40mph 200 yard long chain of Harley riding w*nkers

[hornetrider]

Stuck behind a bunch of these ignorant fking open face lid tassle jacketed skull and cross bones badged middle aged sweaty fking s today. For about 15 miles heading up to Builth.

Absolute fking s.

I was in my car, small straight I overtook the tail end charlie who had a small gap to the rest unlike the others. Two bends later he re-overtook and took station on the centre line. Absolute fking ttting knob jockey.

After about 25 minutes dawdling finally hit a long straight with no opposing traffic and managed a full bore insano overtake to do the lot of the ignorant pricks.

s. You should have seen the queue of traffic behind them.

of cause you stopped to inform them of your huge displeasure

It's times like that you need a 600hp V8.

Not to do a Mad Max plough through, but more to rocket past at the first opportunity.

I used to ride one, love some of the bikes a major soft spot.... but the whole riding in big groups thing is so dull I cannot fathom the enjoyment they get out of it. Tried it once, never again, ended up on a Triumph STR before concluding my biking career.

It's not just Harleys. Many times I've been overtaken in the Peak District, then held up by the clowns when I'm in a hurry.

What's wrong with these bikers?

you were overtaken in the first place, so you were holding up the bikes in that case. You are exactly the same.

So you dawdle along getting overtaken when you're in a hurry? Or are you going to claim that all bikers hold you up in the twisty bits, as per the standard PH driving God cliche.

Oh and all Harleys ridden in groups are tossers. Why do they have to do 40mph in NSLs? It's bad enough with all the lycraists out there riding 8 abreast in their fat boy pelatons.

You really wouldn't want to be anywhere near Aviemore this weekend then, thousands of them there, just heading over to have a look at some middle aged gay pirates......

Too true, but to sum up all the whinging threads of late occurs when one lot of road users acts in a manner that is totally selfish and doesn't respect everyone else. Too fast, too slow, arrogant, aggressive etc - all the same thing.

Glad that's sorted then.

I'm guessing they will travelling to Thunder in the Glens, this weekend every year. I avoid that area for the weekend.

Massive overdose of leather, facial hair and beer bellies. Not a pretty site and once you've heard one Harley they all sound the same.

No it was the 'No Bull' rally in Builth. As I went through the town there was a tractor towing a farm trailer full of leather waistcoat wearing tattoo'd badged tossers coming the other way.
