I think you could improve it gramatically for betty by replacing "to
replace" with "like", and you could drop the quotation marks too.

New rules Vicroads..

http://www.roadrules.vicroads.vic.gov.au/8_rule_motorcyclists.html

The new rules
There are three new rules for motorcyclists.

No passengers under eight years old. A young child under eight years of
age can’t be carried as a passenger on a motorcycle, unless in a
sidecar.
Travelling in a sidecar. When a sidecar is used, it can only carry the
number of passengers for which it is designed.
No animals between rider and handlebars. Animals can’t be carried
between the rider and the handlebars of a motorcycle.
Exemptions
There is an exemption for farmers. While working, a farmer can carry an
animal between the rider and the handlebars of a motorcycle for up to
500 metres on a road.

What you have to do
If you are carrying young passengers, other than in a sidecar make sure
that they are at least eight years old, they can reach the foot pegs and
they are wearing an approved motorcycle helmet.

Also limit your sidecar passengers and use other ways to transport
animals.

---------------

Does one have to own a farm to be called a farmer?

:-P

What?!  Not even with an ostrich feather? How about if I just brush it
ever so gently over her private parts?

Do you think this conversation is getting a bit out of hand?

Easy peasy. The only time I've ridden with a dog on my bike was on the
Yarra Boulevarde in the 80s. The dog was between me and my pillion.
Nowhere near the handlebars. Dog was having a ball. I must admit to us
both being drunk and am surprised we survived that trip as the VF was
getting sparks off the road where we were bottoming the thing out
constantly as I decided we'd go home via the boulevarde than creeping
quietly home via the direct route.

I once knew of a bloke they called The Farmer, but the only relativity he
had with a farm was that his parents owned a farm and he grew dope in his
backyard in Brunswick.

In my experience ostrich / emu / peacock feathers ar not suited to
violent movement...unless still attached to the bird

They look good but you can't thrash 'em around or they break...they
don't get much thrashing around on the bird either...an Emu / Ostrich is
a bit like a mobile hay bale...the Peacock does at least fly a bit but
the feathers that get all the thrashing are small and like a chook feather

Chook feathers are eminently suitable for administering 'delicate
touches' with, and quite robust...the exotic feathers can be too fluffy
and tickly

Damn right. And if you've got one of those bikes which have the
cylinders sticking out the side, you still find small feathers in the
fins two years later.

If you're looking for feathers that can hurt you, try getting near a
wing-flapping goose.
