Title: The DoD Squid Purity Test - Just for Fun
Post by: Whisper on February 23, 2011, 02:37:52 AM

  For those new to the internet, once upon a time we mostly had usenet before the web, and usenet has some great 'lists'.  One of my favs is, of course, rec.motorcycles - Home to the Denizens of Doom (DoD).

  The DoD coined the term 'Squid', referring to someone who rode far far beyond the abilities of themselves, their machine, or any sort of sane reasoning.  To determine how much of a squid you may be, they developed a comprehensive Squid Purity Test.  It is nothing short of hilarious.  You can take it here:

Where else can you get the credit you are due from the dealer teaching you how to shift your first bike in the parking lot?  LMAO!

Or from selecting a black helmet, because it is easy to color in the chips and dings with a Sharpieâ„¢?
