Default Re: Worst rider i have seen!! How about you?

On the flip side to this woman and an oposite opinion :
I was very confidant on my first rides on the 650, second time i had it maxed out in 6th redlining getting the most out of it. very confidant in the corners.
to be honest i really thought i was the Sh!z, i had the bike leant right over and everything thinking i was rossi. then i crash . . then i crash again . . .then i crash again . . . then i realise i am not big and im not clever and i cant ride and handle my bike the way i thought i could, i was just simply a reckless A$$ hole with a 650 thinking every ride was a GP race.
well those days are well and truely over my bike is starting to look really Messed up. and has cost me so much to repair, and thank the man that im not in a wheel chair.
so to be brutal to myself i was the same as the woman just at the opposite end. new bike sack full of bolax and a serious lack of skill and cosideration for the bike me and the road and anyone else using it.
its very easy to loose your self on these machines.... (NO EXCUSE THOUGH)
so in short she was a bit slow and not following a safe line and basically a NOOB, at least she wasnt a D!ck like me...
Trust me i have learnt

Can I also say that I find it very amusing that we all assume the rider in front was a bloke and the one behind a woman. Could have been father and son, mother and daughter, hubby following wife, two best mates who happened to be buying bikes together...

Just a thought...
I assumed a women because of the tight fitting gear, girly helmet with flowers on it. Looked like a personal helmet jobby. And if i ever see a bloke with an @rse as good as that well, must have had a sex change. (plus the girly bike)

You really have to worry about some people that have trouble telling males from females even/especially in bike gear!

Worst rider I have ever seen is the bike that stopped at the last set of traffic lights on the A4 before it turns into the M4. He gave me a wink before he shot off like a lunatic. I followed him up over the flyover only to see him go round the left hand bend leaning off the side of his bike but the bike continuing to go straight. Bike hit the centre barriers and him and his bike slid down the road. He had jeans on and his gloves were in his back pack.

I stopped to help him, at was at this juncture that it was quite evident that the guy was ****ed. I promptly got back on my bike and left. Stopped at the next exit and called the police. He truly was the worst rider I had ever seen.

My one was quite tame to that, i always say stuff like "He'll be wrapped around a tree up the road riding/driving like that". For you this happened, i bet there was abit of you thinking you deserved it!! If it was me i would have done!!

Haha could have been, thinking about it, it did look like "get awayyyyy" on the straights and "oh 5hitttt" on the corners!!

Perhaps she was slowing down on the corners to give me a chance, either that or get a closer look at me and then when she saw me up close she was gone on the straights

Just to drag this thread up again and give something to think about.

I noticed on the North Wales rideout last weekend that one of the guys (glsuk1970 maybe? K6 whoever it was) has a vitruallly identical plate to me, only he has a T where I have a D.

We've never met before that weekend, and our plates are purely coincidental.

Who's to say that these two on the GSXR's weren't the same sort of thing? Yes they had matching gear too, but that could of been coincidence too.
