Unwelcome antics on my part...

[Drew]

Without detracting from the sad losses near Geraldine, I have to say that there are still a few of us out there who bring these tragedies upon themselves and by doing so tar us all with the same brush. Bex and I, accompanied by some biking friends witnessed a display of testosterone fuelled "circus tricks" along the Wairarapa back roads near Gladstone this afternoon. By that I mean
black Hornet - pops a half-mile, standing on pegs wheelie and rides behind and alongside us on the wrong side of the road as if to say "aren't I clever?"
Answer: Very probably, but you have no consideration for the safety of others using the road. So piss off and practise your stunts elsewhere!

Sorry, not really the right thread to vent that but, clever and skillful as it may be, when you see these sort of antics on a public road it begs the question...why?

No consideration??WTF you were doin fairly excessive speeds two up ya friggin hypocrit!

I was making sure to stay well clear of yourself and fellow rider, the half mile antics you speak of had clear road for twice the distance with no other traffic AT ALL!!!

To be clear it wasn't practice, I've done enough of it to know when it's cool, and when it's dumb.

To some up... if I was testosterone driven in my antics, what's your fuckin excuse for doin 160ks with a pillion when I did the first wheelie and couldn't get past you? You double standard types give me the shits!!!

I'm guessing that he wasn't on one wheel on the wrong side of the road trying to be the man...

only half mile? were you having an off day? Oh and the correct response would have been "fuck that looked cool"

[Clivoris]

Circus tricks dude?
I hope you have a current circus guild membership. I am a descendent of two generations of clowns (no shit) and the clowns don't like non-union labour getting the attention. Best you pay some dues or we send around the fat bearded lady to give you a nasty rash.

How long is a piece of string ?

Safety is in the eye of the beholder ?

My limit with the wife on the back is 160kph - is this crazy ?

I trust Drew's wheelies more than some other people's antics....

[Two Smoker]

Wheelies are neither big nor clever....


Speed Kills...

[R6_kid:Me]

He's just jealous that despite his extra 400cc he can't get it up to impress the missus so he just does his thing really fast and hopes it does the trick.

[Tony & Carolyn]

What a f..king joke!!!! First you have a winge in an inapropriate thread and then as drew has pointed out you were'nt exactly obeying the posted speed limit while two up...... How do i know this you say? cause i went passed you just before the aledged mono. You own a sports bike and ride at those speeds two up then bitch an moan when someone goes by HTFU!!!!!

[Conquiztador]

One is doing 160 two up and other is doing wheelie on wrong side of road.

And you guys are arguing about who was in the right and who was in the wrong?

Perhaps time to get a dose of reality check.

[TerminalAddict]

Wheelies are not clever, especially when the rider is a decade or so older than me, on my hornet, and I can't do them

*cough* warr *cough*

as you were with your arguing folks

[merv]

I keep reminding you guys of that fellah driving the nice colourful car with the SLOWDN number plate. Are you guys trying to attract his attention through this forum or what?

We used to like the nice clear Wairarapa roads.

Hmmmm.... I definately think that there's just too much of a pissing contest going on here....common sense surely does prevail on those dangerous roads.

Exactly, Obviously jealous of Drew's style.

+1

you guys need to get your heads out of your ass'es. Seriously you both lose the rights to 'dis others when riding like that.

I was using it as an example, I have no problem with the speed she was doing, was perfectly safe on a big straight road.
