[quote=gixermad;2625869]We blame everybody for state of the country and most just get on a plane and fuck off. When you think of all the men and women that lost there lives for Irish freedom my jasus they would turn in there graves. Until we stand up and say enough is enough the pricks in power will keep robing us. It would make you sick, so shut up and do something about it if ye have the balls if not get on a plane and leave it to somebody else.:mad1:[/quote]

100% Correct, like i said we have only ourselves to blame, we need to get out on the streets and PROTEST before its too late:

War in Iran will make no difference there is already a ban on Iran oil.

Price of barrel isn't much different to in 2008 so why such a rise[/quote]

you could,if you had the numbers, get Honda or some other mail bike dealer to come on board, they could subsidise it, they spend a lot of money advertising so if you had a sticker with say "Honda fuel save" or something like that when selling new bikes they could offer a discount fuel card. Just an idea!

All about numbers I am not in any club or bikers association or anything,but someone or somebody needs to do it.

Do you honestly think the blueshirts or the turncoat labour party give a flying fook about a load of lads protesting outside , they are lining their pockets like the last shower of theiving scum did, then retire on a massive golden handshake and lotto-win pension :mad1:.
The sad thing is its going to damage the economy further, and more people will wind up on the labour or emigrating never to return, you can feel good though that all this tax revenue is going to help the debts of fingers fingleton and johnny ronan etc, makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside doesn't it ?

I agree but what do we do sit back and take it or get out there and have our voice heard. think of the traffic chaos if bikers from all over the country decended on the streets of dublin in a well orgainised slow proteston a friday afternoon (and every friday afternoon) untill they listened. There is so many issues facing bikers , like for example the news laws that are due that will ban all bikes over 7 years old from urban areas, bus lanes, the cost for young lads getting into biking etc, etc. its not only the cost of fuel

Buy A CG125 or the like while they're still cheap,probably your only option to keep on biking down the line.Country's had it.Lived abroad for a while,and i regret ever coming back to this shithole. And it was always fucked,this is nothing new.90% of people ever born here had to struggle to survive,and we've always licked the arses of the other 10%. Our leadership is weak,and so are the rest of us. Nothing will ever change here.
