    What's a "real biker"? :-?

    Is that like a "real Harley rider" as opposed to a biker (real or otherwise) who rides a Harley? :

    Those 20mph zones are ridicules and the 40mph zones seem to be spreading further and further past. Wouldn't surprise me if everywhere is 20 and 40 and they fit tracking devises to our bikes and cars to fine us for speeding.
    People need to stand against this stupidity

    when you do good no one remembers
    when you do bad no one forgets
    not trying to start an argument but your against bikers that harm our rep & you say you clipped a couple of mirrors of the ones that slowed down in the lanes so you saying thats bad biking to slow down? :-?
    onwards and upwards and sometimes a little sidewards....

    oh right....thought you'd said ypu'd broke mirrors on both as above quote didn't really single out cars only for the mirrors

    i'm afraid people in this thread have been reading what THEY want to read.

    i went with the flow.

    i do agree with the proposals and i do take positive action
    but you read what you want to read.maybe i've used my words carefully but sun readers come to mind

    don't read the sun its wank.
    your qoute didn't differentiate between only the mirrors on cars not bikes so a little hard to read anything other than what you wrote, but like i said not trying to start an argument i just like to understand how people think and gain a little insight into how there are so many differences in humanity.

    your also entitled to your opinion FB which is why i like how varied and open this forum is. as far as positive action goes and remove your real riding style from the equation, if you were riding in a manner that you felt was appropriate for the road/conditons and someone clipped your mirror, how would you handle it?

    genuinly interested in the thought process behind this

    maybe the VF(?) cares....anyhoo think maybe my posts are not being seen as i intended so i'll leave it there FBob.

    *back on topic*
    yes i agree limits have there place under the right circumstances but there is a stretch of dual carriage way near me that has been dropped to a 40 and a couple of miles of this really stretches the journey out unnessecerily
