Nearly bagged a couple

[varminter]

Heading south down Old Taupo road intending to turn up into Sunset road in the cage. Flick on indicator, start pulling into the right hand turn lane (bit dodgy, there's another turn just before the lights, Pukaki st I think) guy pulls out of said street on a trail bike, hoons across the road in front of me heading the wrong way up the road, I, a bit stunned, follow him with my eye's, the wife goes 'Eaghhh' (that's what it sounded like) as his mate, also a complete fucking arsehole, does the same, I hit the anchors and the car stopped within a foot of him. Aforementioned fuckhead then follws his mate up the wrong way. Some people don't deserve to live.

I simply wouldnt have stopped.
Been a few times, if I was in a car I wouldnt have stopped.

Yup, even motorcyclists get pissed off with other motorcyclists - with good reason!

No wonder then that car-only motorists have a poor opinion of many of us.

No choice really. Auto reaction, just hit the brake without thinking. Besides, I'm betting no insurance on the bikes so bit of a lose, lose scenario.

Just in case; we drive on the left here.

Joking.. Damn non-cagers!
