Bloody embarrassing!

[RE5Guy]

The Rimutakas, great riding road aren't they? Except I just got stuck behind 5 Harley riders (yes I was in the car - couldn't help it this time) from half way up the Wellington side till outside of Featherston. These guys were going so slow that there was a que of cars (5 by the time we got to the bottom) behind them!

I was embarrassed to be a motorcyclist!

Look guys, it is fine that you were riding at a speed that you felt comfortable at, but hey, how about a little consideration for others. You had plenty of opportunity to let faster traffic through but you continued at your snail pace.

There were 5 of you. Two regos I noted were WNHOG and HOGWN. I would welcome these gentlemen's (and the other 3 for that matter) comments.

cheers

You've heard the song: "Ride to the conditions, on a Hog reduce your speed".

Guy who owns a RE5 is embarrassed. Probably a first! :-)

Even Suzuki are embarrassed to admit they built them ...

I think you'll find that they were the two Americans over here for the HOG rally we lent bikes to. They're being shown around by one of our locals...and I bet they were spooked by the hill!

Still should've moved over though of course!

Harley rider using ad hominom attacks because somebody dared to make disparaging comments about his precious corporate cult of choice?

Not a first.

How fast were they going?

I thought it was about some slow guys holding up traffic? Where does the "corporate cult" issue come in?

Pot and kettle...?

RF turns up defending HDs pretty much any time something even slightly negative about them is said.

It was a pretty light hearted jab in reply to what looked like a light hearted jab. Nothing to get your gruts in a bunch over.

[Jizah]

Probably just giving all the slow car drivers a taste of their own medicine!

[YellowDog]

It's pretty annoying when you get held up by any other road users.

You'd expect experienced bikers to be more considerate.

Still, you're perfectly right, of course - how dare those wankers on those piece of shit corporate tractors dare to criticise someone else's ride, eh...?
