Which is, That nothing gives you more pleasure than beating people with expensive bikes?

Jip, I have to agree with Reinhardt89. I enjoy it too.

 

It is a similar satisfaction as riding next to a brand new Toyota Fortuner/Hilux in both our cars that are 10 years and 6 years old, bu they are not owned by the bank. No installments going off on payday is a special kind of fun.

 

We are not going past them lauging out loud and pointing at them, it is an inner satisfaction, they don't even know.

Each of my bikes is more expansive than my car...

 

Mine was for ages as well. 

 

Then I got T boned by a chop and realised if my youngster was in the car it would not have been ideal. Now drive a low flying fortress with airbags.

Bentley GT? 3 tons of fury with a bike rack on the back? :whistling:

Maybe their Fortuners are not owned by the bank either? Maybe they have paid theirs cars off just like you?

 

Dont judge other people by what they have, just like those who have, should not judge others for what they dont have!

 

If you are a dick on a R6k or R120k bike you are still a dick, if you are a nice dude on a R6k or R120k bike you are still nice dude. Some nice dudes might not be able to get R120k bikes, but that doesnt mean you must turn into a dick on a R6k bike.

 

What you ride doesnt matter, just be a lekker oke about it.

The reason I don't enter the races the pros ride is because the pros ride.

 

I find it more entertaining travelling from point to point watching the pros race, than sweating it out myself for a couple of hours.

Ag, Patch, the guy is living vicariously and if his little victories make him happy, all is cool. I once could afford the expensive stuff, and now I am 'poor' with a little car and a reasonably expensive bike. If you're gonna be grumpy, let's pick on those f***ing 15 year olds wannabe PRO's who say 'Kan ek verby kom, OOM?'. Ageist little sh*ts.

I'm so competitive I even race my shadow ,but he's on a more expensive bike than me (must be his wheels are bigger) I do beat him sometimes,but he is a bit of a shady character ...like most race-ist's ????

Maybe... but the reality is that the majority of expensive vehicles on the road are financed. South Africans are very emotionally connected to their cars and see it as a status item, thus the reason for over extension on debt. 

 

If I am called a d%$s on a 10 year old R3k bike because I have internal satisfaction that my training effort has made up the difference  between my skedonk and a guy on a R120k bike, then so be it.

 

I personally see other actions that warrant the d$5s title:

-People on the highway(or any other road) on their phones(Calling and texting)

-Drunk Drivers

-etc

 

If you want to group me with them, no problem, doesn't affect my self worth.
