Fireworks, or more to the point rockets, or more to the point focing massive things that tossers send up without a care in the world where the foc the massive stick and hard plastic shell is going to fall ON MY CAR focing put a dent in the wing, anything over the size of a candy floss stick should be banned, these things are about 1/4 inch thick wood and 4 foot long. I also had one stuck in sharp halls gutter. We get it in october with de-wali and it seems that the bigger bang you can get means you are more respected in "your society" because it shows that you can afford the biggest.
When you spend a good 45 minutes cleaning and lubing your chain then cleaning and polishing your wheels only for the chain oil to get thrown every foccing where the next time you ride it 😲😭
Something like this? haha
Oh............ and brake pedal dabbers
Fricking police that don't do their job. On my way home last night a police car was waiting in the lane next to me at traffic light controled junction and a car comming from the right clearly jumped a red light (at high speed I should add) and the police did nothing, when I gave the officer a gesture to say 'well! go after them then' I just got a look as if to say what's your problem

Plods shift patterns used to be 2pm till 10pm,10pm till 6am,6am till 2pm. Only know as used to maintain phone systems for the Met.Changeover times were the best times for all sorts of crimes especially forecourt petrol theft.

The car in front of me shot through a red but the police sitting waiting at the adjoining lights blue'd and two'd it straight after her. So amused was I at this that I laughed rather loud as I rode past her where she'd been pulled up. Next thing I know is I'm getting pulled by the ol bill at the next set of lights. I think they thought I was a young inbred as I was on my old 125 smoker. Asked what I was laughing at, replying that I thought it amusing that an idiot had actually been pulled for a change. I was asked to remove my helmet and their demeanour totally changed when they saw I was, lets say, more mature. Asked if it was my bike and if I was insured.....no checks, let me on my way.
. so they pulled you over for laughing I didn't realise laughing was a crime
I can go one better, my hopefully soon to be ex mrs. Many years ago we were doing the school run. Having dropped my boy off we were carrying onto Chester for shopping. Anyway a tractor was holding back traffic so on a straight stretch of road I floored it (40 limit) so maybe hit 50?(it was an old Astra). Out steps Plod and waves me down(he was a sargent). Produces his book and was about to write me. I explained I was only accelerating to get past the tractor. Well he says you are behind it again. My Mrs pipes up, go on book him!!!!!! I told him not to over take here as I know the police are here at this time of the morning, so throw the book at him. The guy looks at me and puts the book away and says I will let you off with a caution this time sir, take it easy eh!!He had a look on his face that said it all really, I am married to a twat like that as well, and she is going to make your life hell all day, punishment enough me thinks.

They said she was acting very suspiciously because they'd followed her (in an unmarked car) for several miles and she hadn't exceeded the speed limit!She then proceeded to reprimand them for stopping her when "people like my husband and his mates are riding at ridiculous speeds and you don't pull them over!"
What you did was not against the law as you were overtaking, unless you continued at 50 in a 40 after you cleared the slower vehicle/obstruction.
