Angel at Broomfield on a Monday evening when I drop the young 'un at Ninja class that've given a quick nod in the bar.
And a few comely young wenches in Chelmsford town centre that see the biker part of the T and come over all queer.

If it weren't for that pesky Mrs......

Give them the nod exactly as you would on the bike, they will recognise the nod.

Yeah, I've had that effect on Women........usually they start being violently sick, stuff like that, but as soon as I leave the room they seem to recover http://www.essexbikers.co.uk/forum/images/icons/icon10.gif

WHy not? be like superman. wear it underneath your work shirt, then when a biker comes in, run into the back where no-one is looking, rip it off. go say hello to the bike, then run back into the back and get back into work clothes :grin3

Lol, i know what u guys mean, i nod or smile to bikers, they normally look at me coz im staring at their bike, and some nod back, some dont, probably none of them realise im a biker too. lol, ive worn my essexbiker t-shirt to work, i was out in romford in it and my manager asked me to work, so i stood in the restuarant with the drivers in my eb t-shirt! lol

I nod at pedestrians wearing bike t-shirts/hats if I see em.

I want a bike "I'm a biker!" sticker on the back of my car.
But then I suppose I don't have a car anymore, so all is good.

My cages are blue - the big one and white - the pocket racer.

If you are having an R6 one then I'm insisting on VTR/SP1. LOL

I've just printed and then got the kids to laminate one of the examples. It looks good in the back window of the blue cage.
