With the balmy +2 degree weather out a lot of the snow has melted off the roads and made most of the city a wet mess. Puddles lie on every road and back roads like the one by my house are like driving through a crater. Whether thats to signal the end of the miserable cold we all had to deal with in January remains to be seen but the signs spring is almost here are abundant, grass is showing, girls wearing halter tops, people wearing shorts, the bums migrating north to hang out by my condo, and of course the aforementioned motorcyclists roaming the streets…
I don’t hate the street bikes or harleys, I just hate the idiots who drive them. Come summer time in my neck of the woods I’m privileged to hear the steady stream of bikes revving there engines outside my window waiting for the light on 97th street to turn green, then just when you think there gone some other jackass on a bike comes wheeling up to the lights. Maybe thats me getting old but it really takes away from the sounds that put me to sleep, like drunken bum couples fighting with each other in the middle of 97th missing oncoming traffic by a couple feet, or how about the homeless rummaging through the dumpster in hopes of finding that last 5 cents so they can go buy themselves a 6 pack of Lucky Lager, and most of all its hard to hear the multiple idiots who swing on the giant baseball bat screaming with joy only to be screaming in pain moments later after face planting into the cement falling off the bats handle.
But hey, it’s summer time this shit is supposed to be expected.
Which is why I have no sympathy for people pulling off these antics in winter. Especially you Mr. cyclist. People like me may call you dumb for bringing your bike out in February but you ride a harley and are unstoppable! You ride around all day revving your engine trying to impress broads when in reality you’re just setting yourself up to look stupid, did I mention that it was still February?
Apparently you dont like wearing a helmet because it seems you have taken a few to many spills and knocks to the head, how else would that explain cruising around on your bike at night? Surely you must know that while in February it can be above zero during the days it still freezes at night. With all the melting snow on the streets throughout the day you would think that would make things a little troublesome for a Harley come night time don’t you?
Which is why I have no sympathy (and sometimes laugh) for people like you who crash there bikes in the midst of Winter, you deserve to break a limb because:
a:) You’re an idiot
b:) You’re an idiot
c:) You’re an idiot
d:) All of the Above
Still, at least you’re not a cyclist in -40 degree weather biking around the city or hogging the roads. Those people have a whole other bag of issues to deal with…
