- Is petrol the new currency / gold?
- Are sundays sacred days to ride bikes?
- How about including some festival days like one in summer to mark ones entrance into the biking season.
- Symbolic food and drink? ( bacon rolls and tea work well at the local cafe)
- Is it ok to take thy neighbours bike and give it a ride?
- Points indeed make prizes but too many maybe against my religion.
- A 4 wheeled vehicle is no longer a bike
- thou shall not put diesel in ones tank

Bri,

Yup I was one of them too (an alter boy not a young rider ).

Thou shalt worship the Tarmac but you may only touch it with Rubber , for good Rubber brings great joy . Thou must not touch the Tarmac with Leather nor Flesh for that bringeth the ouchies

Our Father who art in the Twisties,
hallowed be thy throttle.
Thy Road come,
Thy will be done,
on earth as it is in the Twisties.
Give us this day our daily fuel,
and forgive us our speeding tickets,
as we forgive those who speed against us.
And lead us not into the hedge,
but deliver us from motorways.
for Thine is the Road,
the power and the Tarmac
For ever and ever.
Amen

The Ten Commandments
1- The one true vehicle is the motorcycle , and thou shalt put no other vehicles before it.
2- Thou shalt not bow down and worship nor serve the God of Chrome; for, lo, he is a false god and will not get thy butt home.
3- Honor thy authorized dealer and the motorcycles they sell, and that thy days may be long and fruitful in the land of Riding.
4- Remember the weekend, and keep it open. For it is written, five days shalt thou labor, and for two days shalt thou ride thy bike, drink beer, and have some FUN.
5- Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s bike, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his cute old lady.
6- From the throne of thy two wheeled contrivance, thou shalt hail all thy biker brethren no matter what they are seated upon (….even if it is a Triumph) - let those who ride decide
.7- Thou shalt not pass by nor turn away from thy brother biker who is in mechanical distress
.8- Thou shalt not pose. Verily, I say unto you, it is easier for a poser to pass his gold Visa card through the eye of a needle than to enter into the true fellowship of motorcycle heaven.
9- When riding thy sled on the Road of Life, thou shalt not whine nor snivel, and thou shalt not suffer to ride alongside those who do.10- Park not thy bike in the darkness of thine garage, that it may collect dust for want of being oft ridden. Ride thy motorcycle with thy biker brethren, and rejoice in the spirit of the road and the wind.

thou shall ride in all weathers come rain or shine, for only the true beliver is master of all conditions and therefore his stead
exert from the book of rictus

you will fall for all men fall at some point, but faith in your gear and proper adornment of these things shall bring you back to where you belong, pain in the wallet is less than pain of the body
quote from sir dave of preston writer of the book of dismount

[Old Git]

'Thy head shal remain covered with protective adornment while filling thy steed with go-go juice'

If its a religious adornment, they can't make you take it off at Tesco, BP Esso Etc.

Proverbs I.

Upon the earth hath God let many and various forms of goodness multiply and grow. From the earliest forms of Royal Enfield and Indian unto the great and mighty Supersport. Thus, did He express His awe and power upon the world.

But Satan did not rest. He moved also upon the earth, and in Milwaukee did he vent his wroth. The dark angel did steal from a tractor the engine and suspension and with these did he pollute the Lord God's creation.

Satan also knew of man's weakness for the shiny. So he enrobed his agricultural contraption in glistening chrome. In such ways does Satan tempt those weak in spirit away from the path of sportyness.

God, in his might, learned of the works of Satan and did decree that his creations too would have a shiny side. The Lord God distained the easy glitter of chrome, and did make instead fairings and bellypans that did not impede the making of progress.

Yea, know ye men, that the path to righteousness shall not be easy. For Satan rests not, and is unceasing in his fury to destroy God's shinyness with loss of grip and target fixation. Thus, shall ye recognise a righteous man. For he shall keep it shiny side up, and even wear the stickiest rubber in his pursuit of sportyness.


Proverbs II.

In the land of London, wherin live the tribe of Soho, there came a righteous man. He did ride verily upon the ragged edge of grip, and seek the acme of sportyness. But this righteous man did fall upon hard times and did suffer a breakdown by the side of the road.

While he stood beside his machine in the rain, did pass by a Pedboy. But the Pedboy feigned ignorance and passed by the righteous man without a glance or a nod.

Next did pass by a Harley Rider. But the Harley Rider had no concern save that the rain might rust his glistening chrome or stain his ar5eless chaps. He too passed by the righteous man without a glance or a nod

Next did pass by the lowliest of female SV riders. She had little mechanical knowledge and a scant manufacturers toolkit. But she did stop, and with her tools the righteous man's machine was restored.

So, know ye men, that the path or righteous lies not with the Pedboy, nor with the Harley Rider. The way to heaven lies within the brotherhood of bikers, wherin even the lowliest rider might find righteousness and justice. For they will not leave not a pilgrim stranded beside the deserted road.

Bloody typical. Proverbs II contradicts Commandments 9.
