Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..

And one guy got taken out at the junction on the Brixham Road near Gliddons garage. Looked like a blue Bandit or similar. Plenty of bikers riding like dicks and plenty of blind drivers.
Seems the relative calm of lockdown has ended.....

Re: First bimble of the spring
You could be right - I was more concerned with trying to avoid the twat in front of me who suddenly slowed to talk to the coppers

Re: First bimble of the spring
Just did a 30 min shake down ride and all seem ok with my SD, really nice to be out again.
Saw a few others bikers out there too, most probably commuting.
Out tomorrow afternoon for a proper ride and to meet a mate. We both have compatible intercoms so I shouldn't need to get too close.

Re: First bimble of the spring
Plenty of dickish behaviour out there so ride safe and be defensive and look out for drivers, riders, cyclists, pedestrians, kids and animals. Weekend will be pain full. Stay safe guys and keep it cool...

I'd be watching out for tractors, bit of haymaking going on. And, they eat babies in Crediton.billinom8s wrote: ↑May 14th, '20, 18:13 I have to go to crediton tomorrow, should I be scared not only me the locals but also the traffic?

Re: First bimble of the spring
Hoping to get out tomorrow if i can might head up to North Devon. just take it slow as on a friends bike and after the news today think the police might be keeping a special eye for motorbikes.
