Darn sarf, car drivers are utterly shit and bikers are almost to a man highly skilled and competent. But having been near Ayr for about two weeks I've noticed that the cagers are better than in the South of England, but every single biker I've seen has been riding very poorly, and often dangerously (in fact I've had to do an emergency stop as I went around a blind left hander to find a gentleman wheelying on my side of the road).

I assume that this isn't the case for most Scottish bikers. Any idea why I've noticed this? Statistical anomaly?

No, trust me on this, the car drivers are every bit as bad as the ones down south. Probably worse, I'd wager.
