    Hmm, yeah that sure did backfire,

    to those that are sincerely worried above, I am sorry to disappoint you but I'm not a loan shark, finance company or a shop owner. I see the huge upset this might cause to you guys above and a thousand wads of candyfloss that may fall from the sky higgery diggery waaaaaaah ... crybabies

    Yeah mate the lil VTR is neat for the meantime, and I'm stoked with it, just wish it was a little bit louder.

    Yeah Ehab, I agree, it is fun on a bike competing with all the cars out there, but I might leave those passing cars on blind left hand double yellow lined corners to those opportunist riders out there

    Hmm, hopefully we get a turnout on Sunday, if not, there will be just a few

    Um, yeah maybe. Reading the other posts, possibly, but possibly not. Perhaps more scooter drivers to overtake?, but I just had a lady nearly take me out pulling out of a street in her Audi on her cell phone straight after work in Newmarket. I stand out like a sore thumb because I have a yellow vest on, and she nearly stacked me and my VTR, so close, bout a foot in it before she slammed her brakes on and I went past.

    I guess I am just sick of having to dodge dumb driver every couple of minutes. Yes I choose to commute on the bike. But these people piss me off. And maybe, just maybe, if they were on bikes, and just as careless as they were in a car, they would stack themselves, and one less fuckwit to deal with on the road. (Sorry, so cold, so cold).

    Maybe I am a bad person Nish

    nah i agree entirely with that; i had one girl pull out of a side street one morning infront of me without looking

    the fuckwit-est part was that she couldn't actually see thru her windows as she had parked outside and never wiped her windows. she didn't know anything of the 15m stoppie i pulled untill i told her, and advised her that next time she pull into traffic she should atleast accelerate to more than 20kph

    i agree wit ehab in saying that dan is a good c**t to suggest ways for us to avoid cageers who most of the time are reallly not paying attention while driving..i think we need to change the term cagers to day dreamers...and i can back up dan on not being a yard owner but i dunno abt the loan shark thing..hermm..
    For those of you whose use the fast lane on motorways and only do a 100km/hr, can you pls use the middle lane, some of us like to ride at 105km/hr thank you very much.

    Can cars ride bikes?

    We should all get these cars inside our cars, they sound smaller and more fuel economical.


    In all seriousness though, I like the fact that bikes are more exclusive. Cars tend to draw in the idiots that are simply into grabbing attention by being loud and putting vast sums of money into bling, and luckily harley's pick up the other's that don't want a car. Keeps the motorcycling breed pure.

    all you need to do is roll past a boy racer car and look down at their gfs.
    then laugh when they boost past you,
    thenpass them without changing from your cruze.
