Agreed, especially the Keys in pocket thing, usually after gloves are on and I'm already on the bike.

9. Bike suddenly won't start... after mad rushing through possible causes, battery ok Spark plug ok key turned on ok... Bike stand down Doh

10.  The itch in your ear will only start once you are on the road in heavy traffic.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

A traffic jam, or railway boom gates will only hold you proportionate to the time you have to travel to your destination or next appointment.

Credit card fees are always applied the night before your account is printed, taking you just over your limit, and incurring late fees and overdue fees, (for which, when contacted are very sorry.) 

(Hang on, that's not motorcycles Murph's. Very sorry. Make it bike payments. Same crooks - different division.)
