    The wind creates all sorts of problems and I would prefer other vehicules kept right the F away from me but the twats still tail gate while I'm weaving all over the road.I think they just don't have much of a self preservation clue going on.If i'm on a bike and have the sort of problem you describe I just pull over an let em go.When I'm driving my 4x4 and see a bike having issues with the wind I give em' plenty of room,apart from cbr250rr riders that is.I'd like to run them little fuckers over every time
    Hey??

    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Some of the real old hands will remember the dirty tricks that some nameless bikers used in times past.I believe the best practice is pull over and wait, but Im told that if you have a good bit of power and road at your disposal then paintballs can be quite effective! lol
