That and find your own style that works, I think bikers have to be a bit more agressive than cagers to get noticed, but not so much that its taking needless risk/pissing off the law. Its a balance but theres no reason you can't have fun! Especially leaving agressive drivers in their fast cars behind in the queue as I quietly filter to the front without fuss... And then end up getting on the motorway before they have even made a dent in the traffic obscenity that is aucklands bridge onramps at 4pm

I had to laugh yesterday, one of the guys from our private parking thingee ran to his Audi RS, didn't give it time to warm up, then screeched out of the building. I warmed up scoot, pulled on my lid and gloves, then readjusted my back protector, then pulled my gloves and lid off, answered the phone, chatted for a few minutes, then got myself sorted, and on my way. Audi RS had made it about 400 meters down Parnell road - I gave him a cheery wave as I rolled by... $10,000 Gixer vs $290,000 Audi... No contest.

I understand this trip completely. Everytime I go through a license stage I find myself trying to ride defensively and within legal boundaries, It lasts about long enough for the ink on the new license to dry.

Then I get some kiddy in a subbie or grandad in a jag cut me off, lane change into me or some other general stupidity and the old agressive IR comes roaring back (Anyone who's ridden with me can share the war stories).

Rubber side down and lets do it to them before they do it to us.
