Sit Down, Shut Up, and Hang On


Midnight bugs taste best
Saddlebags can never hold everything you want, but they CAN hold everything you will ever need
NEVER argue with a woman holding a torque wrench
Never try to race an old Geezer, he may have one more gear than you
Home is where your bike sits long enough to leave a few drops of oil on the ground
You'll get farther down the road if you learn to use more than two fingers on the front brake
Routine maintnance should never be neglected
It takes more love to share the saddle than the bed
The only good view of a thunderstorm is in the rearview mirror
Never be afraid to slow down
Only Bikers understand why dogs love to stick their heads out car windows
Bikes don't leak oil, they mark their territory
Never ask a biker for directions if you are in a hurry
Don't ride so late into the night that you sleep through the sunrise
Pie and Coffee are as important as gasoline
Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of gas before you can think straight
If you want to get a job, you may have to compromise your principals. You may even have to shave
Riding faster than everyone else guarantees you'll ride alone
Never hesitate to ride past the last street light at the edge of town
Never mistake Horsepower for staying power
A good rider has balance, judgement, and good timing. So does a good lover.
A cold hamburger can be reheated quite nicely by strapping it to an exhaust pipe and riding forty miles
Never do less than forty miles before breakfast
If you don't ride in the rain, YOU DON'T RIDE
A bike on the road is worth two in the shop
Respect the person who has seen the dark side of motorcycling and lived
Young riders pick a destination. Old riders pick a direction
A good wrench will let you watch without charging you for it
Sometimes the fastest way to get there is to stop for the night
Always back your scoot to the curb, and sit where you can see it
Work to ride, Ride to work
Whatever it is, it's better in the wind
Two lane blacktop isn't a highway, it's an attitude
When you look down the road, it seems to never end. But you'd best believe it does.
A biker can smell a party 5000 miles away (I smell a party)
Winter is nature's way of telling you to polish
A motorcycle can't sing on the streets of a city
Keep your bike in good repair, motorcycle boots are not good for walking
People are like motorcycles, each customized a little differently
If the bike ain't braking properly, you don't start rebuilding the engine
Remember to pay as much attention to your partner as you do your carburetor
Sometimes the best communication happens when you're on seperate bikes
Well-trained reflexes are quicker than luck
Good coffee should be indestinguishable from 50 weight motor oil
The best alarm clock is sunshine on chrome
Learn to do counterintuitive things that may someday save your life
The twisties, not the superslabs, seperate bikers from the squids
When you're riding lead, don't spit
If you really want to know what's going on, watch what's happening five cars ahead
Don't make a reputation you'll have to live down or run away from later
If the person in the next lane rolls up the window and locks the door, support their view on life by snarling at them
A friend is someone who'll get out of bed at 2 am to drive their pickup to the middle of nowhereto get you when you're broken down
If she changes her oil more than she changes her mind, follow her
Catching a june bug at 70 can double your vocabulary
If you want to get somewhere by nighfall, you can't stop at every tavern
There's something ugly about a NEW bike on a trailer
Hunger can even make roadkill taste good (You kill 'em, we grill 'em)
You gotta be smart enough to understand the rules, and dumb enough to think the game is important
Don't lead the pack if you don't know where you're going
Sleep with one arm through the spokes, and keep your pants on
Practice wrenching on YOUR bike
Everyone Crashes. Some get back on, some don't, some can't
Beware the biker who says his bike never breaks down. Some bikes run on 99 octane ego
Owning two bikes is useful 'cause at least one can be raided for parts at any given time
You'll know she loves you if she offers to let you ride her bike. Don't do it and she'll love you even more
Don't argue with an 18-wheeler
Never be ashamed to unlearn an old habit
Maintnance is as much an art as a science
*A good long ride can clear your head, restore your faith, and use a lot of gasoline
If the countryside seems boring, stop, get off the bike, and go sit in the ditch long enough to appreciate what was here before the asphalt came
If you can't get it going with bungee cords and electricians tape, then it's serious
If you ride like there's no tomorrow, there won't be
* Bikes parked out front mean good chicken fried steak inside
If you want to complain about the pace being set by the road captain, you better be ready to lead the group yourself
Gray haired bikers don't get that way from pure luck
There are Drunk bikers, and there are old bikers, but there are no old drunk bikers
Thin leather looks good in the bar, but it won't save your ass if you go down
The best modifications cannot be seen from the outside
Always replace the cheapest parts first
You can forget what you do for a living with your knees in the breeze
No matter what marque you ride, it's all the same wind
It takes both pistons and cylinders to make a bike run. One is not more important than the other.
