Because motorbikes don’t sound like “Gin”, probably.
are u just cutting and pasting their faces for each panel?

@ jonathan: LOL!
Rrrum! would be better. Moses as a biker, eh? I think the next strip would be when Moses returns having crashed the bike.
I am pretty sure this is a reference to Che Guevara’s motorcycle trip through South America.
Love it. The “what are you rebelling against?!” line is an absolute classic.
Yo Pahan you wrong dawg thay be coppin from The Wild One peace g
maybe there is some motorcycle related intertextual reference here – consider the Lotus – actually didn’t they make cars?
Maybe it’s just because Moses is the kind of dude that would ride a bike.
If there had been bikes that long ago.
To me, it seems to be a reference to “Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance” — an introspective novel about one man’s search for truth and meaning, starting with the premise that nothing which he was brought up to believe in was really 100% true and reliable.
Surely it’s a reference to Moses’ Song of Triumph on crossing the Red Sea (Exodus 15:1-19)
But of course Moses was a biker… for it is said that the roar of Moses triumph was heard throughout the land
iain: Nice one!
Bring back the old Moses that wanted to control the TV set.
Dudes, Moses being a biker and saying “What have you got” is a reference to Marlon Brando’s the Wild One.

The dreariest book I ever read. Talk about self-obsessed, it was less a novel, more an exercise in literary masturbation. And he was a shit husband and father. I’m glad I got my copy from a charity shop ‘cos I’d have hated to have given him some royalties for putting me through that drivel.
Jesus & Mo (the characters) are absurd, blinkered, and oddly very sweet. J&M (the cartoon) is brilliant: sharp, delicious, irresistible. Salman Rushdie
Jesus and Mo cartoons are wonderfully funny and true. Richard Dawkins
Jesus and Mo make the world a better place, bless their little hearts. Ophelia Benson
In a world defined by outrage and offence and liberal spinelessness, Jesus and Mo is a treasure, whose value we should never fail to recognize. Read them. Laugh. And think. Kenan Malik
The brilliant, celebrated, freaking hilarious atheist comic strip ... Greta Christina
...rays of sanity in a befuddled world. Keri Hulme
The liveliest depictions of Muhammad currently available... Malise Ruthven
J & Mo is the funniest and most consistently thought-provoking cartoon strip on the Net. In a saner world, it would run in a major newspaper. Nelson Jones, Heresy Corner
Consistently amusing, frequently thought-provoking and often heart-warming. New Humanist
Jesus & Mo is one of the most wonderful things on the internet.. JT Eberhard
Wittily captures much of the absurdity of religious apologetics. Mano Singham
I love jesusandmo.net cartoons - witty and sharp! Katha Pollitt
Often hilarious, frequently wry, these cartoons do what all the best cartoons do: they tell the truth through humour. Terry Sanderson, NSS President
...a wonderfully acid British cartoonist... Nick Cohen
I love the scrappy mockery of Jesus and Mo. Freedom of speech
includes the freedom to mock any person, any thing, any activity, and
any belief -- and J&M stands up for this unflinchingly Richard Stallman
...empowering, important and deeply progressive, not to mention hilarious... Council of Ex-Muslims
