The only thing gay around here is the fact that you cant get enough trying to get men on there knees. Now you can make things up to say why but I really think the real reason that you want men on there knees is so you can mabe get a sneek in on maybe one of them to foefill your sexually needs

Welcome back Lois.

I see that Gibbs aint too happy that you are back but, he is young and will get over it sooner or later that Red is fastest.
Especially if he ever gets here to ride his color we do not speak Bird against my Red Bird.

Yea I'm back too! I think we need to nominate Logoman as our next president!!!! That way he can impose a law to impound all the slower colors that clog up traffic and only the fastest SILVER's can ride on the streets. Lois you got your hands full for the story telling going on in here.

A very funny thing happened about two weeks ago. I was in my garage , sitting on my motorbike, with the door open......

The last thing I remember was putting the key in the ignition.

Now two weeks later here I am.

The really weird thing is I can't remember where I have been, but I do vagley remember lapping this UPS truck ......3 times.

Funny story right?



Lois... that doesn't sound funny. It sounds sad. So you either sat in your garage for two weeks with the key in the ignition cause you couldn't find a nice downhill to get some forward momentum going or you actually found some sort of large downhill and got your bike rolling fast enough to pass a UPS truck three whole times and were still able to make it back to your garage. You do know that passing a UPS truck three times is not all that impressive even if you are coming down a large hill. It also took you two weeks to do it. I hope that you are also aware that UPS trucks have to make lots of stops for pick ups and deliveries. Often times they are at a stop for 10-15 minutes. Now that does sound like some serious speed for a redbird. You must have been on top of a very large mountain in order to gain enough momentum to actually pass that UPS truck 3 times in two weeks. That must be a record or something.

PH005 was looking for you. Now at least he will know what you've been up to. You were busy. Busy spending the last two weeks passing up a UPS truck three times.

Strek Strek Strek, Calm down you poor little thing you. Geeez you UPS delivery guys certainly get worked up when passed by a " Fastest " motorcycle. Now go sit down in your big ol' chair and cool yourself down with a Bud, or something.

ps Glad to see the Red Leader back from the Olympic closing ceremony. Gee that was some stunt on the Red Bird Lois.

STREK - I love you long time too.......but I'm pretty sure it was the UPS truck with some slow assed silver side fairling in it..........get it now, or do I need to go get some crayons and draw a little stick picture for you?... I swear you are just as slow as your your bike....which is pretty slow.
Now maybe if your momy and daddy weren't related ,you wouldn't have problems with trivial little things like why RED is faster than the rest of the clours.....but you can't help it, can you? So I will be nice and stop pointing out your short comings to you. Sorry buddy.


OUTLAWGIBS - about the whole on your knees thing. Listen, for a guy who's new avatar is a couple of fugs bucking, you should maybe shut up about the whole "Lois is gay" thing.....ok, cause in reality, you are more than likely some weird little shut in ,who, while wearing a David Bowei wig ,and, one of your sisters purple cocktail dressed, plays with little motorcycle toys while watching re-runs of the Braidy Bunch.....I mean really, how can someone as wierd and badly dressed as yourself try to poke fun at someone as cool and fast as me and the RED crowd...?



You are both living proof that the Indian did infact ,F_ _ _ the buffalo.
Now both of you stop licking your neibours front windows and toddle off home now.




<------weird clour clan......and...< ----yup , you guessed it...the red brigade

PH005 now that is just wrong even for this thread.

"Cool myself down with a Bud????"

TRUE BLACKbird riders have much better taste and wouldn't drink that swill. We leave the Bud for the riders of slower colors. While we BLACKbird riders are waiting for you riders of slower colors to make it to the Pub we are drinking the great beers. That's probably why you are familiar with Bud and thought that someone else may actually like that swill. The TRUE BLACKbird riders have already consumed all of the good beer by the time you get to the pub and all that is left is Bud. Well Bud does come in red cans. I'll have a Hacker Pschorr or Guinness while you are drinking your Bud. I'll even buy you redbird riders a round of your favorite Bud beer. I'm thinking that you are so slow that you are probably drinking Bud light in an effort to drop wieght in order to try to catch a TRUE BLACKbird so I'll buy the first couple of rounds and have some nice bud light lined up for you riders of the red color when you do finally do get to the pub. I hope the pub is at the bottom of a hill so that you don't have to push your bikes all the way there.

Lois... Thanks for the love. Your little UPS truck even with a silver faring in it still has to make lots of stops for pickups and deliveries so even that UPS truck is not all that fast my friend. It might just seem fast to you riders of slower colors. I would love to see your illustration of it in crayon though. Don't forget to draw that big hill in that got you started in the first place. As for my parents... Both have passed on by the way and sorry to burst your bubble but no, they were not related by blood. You see here in the Chicagoland area we have a lot of people to pick from unlike what you experience in Red Deer. There are millions of people in this area. So Unlike some of you folks from rural area's up North we can easily find wives/girlfriends that we are not related to. The redbird riders around here do struggle since this if flatland country with no hills to get them moving and they don't get out much. I know that the pickings are pretty slim up there in Red deer. For you its either sleep with blood or go play for the other team. So which is it for you?

Well, one of the ways that we practice safe sex up here , is by marking a big "X" on the cows that kick.


Sorry about your parents.

And, you are still so slow, that I can use you for a sun dial.


Red is where it is at. The other clours were just an after though....a mistake if you will. But then again, I guess that even the sissy lala's of the world need something to ride on too.

But look at the bright side, all you wrong clour riders can wear rubber boots with your pants tucked in when you ride, and still look funny.






kneel suckers.................kneel

Man, I've been away for too long. I see the black and red XX owners have that all too familiar white Risperdal residue caking their lips again.

I don't mean to rain on your parade, but curling up with a photo of Phil Donahue and touching yourself is more of a short term distraction rather than a long term solution to your fast bike delusions.

You really only have two choices if you want speed. A) ride a silver XX (after a week or two of riding bitch to acclimate to the power) or B) have someone take a video of you riding your bikes and then play it back at a Charlie Chaplinesque 4X.

Logoman... So I guess that you like riding that bike without your faring part. Lois tells me he passed up that UPS truck with your faring part in it 3 times. Since Lois has a red bike and has to find large hills to get going and was also able to pass up that UPS truck I figure your part is still on its way. I've also got to figure that it must be pretty slow even with all of the stops that UPS truck has to make and with all of the added speed that your silver part added to that UPS truck Lois was still able to pass it up three times. Three times. I mean theres some big mountains and hills out there but come on. Three times??? By the way Lois was going to draw me a picture of this with crayons to document this speed record event.

Red Rules the road and red rules my CBR1100XX as well as it rules your CBR1100XX Super Blackbirds what ever color they may be.
Pull your heads out into the light, breathe some oxygen, realize the truth.
Red CBR1100XX Super Blackbirds are where it's at.

Fasterspider... You just feel that way because you have a lot of hills and mountains around you to get your red bike going. I know I've seen the photos in your gallery and the video. Lots of mountains and hills. You know if you take your bike in for the recall you won't need to find a hill to get your forward momentum going.

I haven't seen Pee Wee myself but I hear that he is spending some quality time in theaters with riders of birds that are not TRUE BLACKbirds. From what I understand they are all having a great time together and at the same time improving their grip. I hear that the police are on their way. Well at least you all won't have to worry about pushing your bikes back home as the police will impound them.

Fasterspider... He was just trying to make you feel better when he saw you pushing your bike to the top of that hill to get it going.

Boys, boys. My fairings arrived long ago and the UPS delivery trucks that brought 'em are still in the shop getting repairs.

The word "Tonka" on the side of the ones you've been riding circles around should've been a dead giveaway, but I guess the sound of those squeaky training wheels and the tea pot whistling coming out of your mufflers are a bit of a distraction.

This just in...UPS is mandating that, from now on, each truck carry a full set of red and black XX plastics as an extra emergency brake. To activate, the driver will yank off a silver cover used to neutralize the braking effect during everyday driving.

Ya sure, that will be the day. Tonka????? nice try my slow little friend, but did you ever notice that only important things are the colour red....like fire engines (don't get me started....LOL) and super duper fast motorcycles....like my XX???????

Not to many people know this but the word "TONKA" is an old leelo churo Indian word for " Almost as fast as a red bird", so thanks for the complement....really.

So anyways.....you slow coloured guys can all stand around mooing like a bunch of cows in heat over this thing....or you can just lay down and give it up.

RED = FAST clour = slow.

So why don't you and your little herd of moo cow want ta be's just stop wasting every's time with this nonsense. The grass is in fact greener on my side of the fence...try it, you will like it.

Besides, despite popular belief....speed does not kill.....cows on the road do.
