Merlin Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Some clowns on a local motoring forum have posted some bait for those of us who pedal... Yes, I know it's a bunch of tossers looking for a quick laugh, but their attitude really hacks me off, and I thought I'd put a few words in. Perhaps you'd like to see who we share the roads with, and why so many of us get knocked down... Btw, my user name there is Mikroz. Link.
Canaris Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 another reason that mtbking is becoming more popular, and commuting to work includes a bit of pavement hopping
gummibear Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 That is a bunch of idiots with small nuts who want to drive big cars but can't afford to on car guard pay. I see they are watching the Hub postings.WindblownPE2009-08-31 02:57:33
GFishy Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Actually just show you the mentality of some people. "I is like to be driving my bakkie down the road anywhere I can, cause I can, cause I did paid my license also" If you go out and intentionally hit a cyclist on the road you should go to jail. If the cyclist was in the wrong or not. If that was your intention - no tolorance.
Nish4 Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 You are right, not worth a comment.Nish42009-08-31 03:10:39
Merlin Posted August 31, 2009 Author Posted August 31, 2009 ...don't generalize, Nish4. I drive a WIDE variety of vehicles, chief amongst which is a heavily-modified 'classic' (in terms of performance). Some of us like engines and pedals.
Canaris Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 It is nice of them to at least warn us that they are fishing. Where are all the roadies who have to fight them for road? Where are the hubbers that cannot take a joke? (especially a sick one like this?) To what extent are they accurate and what extent are they only embellishing on our behaviour on the road? We should maybe reflect on what is being said here. For every guy that is out to have fun at our expense there are two that actually think that what they are saying is 100% on target. I have had to listen to guys that think that a little irritation is just cause for murder, mallicious damage to property and assault. I have had to handle people that believe that because you disagree with them on a technical point, that you actually HATE them. There are some very weird and strange people out there.
gummibear Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 You are right' date=' not worth a comment.[/quote'] Do you really think that they drive those cars? I also drive a heavilly tuned car and enjoy cycling.
Danger Dassie Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Not even worth bothering. Reading those posts just shows 'internet balls' same attitude is carried over when they drive. Just proves my point, if you cycle like an arsehole, then you'll drive like one and vice versa. It's sad and pathetic that folk like joke like that, how many of them are family people I wonder.
Dirt*girl™ Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 wow....sheesh, some psycho drivers out there...and they have a forum!

I wonder If this oke has realised he is the only one with a Big/loud car a beard and a large porn collection in his School.. He still refers to Playground as if it was yesterday.

splat Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 I find a lot of siily things funny, but I am not sure what is funny about attempting to kill people. Anyway, our posts here are just fuelling more silly remarks there.
Nancy Drew Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Not even worth trying to debate. Their intellect is directly proportional to the size of their manlihood... that's why they need to belong to car forums and make up their masculinity by driving big cars and threatening the lives of those that are more vulnerable on the roads. Sheesh, as if society isn't aggressive enough. Clearly none of them have lost a loved one in a hit and run.
