[NTECUK]

People who do 50 in a NSL. Then when you are in a 30 and obeying the posted re pass you doing twice the limit

Commonly referred to around here as the "40mph club" they will do 40 EVERYWHERE!!

In that case you are to be congratulated for getting it all together again by 8am because by then you were excellent company.....

Nope on a red bandit.
And yes you did get the finger as I passed you again on the other side of the 30.
Get a bus pass

I can just about manage 2 nights without any sleep, and a 165 mile rideout as TEC in the middle. That c0ck at 5am wasn't welcome either.

Especially on a dual carriageway, in the overtaking lane.

Maybe they've been riding on the 272.

the locals have been complaining about bikers "riding slowly through the villages and then opening it up on the NSL bits"...

Obviously they'd prefer it the other way around

Well if you will put your keys in the bowl you can't complain about whoever picks them out

Two-hats on any type of bike (this one was a BMW) who are super confident, completely ignore the speed limits everywhere and don't care if you're inconvenienced/taken by surprise as long as they are having a good time. When you blast past just an inch from people with no warning it scares the crap out of them, me included, and I had seen you about 5 seconds before you were on top of my back wheel only because your stupid accessory lights were absolutely blinding in my mirrors. So to recap, you drive like an idiot, giving the rest of us a bad name, you scream up behind us making everyone nervous, you blast by only just missing everyone in some pathetic macho posturing way and you wonder why other road users take avoiding action and make hand gestures at you. Utter knob.
