Really shocked today at some of the riding i have seen, had to make a couple of runs in and out of town on the bike and in the van. At one stage a Range rover indicated to move into the middle lane from the fast lane on the M4 and 2 bikes where filtering behind me, as i slowed to let him move over they dived up his inside - You where VERY FUCKING LUCKY as Bike V’s range rover = Funeral and he was dam close to knocking the second biker off and it was not his fault.
Then I’m going down chiswick and a bus tries to force me over when over taking me, and lucky for the stupid biker coming up my inside i checked my mirror before hammering the horn to stop the bus hitting me!! you nearly got squashed and most drivers would have panicked when the bus came towards them.
The roads are slippery, the light is bad as the sun is low, slow down, give way to cars and traffic or you will come off worse and do not sneak up the inside, if you do you should make sure your flashing lights or using horns!!
Rix I feel your pain!
Goingup Euston road at 7pm and a bus litrally pushed me over a whole lane and into a traffic island (Luckily I saw it coming before he actually hit me as it didnt seem to be stopping) after about 10secs of me holding the horn in he decided to change into the bus lane and floor it! ARGH!
Road rage went through the roof.
I tried keeping up with him but I couldnt, He was in a bus lane with plenty of bikes behind. I was sat in traffic!
Its probably a good thing he didnt stop.
And…
This morning I have noticed there are some very arrogent bikers out lately.
If people move out your way, SAY THANKS!
manners do not cost a thing and it really f*cks me off when I go out my way to clear a space for a motorcle/s and I dont even get a nod of the head… Maybe its just me…
