I've ridden with 'that' guy, not that actual one, but he was as bad,

[QUOTE 5359341, member: 9609"]he seemed utterly clueless, road position couldn't be worse then he nearly takes the cyclist down with his crap riding

wheres the other thread ?[/QUOTE]
I can't remember, it was a post someone made about descending fast that got my reply.

Yes the motorcyclist in the second video hasn't a clue but the cyclist takes perfect lines.

I once found myself in a peloton of about 50 huge motorbikes in South Africa, I cruised along in a stationary pool of hot air that smelled of oil and exhaust fumes feeling a bit under-dressed compared to all the bikers.

I thought it was memories of the shop???
(both scanned)

I bought 2 Marin MTBs from there ('89 Bear Valley, & a '89 Pine Mountain), and a 1990 Orbit America

My 'Pine' in front of it, & me at 'The Plough' (Warmfield) circa 1990

I call at http://www.squires-cafe.co.uk/index.asp if I'm out that way, & on dry weekends/bank holidays, there can be 500 (or so) bikes there, with plenty entering/leaving


Plus, as a few of the local area riders know, there's a hell of a lot treat the area as an 'open road' TT circuit
Piles of plastic (fairings), & sadly flowers, decorate many corners


At other times, I've often been the only 2-wheeler there (wet winter weekdays)
All 'fair weather bikers'

Sadly how good they think they are is not matched by how good they actually are, time & a place for everything at times I have done silly speeds on the bikes, but I tended to keep most of it for trackdays.
