To the guy that nearly wiped himself off the face of the planet by splitting dangerously... glad that you adjusted your lid to abuse the driver that nearly took you out,... feel for the kids, god knows what came out of your mouth, maybe next time remember defensive riding .... always expect the unexpected... I didn't see or hear you behind me... maybe cause I am loud enough for cars to hear me while I split carefully... but you are not! If you make it through the summer I will be surprised with your impressive riding skills. And the fact she didn't indicate didn't help... that is where the unexpected and defensive riding comes into account... didn't fancy picking you up off the tarmac, to say bugger there goes my ACC payments!

what, exactly is the point of these ambiguous self righteous 'to the rider who . . .' posts that are cropping up all the fucking time these days?

Yep it is the time of year :cool:

Today on the Auckland motorways was awful. They had to close it off for some nutter. That caused a backlog.

Probably to raise the fact to this person that they were riding like a cock.

But then she doesn't describe the bike or rider so it could be one of hundreds of bikes the split badly on the Auckland motorway, actually she doesn't even say where this was.

Maybe it's to make us all think if we have been riding like muppets then we need to stop and sort our shit out?

Yeah, like that's gonna work. Anyone who thinks "I gotta sort my shit out" because of a thread like this is already well on the way to sorting their shit out. Everyone else will think this doesn't apply to them. Even if it does.

It's a discussion forum, nobody is making you participate in this thread.

Heck, even if nobody replied, maybe Tink just needed to vent; an emotional response to what she saw.

Relax.

Join date 23rd October 2013, already such an opinion. Who exactly is having the "moan"?

You could choose just to ignore the thread. Who needs to "Get on with your life"?

Hey tt20 how about a few puns instead? And no, it's not about a "battle of wits", it's about having fun.

If you think about what you wrote you'd realise that if there was more concern for others we may be a less disengaged society. Are you the type of person who does not lend a stranger a hand if required, one of those who pass by as it's not your problem.

With the "Freedom of speech" we have now in NZ ... we can ALL say what we dam well like. (apparently)

BUT ... (apparently) we do NOT have the freedom to argue with their "Free Speech" ... that would be rude (apparently)

FJRider! You've been so "quiet" on here, I thought you'd left the country or something.

Anyway, down to business.

You (apparently) have the wrong idea of an argument, tigertim20 was asking a question.

I've been seeing a lot more riders taking chances with lane splitting that are just stupid. Splitting between fast moving traffic on the motorway (southern) is a daily occurance.
Splitting between 2 class 5 units that are travelling at 90+ kph has been observed by me as well & that's just in the last week or so. :crazy:

Well that make my day... the rider that who nearly killed himself... I am sure you will be slagging him/her when they are gone too! you might as well cut and paste that quote.


They crop up every year at about this time. ;)

GOOD

I am not sure what the word "grunted" means but I am sure google is my friend. It goes on and has done for many years. Angry is good but it is wasted energy. Posting in this forum is not going to lead to a change in behavior by any bike rider. See you in Wangas :)

Questioning someone's opinion is rude too ... and is often mistaken as argument.

No need to shout ... and we ALL make decisions during every ride we do, that may kill us if we (or others) get it wrong ...

Normally ones who take chances are squids. New too biking. Not had their falls. Doing ok in NZ. SA is already over 855 dead for December. Reason they call them squids (newbies) cause with their guts lying on the road it looks like a squid. I got cautious with both pain and losing friends.

Those that rely on their fellow man (and women) to always do the right thing at the right time ... and be in the right place at the right time ... and not make a stupid decision at the wrong time (for you) ... May have a short life.

The only certainty in life is that we will all die.

Well here it's like most places. Ride like you invisible. SA with those Hiace taxis I had to change my route. They cutting me off to do emergency stops to pick up commuters, me smashing side mirrors. Was getting a bit out of hand. Considering most taxi drivers were armed it was all full on.
