Exactly, little sods. If they spent less time breaking people's noses with helmets and more time with the classics....
It's difficult to keep a cool head when your welfare is involved I don't think I could cope doing the same route day in day out as I did today down the M11 and round the M25.
try doing it on 3rd party only cos youve had 2 bikes stolen and you cant get insured (and therefore a job) otherwise (again, still no excuse)
Wow that sucks The car must have been very close to hit it ? I do the same commute most days and do have to watch out especially during school run times
Me personally? I got fully cut up and then a load of verbal off some shithouse (sat on his phone) who thought I wasn’t going to do anything about it or him. That’s on top of the daily grind which as the poster above said is quite something, the clipped bar ends from lorries that are too wide to stay in their own lane, the numerous mirrors I’ve had bashed to the point I don’t have them on my bike anymore, the white van mongs who seem to take great joy in blocking bikers off etc etc…all that with 3rd party only added up to a rather defensive and (at times) aggressive biker. I tell you what though, I got more empathy (not that I was looking for it) from both the magistrate and the plod than some people seem to be able to offer to a fellow biker clearly having a bad day. Bit sad really. Kind of makes me glad I’ve given him a bad name or whatever other bollocks he seems to think I’ve inflicted on him (or her).
Fwiw, wrong guess. StMarks has NOT contributed to this thread. Until now.! StM (currently enjoying some continental hospitality) :???: Please.......?

Then you shouldn't be riding a bike you thicko. Don't you know you need a university education to ride?
Wow some of these replies are stupid as hell but a few are awesome ..... it's down to the rider and him/herself to keep calm, plus you don't know how many dick heads have cut him up etc etc ... today I had 30 people pull out on myself and my "L" plate mate... Each one mouthing I have right of way .... Until they get tap on window and a proper education ... If you think getting wind up is pathetic you are obvious a car driver FIRST ....
It only takes a few WVM dicks to sour your day. The deliberate blocking the way is purely childish. And it's not drifing in lanes (5 -10 mph max for the outer lanes) it's a deffinite notablcble wheel turn. Now most drivers will give you quarter, it's just a small minded minority. Yes I did fold in a mirror on a fuckwards on the M25. Who though it clever to shut down the gap lane 2/3, But I spotted the wheel turn and sneaked up on lane 1/2 as he'd blocked himself in.
Nah it really means you don't drive a car, bus,lorry or ride a cycle....so you have a zero perspective on any other road users take on things. Or if you do then you are shite at it car and lorry driving rocks...motorbikes are antisocial pointless race machines that have no place on the road...like horses :roll:
