I still don’t think you bikers are even understanding what I’m on about, which is probably part of the problem.
There is no problem except for the one in your head. laugh

I suggest you get a dash cam and beep your horn a bit, that'll show 'em.
That means you end up with two people not being polite rather than one...

Doh that's what this thread is about spin

Ease up, hold back and this thread would be empty..

If all the bikers didn't filter and behaved the same and occupied the same space as a car, do you think your commute would be shorter, longer or the same?

Now that's a good point and any rational thinking person will know the correct answer, but I wonder how the bike haters will answer it?
Maybe they will choose to ignore it, which is probably their best option. biggrin

On a speed awareness course i was on in reply to a car driver that moaned about motorbikes filtering the policeman talking to us replied " we actively encourage bikes filtering ".
Theres a certain amount of car drivers that simply get butt hurt when you do it.

There's probably more bike likers and bikes that take their turn?

I don't think it was the police filming it, was it?
Something must have been going on before that though for them to be filming anyway.

Isn’t that exactly the same question for the bikers to answer?

I believe there is a holiday site just up from it
There is, less than a mile away from Centreparcs. Sherwood Forest is very near too.

Ok.

As a biker, if bikes didn't filter, my commute would be a hell of a lot longer.
As a driver, if bikes didn't filter, my commute would be a hell of a lot longer.

How would my commute be longer if the bike didn’t filter, when the bike’s behind me? smile

For the duration of the T junction right turn we’re talking about - fully accept the bike will come past me (probably on a corner, on double white lines, etc.) 2 minutes later.

The ones in front of you wouldn't be filtering either.

If a bike in front of me queues in line and turns right - how is that slower (for me) than the bike filtering forward and turning right?

The bike saves queuing time by filtering but I don’t save time by the bike filtering, and the time for the bike to turn right is the same.
