While working in the shop a few days ago, I started thinking about what is the more rewarding relationship, A Girl or a bike, now if were talking over all here, clearly the girl is the best choice, for the most part but I think I can make a decent argument for the bike.
1. You never need to ask permission to ride your bike.
2. Your Bike never gets Jealous if I take a friends for a test ride.
3. A 3-Way fixes everything. :thumb:

Thats all I came up with so far, any other ideas? Pros or cons.

Hey and you can't really contract any disease from the bike when you test ride it.

There is no trail ride that can EVER be better than GREAT SEX....!!!!


...might be a couple that come close though... ;)
This is definitely true, but he did not as about a ride vs sex, he asked about a bike vs a woman. And I can tell you without even flinching that my bike requires a whole lot less maintenance than does my woman.

In my book... bike = #1, woman is somwhere mid-pack.

The more time I spend with my bike, the fitter I get. The more time I spend with women, the fatter I get.
:stupid:

I've definitely gained weight and lost fitness over the past 2+ years... and although I've managed to get my finances in order (zero c-card debt :cool: ) I still don't have any money... :think:

AHHAHA that's right...

-If you had it with your bike, you can just put it away, or throw it aside.
:p I don;t know if that will be a wise thing to do your girlfriend.

-Bikes don;t have a period, only mechanical problems.. so no headachs when you wanna ride, your bike always wanna ride, when it's ready for it. :sneaky: :p

A bike is better than a woman because you don't have to watch a bike order the most expensive thing on the menu and then not eat even half of it

Agree also, my girl kicks butt, is supportive of my riding/managing/racing. Although she knows very little about bikes shes always willing to listen to me blab on and on about bike stuff or frustrations with racing/managing/my bikes, she comes to support me at events when possible. I would never give her up for a bike and she knows how much riding means to me so she'd never ask me to give up riding for her, prefect world, girl and the bike! I'm a happy guy.

Bikes are like women, you get all excited when you get a new one, but after a few rides it feels just like the old one.

Ooohh, I'm gonna die in an ugly way if my wife reads this.

lol! so true man, so true. i've never understood how someone can pay for food and then not eat all of it. it's beyond my comprehension.
in the past 5 years(i'm 21), i don't regret losing a girlfriend. but i miss some bikes i've sold. i don't wonder what an old girlfriend is up to, but i wonder if my old Super 8 is still in commision.
i'm not gonna deny that there's some great women out there, but i think a lot of times a great girl-friend is a bad girlfriend. same goes for guys, though, ya know.

Moderation in all things.

If your bike:girl ratio favors the bike too much, you unwittingly annoy everyone around you by turning any innocent comment within earshot into vocalized sexual innuendo.

If your bike:girl ratio favors the girl too much, you unwittingly annoy every girl around you by turning any innocent comment within earshot into vocalized references to biking.

It's a symbiotic thing. Good biking makes you fitter for good sex...which makes you appreciate time spent biking...which then makes you appreciate time spent boots knocking...etc.

There's one thing that a girlfriend can do for you, that a bike could never (and should never) do.



That's right.. You've got it.



Yeah, you know what I'm talkin' about...





...a good foot rub!

This is true, but as most of us know, the #1 cause of reduced libido in women is wedding cake.
Biggest load of CRAP ever :D

You just need to find the right woman. Unfortunately, finding the right woman is a LOT harder than finding the right bike. And the consequences of landing the wrong woman are way worse than getting the wrong bike.

Ugh. People who have "caloused [sic] stank ass feet with yellow sea shell-like toenails" shouldn't even ask to have their feet rubbed, and should consider it a favor straight from God that a girl even deign to touch 'em. But some of us, dh girlie, actually wash our feet once in a while, which means far less encouragement (read: begging) is required.

Reciprocating the favor helps too, of course, but that applies to a lot more than foot rubbin' :D :evil:

A bike is never better than a good relationship. The flip side of that being that in a good relationship, you shouldn't have to constantly ignore the bike in favor of the girl...

As LL said, all things in moderation.

Hmm.. This begs the question, do they have less balls than you - that is, smaller in size, or do they in fact have fewer balls than you?

Which is worse? Would you rather have a uni-nut of normal size, or a couple of tiny tic-tacs knocking around down there?

Either way, it would be a difficult thing to have less OR fewer than stosh, given dh girlie's assumption of having no balls whatsoever... (I don't think they count as yours if they are not in your possession)

This thread is hopelessly lost...

:blah: :blah: remember Jim Carrey's feet in dumb and dumber...when the girl had to bring out that grinder to grind his toe nails down...HAHAHA!! I saw some guy come into this restaurant in Monterey the other day...he was wearing flip flops...and he had the feet I was describing...I nearly puked my meal up it was so gross... :blah: :dead:

A good woman is far superior to even the best bike out there. Comon now...
Riding bikes is fun, but if the most rewarding and important thing to you is your bike, Im sorry but you have some priority issues.

This just sounds like something a single guy who has woman troubles would say.

You can still have lots-o "fun time" with the girls regardless of wether you have a "girlfriend" , on the other hand, borrowing a bike whenever ya need one is much harder to do....
