Liz and I got kind of goaded today, Set of lights and we filtered to the front, Mr Volvo with his roof box didnt like it and wanted to play. He was creeping and creeping forward we shot off and then he came up behind us and tried to overtake he got a fistfull of throttle from me and then shot off in front again as I let him go, then I noticed he was in the wrong lane so me and Liz had a game of box him in behind the van and keep him there.

It was childish it was fun...

It was down in your neck of the woods Blue, along that bit of road under the M27, theres a Shell garage at one end, then a few car dealers, then the road goes down into Cosham past sainsbury's, but I'm not sure what the road is called, its all dual carriageway with a 50 limit...

Cosham is technically UP from where I think you are suggesting ... it is also technically NORTH of the the M27 ... but sounds like you were going down toward Hilsea (there is Nissan, Mazda and Vaxhaull dealers down there) ....

You were probably going along the A27 (Southampton Road) as that is the only 50+ zone round there I know of round there ...

I do the goading mostly, I need faster bikes and cars to run interference for coppers, lasers and cameras

My sister used to have a mentality along those lines ... she would basically wait until someone passed her on the motorway and then pull out and follow them ... here logic being that the cops would nick the one in front and not her!! ... I am not sure how flawed that rationale is in reality!!

No, I tear away up to about 100MPH and then slide over to the left lane and tap off ever so slightly. Never fails and they come screaming past at warp speed, then I give chase, but not too close.
If the pace flags I pass them again. BMWs work the best

Got goaded today on way back from Rivington Barn. Someone in a Clio Sport with twin exhausts which were virtually hanging off it. Sat at a set of lights on red and he was in outside lane revving it like he was on the grid at an F1 GP. Normally i would have just let him have his fun but decided to show him my lovely tail tidy instead! Was great fun, particularly as a mile from the lights are 2 pretty long tunnels which the bike sounds awesome through

Most cars around here aren't worth it. Even the SV would leave them standing.

I like to chase faster bikes though (lots of twisties here). Just really to show them that a budget bike can keep up.

With smaller cc bikes its just a giggle. There's an NSR125 I see a lot who likes to think he can race big bikes, but he's out of the running quickly.


That doesn't make me a hooligan does it?

Hey Razor you have to watch BMW's cos the ones without letters/numbers can be beasts!

I've listened to what I thought was an M5 at the lights and thought better than to go for it and he's shot off like a dragster like probly 600hp and lots of smoke!

General BM's are easy though thats true!

I like Z4's with impressible girlfriend accessory and top down cos they can hear me laugh at them as I waft past!
