more chiobus in new workplace
have to support so many ppl, have to support admin, secretarial, audit n even receptionist, what the hell, my job scope only said tax, now i have to do everything

thing is.. you have to be able to lift the damned thing if you drop it
that's one of the things you have to do to get a bike license in singapore.. and for the Class 2 full license, you gotta pick up a 500cc bike.. and i'm looking at the 1300cc bikeOriginally posted by Meia Gisborn:Dick Cheney would have felt right at home hunting with that group.
What's your back got to do with being able to ride one of those bikes? You could always get a touring version that has an upright seating position with a comfy padded backrest.

Evening...

Oh, I C, I C. That makes sense, and I just remembered that there's a similar requirement for getting a motorbike license here too.Originally posted by the Bear:thing is.. you have to be able to lift the damned thing if you drop it

Truth be told, it has crossed my mind to get a motorbike license here... -
i think i'll stick to driving my little car around
friend was saying it's a good thing i got the little car with the little engine, seeing that i drive like a lunatic when i'm alone in the car... any bigger engine, i'd be zooming around at about 180km/h or 115mph or more -
Good evening, folks!
SBST...i was told you're the expert on HK dramas, so must ask you.
Who is the actor who acted in the Jade shop drama which also starred Flora Chan and Liu Song Ren? The actor played the partner of Liu who was later "kicked" out. -
HK drama should ask streamie.. Me not that so expert as herOriginally posted by Wanda:Good evening, folks!

Me too! But last week, I visited the S'pore Cheshire home, and an inmate - a young man in his 20's who is sitting in a wheelchair and I suspect, paralysed on one half of his body, told me in his lop-sided way to not ride a motorbike....coz that was how he got into his current state.Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:Oh, I C, I C.

you will see that most motorcyclists who stack their bikes are those who ride them like lunatics.. and usually on small bikes... and they ride over their ability to control the bike or more than the bike can do...
those who ride like maniacs are usually on those little plastic bikes...
as for those with the bigass bikes, you will see that they are the safest riders around.. -

yeah.. maybe i should lighten up on my leadfootOriginally posted by X-men: stick to small cars then

Yah, that's the implicit risk that almost all motorbike riders have to accept. I'd imagine that traffic conditions in S'pore make riding there an even riskier proposition.Originally posted by Wanda:Me too!

How much power can you wring out of a Vios' engine by leadfooting, anyway?Originally posted by the Bear:yeah.. maybe i should lighten up on my leadfoot
-
not much
but i do go through the West Coast Highway around 140 to 155km/h when i use that way to go homeOriginally posted by Meia Gisborn:How much power can you wring out of a Vios' engine by leadfooting, anyway? -
I imagine your small car would feel like it's flying...that was how I felt when I drove my brother's hatchback at more than 80km/hr previously.Originally posted by the Bear:not much

There are a few cars for which you can't measure their 0 - 60 mph times...because their top speeds are below that.
-
yeah.. maybe i should stop driving like that.. someone in a Tuscani didn't keep up with me once..
must... slow... down..Originally posted by Wanda:I imagine your small car would feel like it's flying...that was how I felt when I drove my brother's hatchback at more than 80km/hr previously. -
that's not a nice thing to say about the PRC cars...Originally posted by Kuali Baba:There are a few cars for which you can't measure their 0 - 60 mph times...because their top speeds are below that.

No, this one's made in India - and it fared even worse in the crash test. The manufacturer's reply was, "We advise our drivers to drive carefully." WTF?Originally posted by the Bear:that's not a nice thing to say about the PRC cars...
