    Cool. I read your post the wrong way for some reason.

    i had a go at doing this, some dude slid into a roundabout in front of me.
    i was on the DRZ doing about 60 in the wet.
    i stopped just short of him, he wound down his window and was all shook up and started to apologise.
    i just said "ya learnt a lesson there eh"

    and rode off while he was starting to reply.....

    shit happens, once its happened, move on

    A while back at a round about there were two cages one cut the the other off... I was swearing and cursing at the cage who cut off the other cage... but I think the lady in the cage that got cut off got the wrong I idea and thought I was swearing and cursing at her cause she gave me the bird...

    oh there is no point to this story I just thought it was funny

    Well done for improving the relations! Unfortunately there is a cager on KB that goes around patronising motorcyclists. His name is Katman and he hates all things 2 wheeled. While he continues in his antagonising ways the war between cagers and bikers will sadly never end.
    In space, no one can smell your fart.

    He's a Scotsman living in Southland, so no; I'd say he dreams of sheep.

    As long as SMIDSY and Mirrorectomies exist. Or Shoes and Bovril.

    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    It's called common courtesy, even though it may not be that common.

    I love my GSXR. I'm such a boy...

    You don't actually have a sense of humour do you?

    You are funny. Have you sold that bike yet?
