maybe shoulda put this on the "what gets my goat"
Heres the link
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-33755093For a start i will say that it is sad that anyone has died on the roads whether they are riding a bike or driving a car. After all many bikers also drive cars and many car drivers also ride bikes.
I think we all know how much "extra" fun can be had from biking but that is down to the individual and in my experience there are probably more absolute loons out there driving cars than riding bikes...
...riding a bike requires a tad extra brain power and resources that the pond scum of this little island wouldnt quite be able to master......plus the pond scum cant fit 10 mates, 2 dogs and a kilo of smack on a motorbike can they........
But 3 people died in Wales alone yesterday while out on their bikes and im really pissed off with this report from the BBC for the following reasons:-
- A 53 year old biker collided with a BMW......eh...hang on a second...surely that's a bit premature to be deciding who collided with who here....the poor bugger aint even cold yet and the bbc have decided who hit who....surely it was an impact and ok ill confess that i'm guessing here that the biker didnt smack straight into a stationary car although i suppose if a car pulls out on you and then slams on the brakes then technically they will then be stationary so you could then say that the bike hit the car........but how dare they be privvy or even guess on those facts so soon after the incident without a thorough accident investigation report...........so anyway if both vehicles were moving though then it gets a bit more complicated doesnt it so why are they putting across such an anti biker report still.
- One rider was riding a "high powered" Yamaha motorbike.......WTF!!!!......the incident could have happened at 30mph FFS!!!.....what relevance does power have to this story........what about the vague "BMW" car that was involved......last time i checked BMW werent exactly under powering their cars.....when was the last time you were cut up by a 1.1 litre BMW or straight bit getawayedyouaintgettingpassedme'd by a 1.3 litre N/A BMW.....never....because they are all pretty high powered.....yet already the BBC have decided that the power of the bike was to blame.....bunch of FUNTS!!!!
then there is a highly educational video about how so called "born again bikers" within the category of the poor bugger that has died.......and how they are basically more dangerous according to statistics.........oy oy oy...stop the foccing bus.....who said that this guy was born again????....for a start he aint foccin jesus!!!.....and for seconds...just because he is 53 doesnt mean that he is a so called born again biker does it......maybe he has been riding since he was 12 and hasnt actually stopped once....maybe he is a proffesional foccing TT rider for all they know that hasnt had a single year away from bikes......again how dare they imply all this shit.
ill openly admit that im a twat sometimes......last couple of days i was a twat the odd time and i feel bad about it and im gonna learn by it......but im probably just as much a twat in the car....if i went the same roads for the same miles...just for fun.....gonna be sunny...cant wait to do 500 miles in the car through wales just for the crack......which i wouldnt....but thats not the point is it...but anyway it isnt the bike that makes me a twat.
same thing happened last year.........100 car crashes in the brecons.....hardly a mention.....every one that involved a bike....highly publicised with an anti bike bias.
just does my tits in thats all.
