    On road sermon!

    I just come back from Outram and on the way back, had an idiot fail to give way and ..........well with sphincter puckered, managed to avoid a nasty incident.
    The thing that really got my heckles up was the fact I had my son on the back [he's fine and was unaware of the close shave].
    Needless to say, I thought this clown needed some roadside "driver education" for two reasons.....
    1. Was to vent, and more importantly,
    2. To raise the awearness of motorcycles and the need to obey road signage.

    So I tailed this airhead and caught up with them at the lights in Mosgiel, tapped on their window and proceeded to deliver my Sunday Sermon.

    Why am I writing this???.......simply to encourage others to do the same if it ever happens to you. I'm not advocating road rage or for you to do something you don't feel comfortable or safe doing but to merely educate other road users of the importance obeying the road rules and to be that bit more aware of motorcycles.
    By doing this, you may just have an influence on how the driver conducts themselves in the future and make our roads that bit safer.
    Fuck with Yoda, Die you will!!

    Changing my dangerous ways
    riding round early this afternoon riding along like a moron again lane splitting in 50 zones and all that stupid crap speeding and so on go round this car and they gave me evils....oh watever look at something else... i think to myself get up to some lights... stopped at the lights....nailed it redlining every gear thinking i am god. flicking it through corners at just plain stupid speeds.

    then i dunno wtf it was but i just looked behind had miles behind me thought time to change my ways...i have no idea what bought about this change.....stomped on the anchors down to just hovering on 50 kph... and rode round 50 kph zones at 50 the whole day yes if traffic was doing 55 or so i hovered there but not the usual 90-110+ lane splitting speeds.....

    i am sure this is a resolve to myself i need to and am going to keep before i either loose my license or kill myself or somebody else because of my dangerous ways....

    thank you to all the people that had told me to just chill and stop playing ghostrider...

    i'm sure i will be much better off for it....

    and ive had my kicks of being a retard on the roads.... it's time to grow up be an adult and respect that the roads are for others too....

    so i am resolving to ride sensibly from now on mainly not speeding but also stopping the weaving in and out of lanes riding down the road standing on my seat....riding down the road with both feet slung out to the same side of the bike doing the can can......

    time to grow up....and i did...all afternoon...

    and i plan to keep doing this....somethings triggered me

    i was always so angry with myself that i rode the way i did and had no self control or patience on the roads...

    now ive woken up and plan to keep it that way...

    i know your probably all going to poke shit at me about this thread go ahead i know what ive been doing up until now was stupid and down right dangerous ....

    Cheers: carver

    Is it april 1st already Carver?

    But if you're actually serious then good on ya. You don't have to ride around on the open road like a nana but it sure is good to keep the speed down in built up area's and be considerate to other road users.

    Till some fucked up P head turns his car into a weapon and rams you for tapping on said window.

    Let it go mate - you are not going to change stupid people's behavior with a sermon, regardless. They will remain stupid.

    Yeah, I'm with Big Dave on this one! Some boy-racer type or bad-ass gangster could be behind the wheel... Best to take a deep breath and carry on, IMO.
