See this is what happens when your not there to see for your self, your now saying it`s not the wheely thats the problem it`s the over taking on bends which didn`t happen, just because i apexed a few bends using a racing line when it was safe to do so, you have blow it up to be something its not i`m not sorry for the way i rode because i was safe and had other road users in mind at all times, not that i need to justify my self to you.
bored now GSXR![]()
I think D is very restrained in his group riding, sensible and setting a good example. Group rides are a lot of fun but inherently more dangerous than riding alone or with a few mates you are comfortable with, knowing their style etc. ALL the large group rides I have been on have had some absolute fuckwits that obviously think they are the best. I never have a problem with anyone wanting to go faster/slower than me, that's personal choice, but you should still ride with respect to others. The Akaroa road is a great piece of tar, but there are far too many accidents and the cops are starting to hammer it. Although cops say speed is the issue, I don't believe it is, and if we just showed a bit of respect for others in our riding then the Ackers road can continue to be motorcycle heaven for us all. Are you aware that the local Ackers cop is wanting to set up a 'meeting' with motorcyclists to discuss the way that some are using that road?? If we want the cops to treat us fairly then let's ride that way. ( a bit off topic sorry)
Kind of why I shy away from group rides. If it's not somebody wanting to prove something that I really couldn't give a shit about, it's someone else, dangerously inexperienced, driving two foot off my arse.
I prefer to think 'You lot go on ahead and I'll just see you there'.
UMMMM... then you should have been on the ripple strip then, OHHH hang on man, thats only on a race track, you were on the road which has a different set of rules and for a good reason.
Do you race? I do, well I try anyway and I can tell you this 'race lines' dont work on the road and visa versa... however the basics can be sheared, but kept legal
nothing reguarding that was aimed at you, in fact the closet comment to that would have been the XJ passing a bike while the bike was passing a cage?
yeah, I can be a right dumb arse too
Now remember I did not make any coments till a couple of others did, IIRC you were the 1st... I was not making any personal cracks at LW like he has done with me (name calling) but letting those reading know we dont ride like that here... if thats how people want to ride then there are other groups to ride with... one being the group that called the rescue choper out that very same day.
So, Im not above saying sorry if any post on my behalf ofended anyone
welcome to KB LW and let me asure you it was an entrance like any other round here... its knowen as the KB way hehehe should seen the ribbing I got 5yrs ago![]()
cheers DD
(Definately Dodgy)
but...D...look man...you cant say that....you just cant say:
"rar rar rar doing dumb shit is stupid, 15 bajillion people die every day on the akaroa highway rar rar rar, cops get annoyed, people die, innocent people die......but its ok for me to do it"
I mean you're a grown man (mostly) you know what hypocrisy is.
lets say I was on that ride with you, and saw you over take a car on the back wheel.
we get to akaroa and I say "OI D YOU MAD FUCKER, YOU OVER TOOK ON THE BACK WHEEL IN A CORNER WITH YOUR COCK HANGING OUT, THAT'S NOT COOL DON'T EVER LET ME CATCH YOU DOING IT AGAIN OR YOU WONT RIDE WITH MY MOTORCYCLE CREW (who are the coolest and therefore you want to be seen riding with us) EVER AGAIN!!!"
and you're all like "oh...sorry dave, sorry man, look I got a bit carried away and it wont happen again, please forgive me"
and so I'm all like "that's ok D....now go get yourself an ice cream"
and then on the way home I over take a car on the back wheel.
how would that make you feel? you'd feel pretty annoyed that I'd just told you off for doing exactly that right? you'd think I was a jerk, risking my own life and the lives of others for the kicks.
and that's how we sometimes feel, because we have feelings too, deep emotional feelings.
Psychoanalysis of Dangerous....lol I said anal....
