    I don’t lane split either! Or sneak though traffic, speed, do wheeles past schools, swipe at cars that get within range, wind up kids on school busses or in the back of vans, use offensive language, drink alcohol.
    I'm a saint... Well I would be if I wasn’t a compulsive liar.

    The drivers that do try to squeeze me out wind up having a tinted visor watching them through their window for the duration of the fazing.
    Fun to watch them squirm!
    We all have our little obsessions...

    Yeah, *cough* It's a bit hard to filter with two 40 liter bags on.
    The cage driver was another one of those "you've marked my pristine car" types, when it was full of dents and scratches. He was going to trade it and thought that one more scuff would hurt his trade in deal. I offered to buff the mark out but apparently a panel beater had to do it. Never heard from him again.

    I was going down the left side of a double lane that gose past a round about then merges into one lane one morning. No worries alls is well i get to the place where the merge is pull up just behind a car getting ready to merge in then going up the right hand side.
    This d ii cc kk decides that come hell or high water i am not going to get in if he can do anything about it ??? WTF WHY ? once i,m in the lane i would just move to the right and start passing so i,m not holding any one up or taking any ones place.

    Any ways i looked at the guy went 5 cars infront of him and had a great day.

    Most people are fine and some move over when they see me, just the odd dork out there

    I find trying to split in slow traffic and at lights Bike always V's Car...
    If car hits bike car always win
    If bike hits car, car always wins meanwhile your left trying to pick up ya bike ...
    so smoke em! don't give them the option to take me on! Straight line drag we always win ... until you hit another red light!

    On the motorway I'm sure I attract the blockers??? that loud Neptune exhaust does help to split them as my horn is crap.

    I travel from Red Beach to Mount wellington and back again every day. Almost every day I get some idiot in a cage try to block me from lane splitting it normally slows me down for about 30 seconds, when I do go past them I give them a wave as if they let me past. I don't often see they expressions but I am sure it pisses them off. :spudwave: (hopefully anyway)
    On the same trip I probably get a lot more cages move out of my way and let me through. I find most cages are ok and accept they are in traffik and good luck to those who don't have to be. US
    Its all about having fun
