As do the people that go slow, so you overtake them at which point they are up your arse revving their engine so you move...

I also hate this.

I went for a ride with some people on Sunday, and we hit some twisty roads, me and a guy on an 1198 were leaving everyone behind on the twisties, but this one guy that was out with us, kept coming past me at traffic lights, and then trying to not let me past down the twisty roads, bloody idiot. Every time we stop, he would go to the front of the group, then hold me and the guy on the Duc up, for no reason.

I get this all the time, I filter at my normal speed. Come up behind someone who was obviously going slower than me (or else I wouldnt have caught up!) so 1 of 2 things happen. They either go hell for leather and take every chance going to get away or I go past and its such an insult they have to take every chance to keep up. The point being that I ride at MY pace the whole time. Too much pride some people

Had this on the way to Brecon at the weekend. A guy on a blue something-or-other, possibly a VFR, got past me in Hereford and then proceeded to do some silly looking overtakes in and out of a line of traffic as we got up to NSL. I waited for a straight but, zoomed past all of them and then found myself stuck behind him at 55.

Stopped for a fag and a much needed slash, caught him up in about 15 minutes and didnt hang about the next time

It's easier to follow someone than it is to lead, especially when filtering, in many cases I think this factor has a lot to do with things.

I've caught people quickly, and passed them, only to find them easily keeping up, and vice versa.

Best bet is to catch someone, then hang back, following for a bit, deciding whether the speed is ok. If you're convinced you can go faster in front, apply pressure, if not, keep your distance.

had a guy today on his rs125,filtered past him and then as the cg only does about 60 he zoomed off,next set of traffic lights he has a go at filtering to the front fails and blocks my way

pain in the ass striaght road riders

I just let 'em go... if they are slower than me overtake them then keep going at the pace I want...but sometimes push the monkey boys to go faster to see if there are any cameras or speed traps ahead

I hate it when cars overtake you on a straight, normally some nob in a merc, then they go so bloody slowly round the corners. In a NSL i normally keep it between 60-80 depending on my mood, which seems to bait some drivers into overtaking you at 100+, then their hard on the brakes slowing down to 40-50 for every tiny corner. You think about overtaking, but on the next bit of straight rode you find the car is going 80 again and it might cost you your life or license to get past.

I've had this happen a few times lately and been very tempted to sneak a pass up the inside, but then i remember i'm not playing GTA

And chavs on mopeds get in the way too!

I usually get cars sit up my arse after I've overtaken them too. They see I'm a chick on a bike and don't like me being faster

To be fair, had a 2007+ VFR blocking me going through traffic as he couldn't get past to cars as he had luggage attached - was on a 125 then when i met behind him at a set of traffic lights on red he was reving his engine because i guess he thought I was a 600 and felt stupid for not being able to get between two cars, then a van pulled up to the right lane and he thought that meant it was green whizzed straight through a red hitting about 60mph.. bad luck for him as they had one of those cameras to see who runs red lights and that made a big flash, dont think he noticed but liked how it checked his mirrors to see if i was behind him

If I've given someone the chance to overtake (one would presume through not riding as fast as them); then fair play to them.

It can be irksome catching up to them filtering in traffic, but generally just means you have a chance to put your creative filtering skills to use. Similarly around a corner; well you get a chance to get them going out of the corner (or around it/going in if you're not worried about upsetting them a bit more.)

After watching someone nearly put his bike into a hedge on a group ride out I told him to slow down and not to try and keep up. He seemed to listen
