    F'ken cage drivers.

    Work mate almost got tee-boned by a cage not stopping at a stop sign yesterday arvo. The classic "I didn't see you" affair. Now though the rider was on a GN250 at the time, his quick reactions managed to get the bike around the car ending the grass verge and suffering a bit of bruising with minor damage to the bike.

    Now he has something to fill his "near miss" form with.

    Take care out there.

    Hes lucky he walked away from it. The young fella on his scooter down the road from Anza didnt fear so well when the cage hit him. 15 years old and going to St Peters high school.
    We all gotta be real carefull out there. Seems that maybe Mr plod should be watching the cage drivers with there insistent lack of vision instead of the no tolerence on motor cycle speed at the moment. then they will cut the road toll for us bikers
