Coming back from Brands Hatch with the bike in the back of a van, chugging down the M25, look in the passenger foot well to see all the tie down straps still there and the bike is loose in the back. Confused

Front wheel slipping on gravel. Although it has to be said my words are rather more expletive than "Oh crap" when that happens.

Coming over a blind crest to find the road flooded with two feet of water.

One particular road in the highlands. Sweeping 80mph left hander with the bike banked right over, your attention is momentarily caught by this sign out of the corner of your eye:

You think "Naaah, not right in the middle of a corner.". Then you see it. Mr. Green Smile Neutral Confused Shocked Crying or Very sad Praying Evil or Very Mad

Going 50mph over the speed limit and then seeing a police car coming the other way, though it tends to be 'Oh crap' followed by pinning the throttle. Laughing

When the revs start to drop and in the sudden panic of it all you don't have time to switch to reserve so you stall, then the car you have just screamed past overtakes you Sad

Sad Had a proper 'Oh crap' moment just now. Everyone was stuck behind a very slow moving lorry. I got to the front of the queue by filtering and picked my moment to overtake. Did it fine, and continued redlining it in every gear until I was doing about 135-140mph (indicated.) There is a corner on this road and I was anticipating it; however it's sweeping enough that I could probably take it at 200mph, so I didn't bother backing off for it. What I did, stupidly, forget, was the traffic lights there. Doh! Brick Wall I would have had plenty of time to stop for them, but I didn't have plenty of time to stop for the queue of stationary traffic leading up to them. Brakes rammed on, rear wheel skipping on the ground, me going 'Oh crap!' Laughing

I stopped with about 10 metres to spare, though I had arranged it so if I didn't stop in time I would be going down the middle of the road. Wouldn't like to try it though!

When going on an unfamiliar road and seeing nuclear impact crater sized pot holes and a big ass SUV going over them behind you like they aren't there.

Late for work, and either a learner (which I understand, the whole idea is that they can't drive and will attempt to do so slowly under instruction. But it still annoys me that I am the one behind them)
or an old couple out for a drive at 30mph and seem to half their front nearside glued to the middle lines round corners so no overtaking, straights on my route all have cars coming the other way, which can be navigated, but at that time of the morning there are a lot of wide lorries being driven in the roads I use.

Either will make me seeth with anger.

Then you get there, "your late",. "yeah I got stuck behind..",. "oldest one in the book mate leave earlier"

Grrrr Middle Finger
