Who Rides Here and Do you Wear Your Rolie When You Roll?
I do on my cruiser bikes but when I am at the track I don't wear it crashed three times and I am sure I would have hurt the watch. Made a mistake one time wearing a bracelet that cut up my wrist when I had a lowside around 60mph.
Anyway so do you ride? IF yes, what and do you wear your rollie when you roll.? |

I ride kawi ZX-7R, 2000 model. I wear my Omega, Rolex, Bretiling watches when I ride.
However when I'm on the track, I would wear my rubber strapped Seiko.

I wear my Rolex Sub Date when I am riding, and I have these two Danish made "Biomega" bicycles with a cardanic shaft (NO chain!)

Well, for the short time that I had my Rolex and my bikes, I did ride wearing my GMT. However...now all three bikes are gone, so I guess I'll be back on my Specialized Rock-Hopper. Due to the fact that I'm not a great on something that's manually propelled, I'll probaby have my Tissot on when on that death trap.

Just the normal way. The green model is called "Amsterdam" and has 7 gears (Sram).
And the cream (yellow, and lights in the dark btw, like Superluminova! ) is called "CPH" (Copenhagen), has 3 gears (Shimano) and pedals that can be clicked off when leaving the bike. See more on www.biomega.dk

Sure.. for over 40 years..
I always wear a Rolex when I ride..But not when I'm doing tear-down or maintenance. Then I stick it in my pocket.. |

Been a long time but back in the day I had:
160 Ducati 175 Honda 350 Honda 450 Honda 550 Honda 750 Honda and for variety 125 Yamaha YZ 400 CZ The 450 went over to England and Spain with me for 6 weeks. The 750 went all over Europe 3 years later, then got a 904 kit when I got home.

I wear my Wht.Exp.II when riding my 07 StreetGlide or 02 Fatboy.
Actually I wear it all the time except to sleep or in the shower.

I ride this:
I used to wear a Harley pocket watch on a chain, but may start wearing my Black Monster on the bike. I'm not certain the Gold & Steel of the Rollies would be completely right where I usually wind up... "Boot Hill Saloon", "The Cheyenne Saloon", "Iron Horse Saloon", etc. You get the picture...
