The Coro loop ride yesterday 3rd June

[smoky]

Terminal was two up – over taking everyone, and teaching us all how to ride.
I have to admit I couldn’t ride that well 2 up, I can't keep up when he’s 1 up.
He gets my respect.

But some riders thought he was insane, so I thought I’d wind him up a bit with a quick vote. Is he insane, or gets your respect.

[Colapop]

Wasn't there. Don't know him. Therefore can't vote...

I suppose, if he was being a dick...

Need we recall the Peak Rd 2-up double-fatal of a couple years back? Hard riding is all great fun until it all goes horribly wrong.

Ive seen guys riding with their missus on the back like complete fuck wits... they need a hiding for such behaviour... how ever if it was a mate that knew of the dangers, then so be it... either way doesn't surprise me on the loop, why not kill two on one bike instead of wasting 2 bikes.

Won't vote however as I dont know the bloody clown, his pillion and riding.

ps: for all I know having ridden with some Aucklanders the main bunch may have been riding at there slooooow speed and Term cruising at a average south Is pace

I followed terminal through parts of the loop on a Spada 250 and sat on his tail even though I've only been riding for a month. On the straights I got smoked (no kidding) but giving it a squirt (even with your wife on the back) isn't insane, its why we ride. Through the the twistes he was smooth and so controlled (did not here his passanger complain once). Very good rider and I learnt heaps just by following his lines. Cheers for a sweet ride.

He's an up-and-coming version of Warr if that helps?

[Waylander]

TA knows what he's doing guys and more than likely wasn't riding as hard as he could.

I only said - Terminal was two up – over taking everyone, and teaching us all how to ride, I never talked about "Hard riding" or about "riding with their missus on the back like complete fuck wits"

I knew this thread would bring out all the knockers, bashers and hypocrites

and I am generalising you guys get up set so easy... see my last couple of lines in the post I think you are refering to

Same here. Just a general comment too.

[Toaster]

Just don't complain when someone does get hurt and we hear 'what a tragedy'.

[Warr]

Yes just what we need another wind-up thread.

Wasnt there sadly. But since we are all about safe road riding, a thread about what your own response could be to someone using blocking techniques on the open road may be more enlightning
And in this case I'm NOT refering to TA

I get that all the time, but i would not start a poll about it to expose the exceptional riders to criticism/praise for how they ride...TDHSKIP says it best in his post, and is what i would get/take from riding with the likes of TA

Then why did you post it, clot.

People complain about the crap that goes on here, it's because of threads like this.
