lol how long can we hold this against you??? *Hmmmm*Originally Posted by 3L4NS1R
good to be back tonight. and um.
wasn't my fault the coppa turned up. I didn't give him time or place. He must've known bout it already.
And you know what sucks about a $150 dollar fine?
The fact that I have to pay $150 within the next month.
fat bikeless git

Good luck to accident (cain) on his full license test on tuesday.

cheers to mr police (didnt catch your name) man joing us tonight. some interesting stuff to learn and see.
that full lock stuff is not as easy as you made it look mate.
How about we try and do full lock turns next week ?
Scooter boy

Or U-turns in a single car park space?

I think he ment 2 car parks - coz he said the turning circle of the beemer is 4,something...which is about 2 car parks
good thing to try next week
thinks it's real.
nah completely possible in one carpark. Whatcha gotta do is pull a front wheel stand, while giving it a good twist in the torso. This will flick you around 180 degrees, and wah la your turning circle is within the single carpark. Think he was going to show us this till someone suggested the pub.

Following distance rule (from police viewpoint)
50km/h --- 5 car lenghts
60km/h --- 6 car lenghts
70km/h --- 7 car lenghts
80km/h --- 8 car lenghts
90km/h --- 9 car lenghts
100km/h ---10 car lenghts
That following distance rule has one problem in my opinion now that i think of it - if I have 5 car lenghts distance when doing 50km/h then the guy behind me who is only 1 car lenght startes tailgating me, and doing stupid shit around me. Hence more likely to do a dodgy overtaking and take me out in the meantime.
Another thing is that if you have a gap so big this means that people will keep pulling in front of you and keep coming in your lane if you are on the motorway shall we say. In following that same thory , it means that after every car has pullid in front of me I now need to readjust the following distance to the next equivivalent in car lenghts according to the speed we are travelling at. This in turn will mean that the guy who was tailgating me from before that gets even more agravated and even more likely to do stupid stuff.
Thats my theory anyway. I will give it a go over the next few days and see how many readons for mirror removal I will get from cagers.

I reckon although you should be wary of what the tailgating cagers might do, the reason you leave space in front of you is cos if you need to brake/dodge some crazy shit going on up ahead, you've increased the distance you have to slow down. Cager behind therefore has enough time to slam on the anchors while you are slowing down, reducing the chance of getting rear-ended. Make sense?

Wow, takes quite a jump to 1000km/h! Must have crazy fast reaction times!
I agree with the full lock turns next week, and maybe some tight fig 8's.
Next week is the night before my full licence test!!!! Aaaargh!
Good to meet Sammy, good to have some new people along.

there are things sometimes that work on paper but not in reality. I shall try the technique and see if I will feel any safer .I reckon although you should be wary of what the tailgating cagers might do, the reason you leave space in front of you is cos if you need to brake/dodge some crazy shit going on up ahead, you've increased the distance you have to slow down.

Yeah, that was the vid I was talking about. That bike cop is insanely good!
You can get hot grips for your bike, they're only a hundred bucks!
Everyone who I know who has them says they're the bee's knees.
