Just a lil rant and rave here.
Had a great day out today. Me and 'er indoors' out, reasonably early, foggy but nice enough.
Anyways, coming home on the A20 I am at 70 mph, pull out, overtake and stay out in middle until I'm 100 yds or so ahead of the car. I go to pull in to nearside again and check blind spot, indicate and guess what?
A fukin wanker in a black beamer undertaking me, I put my arm out in a WTF motion and he just doesn't stop. He just rides on by at 90 mph.
Anyway. I just call him a wanker (hand signs ) and carry on, forgetting about it.
BUT, I get to the lights at 5 ways and the dick is sitting there in traffic and I am filtering down the center and this fuker will not look at us, I stare at this guy and he will not look at me.
I'm like "Oi, you ever fukin look where your fukin driving???"
OMG, I wanted to swipe his mirror SO MUCH! but I reckon I'm the one that will get busted.
Still, a really nice day out we had.
Sorry for Bad Language and I'm just ranting but really, I want to shoot him  ____________________ My Lane Position is always AWESOME!! |

I'm sure there's cagers like that all over the country. Sometimes surprising that they'll avoid eye contact at all costs when they know they've done wrong lol ____________________ 1st bike (Sept'06 - May'10) : 1991 GPZ500S / Current bike (since Nov 2009) : 2003 Suzuki Bandit 600N

Failing to see the problem. See plenty of bikes and cars undertaking. Just do a blindspot check and you're good to go.

If you don't want to take the mirror, just open a rear door, make the twunt get out of his cocoon. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Had a few encounters with BMW drivers.
Tonight I guess I was lucky I didnt end up on ones bonnet.
Possibly the closest call to being knocked off.
Roundabout, Lane 1 & 2 to carry on to the 2nd exit - Lane 3 to carry on to exit 2 or to carry on to exit 3.
Im in lane 3, behind some car (Who I only just pulled in behind from some lights , which is where I guess my luck came in.
Going around, Beemer darts from Lane 1 to lane 3 to carry onto exit 3 - Cue car in front emergency brake, me emergency brake (Ok poor obs, too close) But the bike skidded to lane 2.
Front end dipped, but some how I kept the bike upright.
If I hadnt of gone behing the car in front I would most likely had an off

The must have extra for 2012 BMWs will be an automatic closing system for the rear doors, i.e. a £500 bungie cord.  ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

So, let me get this straight:
You're in the wrong lane, impeding the progress of other road users, and they're in the wrong for passing you?

Was this on the way back into london? If so I know the groove that you speak of. That road is full of muppets. It's nice getting past them as it goes into variable speed limit and tons of lights though  |
