Stupid guy i work with..
 

just came in saying how he knocked a motorcyclist off his bike..... at first i was asking him what happened, thinking maybe it was a genuine bad luck kinda accident, but then he proceeded to tell me how he was sitting in traffic, wanted to turn right a little way up the road, so indicated, pulled out and wham, a poor biker gets the side of his car in his face :( the guy was alright apparently, just rather irritated, quite understandably. but it doesnt end there unfortunatly, the guy i work with then proceeded to get wound up with the biker and swore at him numerous times for being an idiot, the (police ended up being called etc.......) but i told the guy i work with he's a bit of an idiot, and he's the kinda guy bikers have to watch out for (stupid people)...

its just the first time i've ever really heard about a bike accident from the other side of things, when the person that causes it is someone i know, being very stupid.

so watch out for a short fat kiwi bloke when your riding to work guys! :shock:

:toss:

Re: Stupid guy i work with..
 

Head on, or was the biker overtaking a line of stationary traffic?

Either way, your Antipodean colleague is a :toss: er.

:evil:

the guy was just travelling down the side of the traffic, the bloke in the car just clipped the poor buggers wheel apparently.... it wasnt bad as in no one was hurt, but i told the guy he's really gotta be more careful, if the guy had been going faster or whatever he could have killed him....

the guy was apparently complaining cos the bike was new, and his new boots had been mangled which he wasnt happy about either...... the kiwi bloke said.. and i quote "i could get you those boots from a charity shop for a fiver!"....... :roll: some people....

Maybe you could sorta accidentally divulge his email and we could kinda advise him of the error of his ways? :wink:


.

hehehe good idea jonboy.


na, he's a nice chap, i've known him for a few years and he's a good guy, but he is known to be stupid about certain things.... road safety being one of them! i had a word with him and he seems to understand now that the next guy might not be so lucky, i think he'll be more careful because of it... i hope!

If you want to frighten him a bit, send him the link to the BigApe and Sincs threads/pictures................

Oh............. can you ask him to get me a pair of Sidi Black Rain Evos from the charity shop for the fiver he mentioned? I'll pay postage, of course :thumbsup:

quite appalling really :toss:

Hohbein, just tell you colleague that a group of really rough SVers :evil:
may turn up and break his legs :crutches: . Tell him we eat Hells Angels
for breakfast so we got kinda bored recently, looking for something to do.
