Most fun you can have with your clothes on......indeed, with the right pillion.........its the most fun you can have with your clothes off!

can't remember --- had first bike when i was 7 !!??

Umm I dunno really? My dad always liked nice cars and bikes. And he had a bike when I was born, but cant remember that, as he sold it soon after.

But I just always liked it, my mum use to buy my superbike every month for me, since I was about 10, and will always remember when I got to the centre and it was a ducati 916 and had the topless bird on it and I went to my mum, "Why did they ruin the picture with thaT girl" and she just laughed and said "You wont be saying that soon" Damn right she was

But when it came to my first time on a bike I was scared stiff and held on for life apparently, it was only round stoke on a GSXR750, and I was only like 10 I think.

But since then i been hoked and my dad bought bikes again when I was like 14 and always went pillion, then I got MX bikes, and then I got a ped.................and now I ride the ZXR400 and I love the fact that your the minority and its just a rush every time I get on it.

But unfortunatly I am getting a car for my job and to try and save damage to my bike, and to transport my bike to races

just because i like bikes thats all simple really

When I was a youngster, my father used to own a 250cc and would take me out and about on it from time to time and I really enjoyed that

I really like bikes. I enjoy being pillion and would dearly like to be sat on the front seat 'in control', but at the moment I can't seem to find time to practice and I suppose I'm a bit of a wuss really....

Anything to push the boundaries - just need a constant rush - bikes do it for me

Got my first bike with my second ever wage packet at 16 (drank the first wage packet ;) ) Was for a bit of freedom as most of my friends were a year or so older and driving.

My dad and brother both had bikes from when I was old enough go on the back so it kinda had to come.

I ride a bike for the excitement.

started on cars and i got a faster one then i got a faster one until i thought sod this cars are dear and slow and boring so balls i am going to do my bike test, never looking back the only time i want to get in my car is when i really have to

Wasnt really that interested but needed something for transport, so got a bike. Some biking must be in my blood, My grandad was a great bicycle racer (He could do 100miles in just over 4hrs!!!) and only ever had a bike license, although drove a Robin Relaint when the kids were bored, but you'd always catch him leaning into to the corners (and tipping it over meny times )

Always watched whatever biking there was on the TV and then went to Donington for the Moto GP.

Came back went pillion on a mate's bike for a few months until he got fed up and I was nagged to do CBT. Wished I had done it soon but haven't looked back had the best summer ever even if it was on a 125!!

Have passed my test in the last couple weeks and the Bandit is mine on Saturday and can't wait!

when we were 16 all my male friends had fizzys (particularly fond memories of a little yellow passola bless) went pillion a few times, liked it, bikes got bigger and i went out with one of them and got properly hooked. couldnt afford to do cbt til i was 22 did direct access this june, got the ninja and havent looked back since. cant imagine life without em

Im yet another fizzie rider, had it to go to college, fell off(mother) made to drive a car for XXXX years. Needed a cheap form of transport(scooter). got the bug and bought a proper bike and it only took 25 years to get back on.

I used to ride home from my grandma's house on the tank of my dads Francis Barnet when I was three (1962!!!!!), was hooked from then on. Miss my dad very much xxxxx
