Pulling away from the pumps at the local garage, did a U turn in the forecourt and headed for the exit. Some lunatic in a massive silver Land Cruiser hurtled in from the roundabout, and headed straight for me. Only the fact that a bike can accelerate in milliseconds got me out of the way, he missed me by a whisker, and his reactions were so shit that he braked AFTER he shot past me.

I stopped, and was about to go and read him his fortune, when I clocked that he looked almost identical to the AIDS infected african pyscho who bit 2 of my colleagues (and best mates) at work on sunday, possibly infecting them with HIV.

I felt the red mist descending, but realised that I'd probably do something immensely regrettable, and decided discretion was the better part of valour as I screamed off.

Seriously pissed off, I've got enough to worry about without contemplating my imminent mortality AND not even have the satisfaction of a frank exchange of opinions with the gentleman in question.

Thumbs Down

How's he going to bite you through leathers? Headbutt him and break his jaw with your helmet Thumbs Up

Seriously though, glad he missed you. Makes you wonder how some people get on the road.

Good on you mate for not doing anything more.

If mr. go-through-the-lights-when-they're-red-and-ignore-any-incoming-traffic cyclist uttered "loser" again once more to me, he would have been a victim of push over and run...c*nt.

Petrol stations are dangerous places! A few weeks ago I had filled the bike up, and was pulling away from the pumps, slowly when a car on the other side of the pumps came hairing through. I slammed on my brakes - the bike being at an angle - nearly dropping it in the process! Twisted Evil Evil or Very Mad

A woman in a freelander nearly got me yesterday.

So I followed her, overtook her and proceeded to go 30mph in a 60mph zone for about 2 miles and then 15mph in a 30 zone untill I carried on with my journey.

Nigerian male, approx 5'10, approx 13 stone, arrogant attitude visible from 10 feet away, white shirt, black trousers.


Any other questions?

I deal with every nationality under the sun on a daily basis, when I say someone looks like someone else, you can safely assume it's nothing as simple as "he's black too".

Hopefully the HIV infected chap you referred to in your original post is still safely under lock and key in the Detention Centre. It would be very worrying that he had been released and already running around in a 4x4!! Shocked

More worrying things have happened. We've noticed that a general rule of thumb with Fast Track is that the more problems someone causes within the Detention Estate, the more likely they are to be released. I've been at the centre for 14 months now, and in that time we've released on 'Temp Admission' dealers, rapists, murderers, the lot.

Scary stuff.

Tbh I'm worried shitless, AND feeling guilty. I was in the bend-up too but got away scot-free. Obviously I don't wish I'd been injured, but almost feel like I'm letting the guys down. Stupid, but unavoidable.

I was coming off a roundabout in the outside lane the other day when a blue merc in the inside lane thought it would be good idea to do a U-turn to get back to the roundabout. Didnt check his mirrors no shoulder check.

Both thee brakes locked on some gravel and i just managed to keep it upright......Wnker

Two finger salute and on I went still shaking.

The Cagers were at it again today. Zipping along a dual carriageway at 50mph, when a chap in a clapped out old astra, having seen 2 lanes of traffic heading towards him, decided that his best option was to jump across them into my lane, and then fluff his gear change and wallow along at about 10 mph.

Cock.

He narrowly avoided being run down by the truck in the nearside lane, and only avoided ending my short life thanks to me being a bit wary of twats in cars at the moment.
