bit of a rant

what is it with car drivers these days,they either drive like michael shoepolish and smash up or kill people in the process or the complete opposite and drive like complete numptys and drive way too overcausiously, a typical example is the idiots are driving on the speed limit at ‘27mph’ and when they come to a slight bend slow down to 20mph or… nope im gonna stop cos this will be endless…

It’s the difference between those that can afford the petrol, and those than can’t - Green Party eat your heart out

Bit of a sweeping statement don’t you think?

You missed out Taxis, Busses, Cyclists, Pedestrians and Scooterists by the way;):smiley:

and bikers

…lmao

I hate it when you on a natonal and the car in front is doing 40mph.

yeah most of em totally unaware of anything outside their car like those strange looking obstacles with speed limits on em…:smiley:

There’s also the fact that speedometers (sp) are set up so that it looks like your going about 2-3 mph faster than you actually are. GPS devices usually back this up

I of course stand to be corrected :slight_smile:

beware of other road users at this time of year - because all the Fairweathers pack it in for the winter, only the all-year commuters are out, which means less bikes on the road and thus less reminders that we are about…

please take EXTRA care :angry:

on a side note if you go through a speed camera at 50ish and it dosen’t flash does that mean you won’t get sent a ticket?:Whistling:

if its one of the digital ones, they dont flash - theyre not as big as the huge gatso ones…

oh dear guess i’ll just have to wait

Sh*t. I had no idea! I always thought I was fine if there was wasnt a first flash so would be back up to speed before the end of the road markings. Whoops!

Getting back to car drivers I took my srad out for a spin last night as i hadnt ridden it since the off at silverstone everything was fine, untill i got to a rounderbout at wrotham near the oakdene, im on the out side of a car comming to the rounderbout (two lanes) im turning right indicating some cage driver squeezed between me and the rounderbout bibbing his horn i turned to the right to look at him and he is waving his fist , fugging knob i thought didnt fancy getting knocked off so dropped into first and fugged off momenttarily on the back wheel , lol , if i had been indicating left could of understood it but i was on my side of the white line indicating right just cause there was a gap almost biggernuff for the car he thought he would try and get in it and as it ment him hitting the kerb he thought it was my fault, The more i ride on the roads the less i want to the more i ride on the track the more i want to, roads are just getting so dangerous!!
