Tonight I hate motorcyclists. Near miss with one today, he or she was overtaking a lorry on a sharp bend, double solid white lines, closing speed about 100mph, if I had been towing the monstrosity/been half asleep/the verge had a drop, chances are there would be one less person on the planet and I'd be extremely upset.
Motorcyclists are twats! Some motorcyclists are twats. Mind you... Rog I am a motorcyclist.. some motorcyclists are twats. Some are not.

I think Rog was just highlighting how some people's thinking turns them to be judgemental. Stuff happens that you don't like > something similar happens > you seek other opinions > others have had the same experience > a group of people form all talking about the same thing > people involved form judgemental opinions. If you understand and accept that this happens then you change or break the cycle. Politicians and much of the press rely on the cycle continuing.

Some motorcyclists are twats. Mind you... Rog I am a motorcyclist.. some motorcyclists are twats. Some are not. I too am a (currently lapsed) motorcyclist. The problem motorcyclists face is there are now far more twats than non twats on two wheels. The days of earning your stripes and progressing through the capacity classes are long gone - blame direct access for that. Motorcycles are also predominantly toys rather than transport, they are also a damn sight quicker than they really need to be - remember the 125bhp limit gentlemen's agreement among manufacturers for UK sold bikes? You could hardly call a mk1 'blade, FZR1000 EXUP or an oil cooled GSXR 1100 slow, even today! The adventure Sport stuff is also staggeringly quick compared to an original Africa Twin, TDM 850 or the old R G/S GS BMW Couple that to the race to the bottom among all road users and it's small wonder most people hold the idiot tarmac terrorist in complete contempt. Funny to think most of them will use a car primarily and a bike for pleasure...

Its "dissociation" not "disassociation"
Bad spellers. All the same.

Wandered over The Worms Head again today...what gets me and I itch to comment is the idiots vying for Darwin Award who attempt the crossing in the most stupid shoes out and then try and help their townie kids who...yep are also wearing silly shoes.Fortunately as I decided to wade through retreating tide I managed over to the far end and back to middle part before I met any numpty tourists... Roll on winter then its all mine......like the canals tourists don't come.. We were at Filey yesterday and the same idiots were going out to the headland as the tide was coming in!! I dont get it maybe they like riding in RNLI lifeboats?

Maybe its city townie dwellers who really do not realise that Ma Nature is in control There is no charge for rescue by RNLI is there?..maybe its on their 'to do' list. Kids are just waiting to be able to comment on me being rescued but I always allow max time, though guess the terrain is tad challenging so one never knows.

I always give to the lifeboats and hope never to have to call them.
The Muppets patty and Peter are talking about are a pain in the arse!

As I have posted on here, I have been towed in by a lifeboat, their was no need of it really, but the owner was that seasick he couldnt go on!! However if he had heeded what I said to him he wouldnt have even been seasick, its far better to avoid a problem than battle through heavy seas to save yourself at the end

Ah... the Judging Others thread will do for this. "The comments below have not been moderated." - white British women fighting in the road "The comments below have been moderated in advance." - anything to do with 'Asians' So predictable with the Daily Mail. Anyway... "she was in a hurry the chip shop was down to its last gross of pies" "They will both have to go and get their hair done again now!" "Fat one won" "The incident brought one carriageway of the A5123 in Northampton to a standstill yesterday after drivers were forced to witness the violent brawl." www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6107999/Two-mothers-choke-holds-spectacular-road-rage-brawl.html#reader-comments
