Sorry folks but l agree with Graham, theres a surprising number of bikers that think they are immortal and immune to the laws of the road ! Yes we all speed, we all take the odd risk, l mean l commute through traffic everyday and l can tell you its scary. But many bikers put themselves into trouble unecessarily, read the road wrong and accelerate into trouble. Many a time l ve had crazy bikers cut in front of me because they fail to get past the car in front of me in an effort to stay with their mate who earlier overtook the car on the wrong side of the road on the approach to a bend ! Think of yourself coming the other way then you would be scared to see this idiot on your side of the road coming towards you. Just one of many examples of crazy riding that at times makes me feel ashamed to being a biker, the point here is this yes Graham pulled out after seeing the guys coming towards him, they were equally at fault for accelerating on the approach to vehicles meeting their road from the left whilst already in a 40mph zone.
Still got the Hornet ;-)
