Undertaking Cagers

[Kickaha]

Maybe it's just a form of pay back.
Maybe some car drivers are just becoming as obnoxious as a shit load of bike riders.Every lane splitting rider seems to think undertaking is fine when it's them doing it.Put the boot on the other foot an listen to the hypocrites whinge.
Sounds funny as fuck to me.

Trouble is, many bikers here don't drive cars, and far too many of them are unbelievably one-eyed when it comes to road courtesy. The attitude seems to be "I'll agressively invade your road space, but don't you dare do it to me".

You two are missing the point, when a motorcyclist does it because of their always far superior road skills they are safe as houses whereas everyone on these forums knows that car drivers can't drive for crap so everyones life is in danger when they perform the same action

I think undertaking cage's would fall into two catagories.

First the ones that think that because they see bikes splitting, it means its ok to do the same back.

Second the idiots that are trying to prove something. (my car is soo fast i can undertake this bike up ahead at 57kmp/h

Heh....I was waiting at a round-about here in Wanganui, looking to my right waiting for an opening, as soon as one presented itself I moved into the round-about, Only to find the car that had ben qued behind behind me had driven up had entered at the same time, driven along side me, and was in the process of driving across my path, All this on a single lane round-about, damn car was about 2 inches away from me, and Im doin my best to not be hit or hit the round-about (which is raised a good foot in the air, hitting it would have caused the front wheel to deflect back into the car i was trying to avoid)

I ended up smacking the drivers window and unloading a torrent of abuse.

which roundabout?

i was undertaken last night on dublin street....fucker got right up my exhaust so i flashed my brake light a few times and moved to the center line...so that if he did decide to pass he would not be in my lane. he kept getting closer so i slowed down to about 45-50k [was doing 55k cos he pushed my speed up.] 7pm last night it was pouring with rain, and i didnt have my goggles, so couldnt see shit. the fucker undertook me....drove alongside for a about a block then pulled over and stopped. as i went by i flicked the bird, but he didnt see. wish id taken out his mirror or something.

Dublin St round-about, I was approching it from the town/river side, and heading round and then over the bridge.

'Superior road skill'?? Mwahahahah, a vast amount of motorbike riders I've seen have all the self-preservation instincts of a lemming!!!! mWAHAHAHAHA!!!

Same with most drivers too!!

the difference is that if a bike rider bins it, they generally learn from the experience, or get humiliated enough on KB, that they'll get 'better'

you mean Aucklandattitude has creaped to Hamilton

JAFAS - Just another f Auckland Suburb - Hamilton

I have taken to 'warming the tires' weaving if I see a possible nominee for undertaking. Made a few back off, and one just stop because he would have gone into a parked car.

sweet.. I never manage to do anything to the cage in question.. I just raise my hand, as to say WTF..

When you get really fast at roundabouts, you can often undertake/overtake cages just as the roundabout starts.. - but only if they have indicated where they are going.. you don't want to be accelerating, and then they go where you don't expect..

You have people that actualy go the way they indicate on a roundabout up there ! here in the Bay its still a guess

Went over the rail bridge heading home one day when i was undertaken by a guy in a van, right opposite the aramoho pub,was just about to give him some verbal when i noticed the mongrel mob patch,best to let that one go i thought.

likely a wise choice...but the hells angels clubhouse is right around the corner from there. if he had decided to give you shit you coulda parked up outside. likely would have run off crying, lmfao.

That could be like jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire.I,m not sure the hells angles would be overly keen on a jap cruiser parked outside their clubhouse either.

in all honesty....ive never seen any action at that place. most exciting thing ive ever seen was a coupla cars on the grass verge. wasnt present the days they got raided though.
