Today was a good day.

[Blackshear]

True story, no sympathy needed.

Wake up with intense hayfever. I HATE THOSE GODDAMN PINE TREE DOWN ESKDALE!:angry:
So yeah anyway. I left work around 3 because it just wasn't safe for me to be doing shit around powertools and sharp metal, so I rode home (odd how the smell of 98 clears the eyes and nose:innocent:).

Bike has a flat tyre. Rawr.
Push ol' Bobbie 20m up the road to some tyre shop next to work, AND I'M OFF!

The road home was pretty calm, stuck between a car doing a solid 45, and a mufti.

Coasting down Verbena (2nd to last road till home), some dirty filthy motherfucking road worker next to his truck thinks it's a fucking funny idea to throw a decent sprocket sized piece of wood at me. It only just missed, lucky, or I'd have been mega pissed and rolled up my sleeves. Now who the fuck goes and does this? Just to make sure it wasn't an accident, I turned around and come back up again.

You fucking guessed it, Mr. Fuckbag throws another to impress his brethren.
I stop maybe 30m from where they're standing, hop off and flip up my visor.

"Hey yo guys, what was the deal with that?"
'Oh a. Oh bro, you were speeding so uh.'
"Think it was a pretty smart move, eh?"

At this point I realize I'm shorter than them, white, only 18 with a nose on fire and puffy eyes.

Jesus H, Man. Jesus H.

If I roll past tomorrow and they do it again, what would you suggest I do?

If it wasn't for the fact I was monumentally brassed the bloomin'eck off, I'd have let it slip. (Gotta take all the bad Karma from those younger days).

If it is a road-worker then they'll be on a contract with the council.
Get in touch with the council and the person in charge of Civil Works.

Let them know the details. They have been known to take this shit quite seriously and 'fuckbag' may very well lose his job/contract.

[wbks]

Quit being such a pussy and go nuts at them. If you can't then get a few mates or just throw a brick at them as you go past. But seriously, being white shouldn't have even a slight mention in this story. I'm sick of everyone assuming that black guys are tough which is why they act the way they do ( a lot of them anyway). Prove them wrong. EDIT: I'd follow the advice of the buy above me. Don't even wait until next time. Hopefully you won't see that guy again. Maybe even call the cops as that seems to me to be assault.

Ok. I just went up the road, but they'd gone. Was gonna get their company name. I'll give it a go tomorrow you guys, cheers for that.

RE: Being a pussy.

I'm sure I'd have fun cracking one head in, but when they roam in groups, it's a shitload harder by yourself. It's like a giant cue. You hit one, the line just gets longer.

RE: Black.

See above.

"The only thing gangs can prove, is to never underestimate stupidity in large numbers."

[wbks]

Haha good points. Smoked one of them when I was like 12 only to have a group of large 15 y/os snot me...I should have learned lol. Just try and find their number and report them next time you see them I guess.

Hopefully they're still set up by about 4:45 when I get home tomorrow. If they're not, by crikey. Someone will have to play a sickie.

Lol, what stories?


*Deep deep southerner voice* Love you guys :3 :hug:

No different to throwing rocks at cars from bridges.
A hunk of wood hitting you on a motorbike can kill you easily.

Go to the cops and report the incident mate. Next time maybe you or another rider won't be so lucky :(

Makes me angry this sort of thing. It's real serious stuff.
