on the way home from work at rush hour, 3rd exit off a double lane roundabout onto a short duel carriageway. at first i was shocked and hugely dissapointed as he shot past untill i glanced in the mirror and saw the car driver he had undercut waving and pointing at him to his passenger. as i plodded on behind a car i watched him filter between 2 cars that had stopped at the next roundabout and hurl himself onto it turning right, at least 3 cars beeped at him (or because of him)

it then came clear that he was a plonker and i was right to hang back and not try to catch up etc. live another day an all that.

sadly, was the most dramatic part of the day so far Laughing

when they do it it town I let them go, then you get to the NSL road they are drag racing with a micra, redline sees them hilariously wobble in your mirror Laughing

I think lots of the chav scooterists play up when they see a big bike around, trying to show off.

Coming to think of it lots of big bike riders do the same Laughing

They don't seem to understand the concept of 'filtering' up't'norf.
I've over taken both bigger bikes and scooters while legally filtering... on my £75 halfords-special push bike!

Well I'm "nawvern" and I make good progress.

I half expected this thread to be about my mate's brother actually. He was out on NSR125 and beat some dude on some old big bike off the line, ha.

Was funny to watch.
