I usually keep my nose out of other peoples affairs, I really do... but if you were the fella riding from Beaconsfield to Hazlemere last night at approx. 2010hrs on 67 plate retro looking naked litre bike (sorry I didn't want to get close to the fella so not entirely sure what he was riding) you seriously need to get some experience away from curbs, hedges, on coming traffic, CORNERS! I have never witnessed riding as bad, you are going to get seriously hurt...

Literally, everything you did / didn't do was bad and I'm surprised you made it up that 6 miles of road...

My guess is you turned 50, managed to get through the bike test without having much previous experience (good for you, nowt wrong with that) and then spanked £15k on a top bike and riding gear... or you've been riding years but had 12 pints in you!

If it was you, and you know you're struggling and you're local to me, I'll happily go for a few rides out with you to help point you in the right direction, or get yerself booked on a Californian SBK school or something! drop me a pm...

Could be 90% of the riders on here. You'll have to narrow it down a bit.

I don't remember being on that particular route but I was really, really pissed when I left the pub!

Not me either but I do live just where you saw this happen, in Tyler's Green

If you see a dirty white CBR650 give us a wave, I'll try not to get too excited and bounce off the kerb/hedge 😀

Are you sure he wasn't on a Harley?

They all look like that going down the road even if you can ride silly
