Default RANT AGAINST BIKERs

Is it me or the WRX, why do all the riders seem to have the urge to showoff their bike every single time I line up with them on the lights.

It pisses me off when they start to do the one stand wheelie and get away with pulling off without being book for dangerous and reckless driving.

I felt the urge to run them over if no one else on the scene.


Sorry for the angst

Rant of my day

Get a good launch on your WRX and nose ahead up to 50kph in first gear. Then give the a wheel a good wiggle to scare the hell out of them.

when ever a motorbike pushes their way through to the front and im at the front, i just take off quick because they dont expect cars to be next to them, it pisses me off when they cut straight in front cause they think the cars are far behind. i will also try and make the gap too small to get past too!! haha

i do recall an occasion where i tried to race one off lights, he changed lanes to get past the car in his lane, and he must have missed a gear.... scary couple of seconds i can assure you.

I can’t wait for them to fall off from their ride and pull out next to them with box of first aid bandages with "tool of the year" badge on top

I've got a zx6r and the wrx so in the middle here. Sometimes it may look like they're racing you...but really they are not. Bikes do take off farking quick and u need to have a decent car to keep up with them (ignore the 250cc bikes, they are shit). 600cc to 1000cc sports bikes do 9s 1/4 out of factory.

I split lanes when i ride my bike, freeway or at the lights because it is legal. Well not technically but police dont pull us over for that. However i dont condone any wheelies or anything like that. If I split the lanes and im between the cars, quite often I let them take off first....just in case somebody is crossing the intersection on the red light, i have a protection this way.

It might be hard to believe but taking off quickly and establishing a gap between cars behind you actually makes the riding safer!!! drivers change lanes without watching out for bikes. Any bike instructor will tell you this, take off quickly but legally. Trying to scare someone while on their bike by pretending to be changing lanes etc. is farking stupid!!! you might kill someone because of that...how would you feel? grow up guys, if you wanna race - kwinnana motorplex.

That was my rant

You to. I'm tempted to weld a plate over my mail box ( front and back ) with all mail to be delivered to PO box no *%^ etc printed on it.

Man junk mail pisses me. And the random addressed stuff from people who you haven't dealt with for 5 years that still seem to want to send you $*%^ that you really don't need.

Learning to ride at the moment. Don't want to look like a hoon so taking it fairly easy taking off but the instructor is on my case to get going as quick as I can.

Get out in front of everyone else and make some space for yourself then you deal with the clowns around you as they catch you rather than be stuck right in the middle of them all.
