WTF??? Have you been at the drugs again, Col. Mags is now putting other people in danger is he??? I despair.... ;)

He did yes,its too easy to blame others for being impatient when your holding them up knowingly ,and knowing the reaction that could possibly follow.But it seems that doesnt matter,as he has a right to be there doesnt he.

From the position of your hand when the car passed you, there is no way that your palm was in full contact with the window. I was just using the 'stop' footage to show the bend in your wrist and to compare it with the 47-48 second mark. Your fingertips may have touched the car when it was passing but not full contact with your palm!


He must have damn hefty fingers then from the sound of that contact.... I don't remember them looking like that when I met him last Sept though.

As my old granny used to say, some people would start a fight in an empty room ;)

There you go,your trying to get a reaction to your calling,im sure thats one of the classic descriptions for trolls:biggrin:
So mag,do you think putting other peoples safety at risk is worth holding primary for when there really is no need?:biggrin:

The ignore facility is the internet forum's equivalent of a 5 year old putting their fingers in the ears, dancing round and singing "la la la la la la la! and is used by posters who have the mentality of 5 year olds

I know that I just don't see the point of putting people on ignore.If it continues I reckon some people won't see any other posts.:biggrin:

Can you kind people *please* stop responding to Col, or at least don't bloody quote him. Eventually I'm going to ignore both the trolls and the troll feeders, but since some of the responders are moderators or admins, I can't unless I leave the forum.

This?

Oh bugger...I do believe Col lives within a short distance of me...I was warned last year....

TBH...All Mags does is post his view of close passes..and they are close...so what... it's good evidence.....

I get close passes, but I'll also pass a car like this.... if there is limited room...erm !!!

At least the driver has seen Mags.....but it's way too close........and he was passed pretty slowly - so I'd be tempted to pop a rattle on the roof.....

Close passes don't bother me day to day, but I've been on the receiving end of total 'don't look or look don't see' twice recently.... one hit, very lucky, one didn't..(but potentially worse).

Only my instincts prevented it being worse on both occasions...., but on the second one, had he have hit, I'd have been under a car coming the other way...I'd anticipated this... and felt..oh sh1t....straight into crash mode....ease up, go loose expect impact.....let go.................................it didn't.....phew.......

Had this guy hung about I'd have more than slapped his car.... my language was enough to kill a 'prossie' at point blank....

Mags has a cam, he'll show you some moments. My only comments is he doesn't ride aggressively at all, OK, positions himself well but.....

Get yourself well fast dude...get well fit..... get a faster bike and take the road..... ditch the hi viz yellow stuff and ride like someone posessed - I get less hastle this way.... only problem is folk don't think you can ride fast and pull out....doh.....

To all........chin up, chill out..stop having a dig over crap...sheesh......a fair few of us have been on the hard end of this sh1t recently - I thought I'd got away with it until just before Xmas...... yeh right....

Itching to ride....temps are up..I'm ready to roll again tomorrow...bring it on !!!!
