first off I am talking about the knob on a KTM bike this morning.

i was in the right hand lane and wanted to be in the left, checked my mirrors, ktm rider 2 cars back going through the middle of 2 lanes, so stuck my signal on right away, and slowly moved to the left as the car i was pulling in front of was a learner (we are all doing about 20 - 25 at this point in both lanes).

by the time i was across and saying thanks to the learner for letting me in, the ktm rider is beside me revving his bike and shouting (i think he had a full face helmet on) he then swerves at me, which is not really intimidating in any car, even less when I am in the land rover.

anyway he proceeds to drive behind me round the roundabout, indicating with his hand i am a dead man, and then on the next bit of road he is beside me in the left hand turn lane, pointing at my car.

now i know it never helped as i was laughing at him, but the guy on the Yamaha sports bike behind was shaking his head at him, and when we were both at the next lights said 'that bloke was mental' which I agreed with smile

thing is, i gave him 2 - 3 car lengths notice, and signalled and never stopped him changing lanes, so I am not sure what he took such exception to.

anyway if by a slim chance you read this (i doubt you can smile) get a life smile
