I followed a couple of Bib's on bikes for about 10 miles along a quiet M27 at about 7:45 last night. They were travelling at approx 75mph and eventually came across a guy cruising down the middle lane. One went past and pulled into the inside lane, the other sat behind with an indicator on for several seconds until he was spotted and the numpty moved to the left. The Bib pulled alongside, made some hand signals to the driver pointing out which lane he should be in and carried on his way.

The car driver seemed to wet himself at this point and pulled onto the hard shoulder as the bikes cruised on. He didn't quite stop and rejoined the motorway when it dawned on him he wasn't being stopped. Hilarious!

Good to see them educating

I take it that is the bike you ride. I had a test ride on one and thought it was a good bike, if a little heavy. More useful than the 1999 R1 I test rode as well ( eeeugh ). R1 engine in thunderace body seems to work well

Yep...good story Thunderace...

It's so annoying though that numpties have to be reminded of the most simple of things on the roads...

MUPPETS!

I take it you rub your hands with delight when you see a chav in the middle lane with foglights on

Open hunting season begins for St
