Can I pigeon-hole types of motorcyclists? Yeah sure can

Because they had a feeling when they got him an icecream earlier and they can tell shit will go down when he gets icecream and eats the left side first.

You're most likely imagining it, we see and remember what we want and how we want.

Also, don't get gobbies from angry dogs.

Probably pigeon holing several situations for each rider, based more so on the riders road presence. If one of the imagined situations comes true, he feels as though he could tell the future.

I'm sort of the same, every vehicle I imagine several situations, one where they do as they should, and several situations where they fuck up or drive erratically. Chances are, for the majority of vehicles, what they do, I would have predicted it.... Just I predicted several situation for each person.

You are disturbed.

Deeply disturbed

I think you should send that analysis to ACC so that they can set up the appropriate categories for user pays. Perhaps ask them for a grant to research it further. Must be worth a $30 rise in fees.

Pigeon hole this driver

Yep, you guess right.

I'm sure we all pigeonhole or stereotype someone on exterior first impressions. Attitude of a vehicle, whether it be car/bike/truck gives away the intent of its operator, at least that's how I operate. While one could argue some types do favour certain types of riding apparel, I'd class that as merely circumstantial evidence.

I ride a Hayabusa, have a white helmet, black one piece leathers and two piece fabric hi-viz type getup. I guess you would pigeonhole me depending on what I was wearing on the day rather than my riding style at the brief moment you observed me?

I ride a Bandit, I have a black helmet and I ride in black leathers with a soft jerkin over the top ... You don't want to watch my riding ... (A couple of weekends ago when I blasted passed a bike, two cars and an artic truck at some speed that would have seen me walking if the popo had seen .. a mate said "that's the craziest thing I've ever seen you do ..." )

So Ok if you want to pidgeonhole me, then who am I to argue ...

Cassina will be along shortly to tell you that this kind of "mind-reading" is impossible.

Today I was followed by a guy in one of those huge Audi Q7's. He pulled out from an intersection behind me, refused to tailgate and then slowly dropped back until we got into the open road section with the passing lane on the first hill. As I chopped down to try and keep my momentum up, with my trailer, he dropped further back and made no attempt to pass. I was furious by this stage. How dare he refuse to conform to my expectations!
