    Riiiite, what exactly is there to learn from that that? Don't run in front of cars? Even my cat knows that one.

    Given that you're an authority on being a big mouth with no skill (crashed on any roundabouts recently?), you'd be the one to know

    At least he's not the sort of person who drops other people in the shit (letting other people take the rap) for their retarded actions (pulling wheelies in heavy traffic). So basically, what I'm saying is, he's always going to be one up on your worthless behind

    Ok two for starters:

    1) Checking the opposite junction just before starting off - even though he had checked this previously it is a good reminder not to just assume that it is clear because it was 10 seconds ago.

    2) Only physical injury seems to be the knee. They only place where protective gear wasn't worn.

    I've passed my full but in no way do I consider myself to be an experienced rider. That's why I always check this type of thread to see if there is anything new I can learn from.

    And before you say these points are no brainers - I'm talking about the view point of new riders.
    When people make a mistake and cock up and post on here with as much detail as they can plus an indication of what they think did wrong - then new riders can read them and learn from it - without having to ask questions and possibly look foolish.

    Other experirenced riders correcting the OP on their assumptions of what went wrong also adds benefits. Taking the piss out of the OP does not add to the thread.

    Get fucked, I'm a well classier rider than you will ever be. Atleast I went drifting sidewards 40m spectacularly before hitting it. Any as for your other comments they are as misdirected as they are innacurate, just ask the cops faggot face.

    Fuck there's some awesome shit on KB at present. Just the perfect mixture of smash and burn, troll-insult-take-offence-inadvertently-threaten. Simply any possible combination will do! Any action, inadvertant or otherwise is ripe for a bashing!

    Thats KB for ya innit.

    Feels just like home dunnit!!

    Maybe its the time of year? Beginning of February is flame war time? What say we put a posse together and pit city against city? Fark we could seriously leave some blood, skin, and if we're lucky some bone and hair on the road ay!

    Stupid fucking childish bikers. Grow the fuck up. You are bigger than that, or maybe not.

    Actually I reckon the people who post on here they've had a whoopsie, probably have more guts than those who mouth off at them for coming off!

    Good on ya for being honest ...... gals and guys

    My guess it is more about the coolness factor. Falling off makes you one of the big boys you see.

    That is absolutely CRAP! I've never had an off, been riding for 12+ years, and I ride with the "big boys", so clearly am one. You do not need to voice an off to fall into a category like that.

    Yes, I agree with you. What I mean is, from their perspective "more bins wins" mentality.

    I came off in a bad way and I was not proud of it at all. I had to humbly apologise to all the people who love me. I could have made their life hell.
