Ok, which of you nutters was it?

[Wonko The Sane]

I got passed this evening by a chap on a BMW GS filtering through light traffic on the M60 clockwise while stood up (I was slowing for a slip-road)

Anyone on here?

I'd have stood up too... I reckon that trying to pass a welshman would make ones eyes water, probably require stitches too

The only time I've ever felt the need to stand up on the footrests is when going over speed bumps not wanting to slow down to 20mph, can't imagine why BMW guy was doing it...

Ive stood up before just to stretch my legs.

[ScaredyCat]

Standing up gives you a much better view of the traffic ahead. I often do it to see over 4x4's

Is it naughty to stand up? I'm tall and do it to stretch legs from time to time

I sometimes stand to get a bit more comfort on the potholed welsh lanes I have to ride down.

[Wonko The Sane]

[Rogerborg]

I stand up whenever a lady biker enters the road.

I think it's something with GS riders... Saw a guy on his GS riding while stood up around my area. Maybe it's some sort of condition?
