Jez, that sounds horrible!

It wasn't a great deal of fun, no. Very frightening at the time. Afterwards, I was left with an unrideable bike, and a three mile walk before I could get a taxi the rest of the way home.

I was able to borrow a phone and call the police, a couple of minutes after it all happened. Top tip - if you're going to drive like a pillock don't have an easily memorable registration number (which I've subsequently discovered is up for sale on eBay). I'm waiting for the police to come a take a statement - sometime next week, I guess.

My sympathies

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Always have your camera phone at the ready.I remember taking a picture of that single deckers number plate when he passed me too close.I know it wound him up.

A mate of mine just pulls out his phone and pretends to take a picture just to wind them up, I don't know if he's got a camera phone yet

LOL, I do that too!!

My sympathies Jez, for your incident and the pointless interpretation of events ^.

When the Police come to make a statement he will have to make his mind up then...I think he hit me ...I might have hit him.

It wasn't a queensbury's rules boxing match, it was a scuffle on the road. Unfortunately I'm not blessed with an eidetic memory and 20-20 hindsite, so I'll just have to go on the available evidence. I'm sore on one side just above my waist - perhaps I was hit, perhaps it's just lugging the bike on my shoulder for an hour, perhaps both. Two knuckles on my right hand are sore - perhaps from the mirror, perhaps I clipped him on the jaw, perhaps both.

At the end of the day, someone passed him to close he clipped his wing mirror and they had a bit of a scrap.

Silly me. How could I have been so wrong! The scales have fallen. He was just having a laugh.

**** off.

From this it is obvious what happened. Calm down mate, no need to get abusive.

Hardly surprising Lee. A lot of your posts show a remarkable lack of empathy. Either that or you're just one of these people that has to swim against the tide. I suspect the latter.

 

[Twenty Inch]

I don't often get abusive on this forum, but I have to say that Lee is one of the most objectionable, pointless, scum-sucking trolls I've ever come across.

He's posted 1571 posts since Sept 2008. Nearly 400 a month, about 13 a day, and most of them simply to wind other people up. What a cock.

Ignore list from now on.

I did it to a tit in a 108 and he was mighty keen for the lights to go to green

Come on people, time to stop throwing your toys out of the cot.

 

[magnatom]

Come out with it then Lee. Stop your bull. What do you really think? Your one for the slightly ambiguous comments (that is what winds folk up by the way). What do you really think of Jez's incident. Are you suggesting that Jez was at fault here? Are you suggesting that that he isn't telling the truth? Go on Lee, lay your cards on the table, let us know what you really think.

 

[hackbike 666]

Yes lee is a wind up but I have been on worse boards than this.

Actually with Jez's incident I can relate and sometimes I wish I had the bottle to stand up to these pr1cks sometimes.

In layman's terms terms,wind-up.

Aye, but in this instance he is obviously winding someone up who has been through a nasty incident. That's just not on in my book.

 

[col]

Whether mag's line was right or wrong can only come down to opinion. He's entitled to use whichever part of his side of the road that he wants, and the discussion can only be about the justification for doing so.

What is wrong without doubt, and only col seems to be disagreeing, is the decision of the driver in cutting him up.

I think your baiting paul,iv never dissagreed about the overtake being anything other than bad,where did you get this idea?But then i should be used to your baiting,as you hate people dissagreeing with you too dont you.
