Don't FU*KEN do it. Young Bro tells me that he nearly took out 2 bikes on the road to Dargaville this WE. The stupid fu*kers (the bikers that is) were cutting a blind corner:argh: If you do that don't blame the "cage" coming around the corner (on the rightside of the road) if he fu*ken kills you.

lol, yeh i prefered a bumpy ride over the grass to getting fucked up on the ripple strip... cutting blind corners leaves no options... go kill yourself some where else please and dont add to the bike death statistic :bash:

yup, well we lost another brother on his Ducati yesterday up the Old Pacific Hwy MtWhite (Syd-Aus) ... out of the corner and into the armco railing.. lost him at the scene.. another unfortunate WEEKEND RIDING death..
I wont make judgement or comment on the incident as there could have been variables to the cause of the accident... but none the less its a senseless loss of life for a w'end ride..
been there done that and seen it.. its never fun lookin after a brother and waitin on the ambo's, holding his hand while he gasps for breath...
beeing the fastest guy on the road just aint worth the trophy..
if i see a rider cornering like a tool i give'm my quiet opinion when we stop... not out of policing but concern... just ask them to imagine the phone call their family will recieve! usually tones it down a touch...

I hardly ever cut corners full stop, I was always told to think of the worst case scenario, so I imagine another "me" and that stops me being too stupid.
Was also in a car when a driver passed a car around a blind corner - we made him pull over and ripped his ear off.

If you can't see around a corner - don't risk it! This also includes passing on left hand sweepers - see idiots doing it all the time! Can.t see for shit and, there they are, out on the other side of the road, going for it!
Wankers!

Its not just the rider thats at risk, if you ride into a heavy family car on the open road they'll lose control of the vehicle and who knows what could happen.
I never ride to the point I'll cross the centreline, its just stupid.
