What a  :handjob



Although, riding through bristol dock area the other day (at the 40mph speed limit) some cock, and thats the best discription, tried undertaking me on his 125 as i moved out for my sightline through a left hand bend:shocked what a cock!!
Ahem, that's considered a cracking overtake on this side of the water  :leaving

Around the outside is the best way, especially if you get chance to tap them on the shoulder on the way past
I've yet to do this, although have contemplated it  :innocent

Speaking of fuckwits™ me and Chamz spotted some on the way to Aberdare yesterday  :handjob

We were coming off the 470 on the main roundabout and turned left to go towards Aberdare over the cattle grid.

There were a few bikes parked up obviously meeting to go to the races.

I hoisted a nice wheelie past them to say hello  :innocent

Then about a mile up the road Chamz and I are taking it steady going into Aberdare as I thought the filth would be out in force booking bikers entering the races.

The guys who were parked up (and one girl, on a blade although she was riding sensibly)
then hooned right up my arse so I waved them through.

Overtaking on the hatchings in the 30 limit doing about 60ish.
really aggressive overtaking too.
Getting RIGHT up to the car in fronts bumper before swerving out and back in again.

Is there any need for it?
Why not just be smooth  :scratch

Rant over

Argh your sig gives me a headache!   :tt.
I've only ever had one issue with a biker and it was quite scary (to me at least as I was only 19 at the time!).
I was riding with my OH, we were about a mile from a roundabout I was unfamiliar with and this biker over took me but then slowed down!
So I was now going slower than I had been originally and the gap between me and my oh was getting bigger and the roundabout closer so I overtook.
The biker then overtook me and shook his hand at me.
It clicked then that maybe he was a copper or knew there was a copper near by so I slowed down.
My other half found me later on and we ended up going to story arms and there was the biker who had shook his fist at me!
He came right up to me and said I could have been an off duty policeman and have you done for overtaking me....
WHAT?!
I was so angry that some self righteous ass had decided to overtake me just to slow me down and then lecture me!
I wasn't even going that fast, about 60/70 which was within the legal limits and I was on a restricted bike at the time.
I thought he was a right bully as he didn't dare do it to my OH who was speeding at 90 around the bends!
Or anyone else racing around breacon that day, so why the hell pick on me and frighten me.
Prick.
