I can attest to this:



I was on a Rally around 2:00AM and the GPS wanted to take me through a farm gate to get to a location on the other side of a bush-covered hill.

I'm guessing cool guy means only getting from first to neutral and revving the daylights out of the donk as you try to stay ahead of the pack off the lights.  BTDT      >:()

Fourth is the one to skip.  Or if you're on a roll after wringing out 2nd, then go to 5th.

Around here in town I usually skip 3rd and use 4th in our lowly 50kph town limits.

I passed a parked car on Main North Road today with the number plate "BIGGLES".  I'd have photographed had I not been driving a bus in service at the time.

A plate with that many letters would cost more than $3295 in Queensland.
I have vanity plates on my bikes, but the family all chipped in for them.
