Promoting bikes on radio this morning.

[sAsLEX]

I have always moved aside to help give bikes room, and the only problem I ever had with bikes going to the front of the que was that I wished it was me, i would think "lucky bastards!" Had a Harley or 2 sneek up on me and give me a hell of a fright as they flew past but never been a concern.

Old Coldkiwi flew past me whilst I was severly hung over in the passenger seat of a car in the CBD, put the shits up me that for sure, kinda wished I wasn't sufferring from alcohol posioning and was out riding!

[acewheelie]

I zink by opening zur car door they attempt to kill me. I ride from now on wid de lever action shotgun in the saddlebag. (Arnie style)

Zen I can kill dem in self defence....

Never listen to the rock because of the 2 brain cells shared by the dj's. And the same bloody songs day in, day out. Oh, wait... play us another ad...

[imdying]

Hopefully she'll be awoken tonight, only to have her abdomen stabbed 15 times.

Oooo now thats what I call kinky

[quickbuck]

What made me laugh about the whole thing was the number of callers who were going to get on a bike to save money of fuel. Well they will, but I figure they are going to end up pooring their money somewhere else.

[El Dopa]

Didn't something similar happen in the US recently? The DJ made some inflammatory anti-bike remarks, and several days later was forced to apologise and carry out some sort of penance after a co-ordinated letter/e-mail campaign by bikers in the US.

Perhaps 5,000 e-mails to whatever their addy is might make her shut the fuck up?

[betti]

clarkson made a worse crack in the Uk, about stringing a wire across the road outside his house to take bikers out, I guess you are gonna get the mindless minority takin it seriously, but what happened to any publicity is good publicity?.
The piece on bikin on the rock was mostly pro bikin and that's gotta be a good thing ain't it?!

[Quartida]

Its funny before I started riding I too used to get annoyed with bike filtering and lane splitting etc...

It's all about point-of-view, isn't it? I remember getting annoyed before I got into biking...I think it's just a natural reaction for Auckland drivers because so many cages try to get to the front of the queue that they can't help but pass their feelings on to bikes too.

There's just something about it that makes people annoyed. I don't think there's any way to get around it without making cars illegal.



Now there's an idea.

[R6_kid:Me]

Thing is that 'filtering' to the front of the queue at the lights is 100% legal as long as you are between two lanes heading in the same direction.

If someone opened their door on me I would soon be finding out just how well Quasi's 'rage' streetfighter gloves go through glass windows or alternately through side view mirrors.

[Quartida]

I think I'm more scared of someone half-opening their door and me going into it. A head-on with a window pane doesn't strike me as nearly so terrifying as a head-on with the corner of a door. Just the thought of it gives me the willies.

[Insanity_rules]

More cager prejudice, just what we need. I wish public figures like radio DJ's would watch what they say on air. Some people ie the lunatic fringe could take her comments to heart.

[avgas]

I hate Lea and her damn glad bags

[Drum]

So whats the email address?
