Default And I thought I hated SUV drivers on cell phones

Today I saw a dumbass on a new f4i with his fancy Icon jacket (no helmet of course) talking on his f*&king cell phone on his bike! I wanted to slap him hard, but I think I'll just keep an eye out for his darwin award. What an idiot.

I've seen cruiser guys do that before. I don't know how they can hear anything on the phone though. I can't really hear the other person on the phone if I'm driving with my window open.

It's all about looking cool y0.

I talk on my cell all the time while riding. How else do you coordinate synchronized wheelies?

LOL, I still hate cagers that talk on their cellphone more as they have a greater potential to kill me while on a bike. The guy on the F4i, well...he's more likely to take himself out.

I driving behind a cruiser in may cage one day, and the guy let go of his throttle to answer the ******* cell phone. So I got a brake lightless gear down. He cut on a sidewalk after he'd sufficently slowed down, and stopped to talk. ******* lunatic.

it was probably the same guy I saw doing 55mph in the right hand lane with a jacket and sunglasses.

he was crouched down like he was doing 120, too.

and it wasnt a windy day, so he had no excuse.

I've wedged my cellphone in my helmet to talk on the phone while I'm stopped, it saves me from having to take off my 1337 helm and gloves.

I've talked on my cell phone riding my scooter once or twice. I don't have to worry about shifting so I can ride one handed pretty easily. I also like to ride down the street with a drink in my left hand resting on my knee.

*slurp*
