Overtook me in the van towing the trailer on a blind bend then sandwiched himself between me and the caravan infront.
2 seconds after this pic he overtook the caravan. As you can see there is a round-a-bout infront and he narrowly missed a tipper coming the other way.
The jeans, trainers and hoodie combo highlight what a tool this guy really is. The lack of mirrors seal the deal.
If anyone knows him please have a word. His roadcraft was laughable.
Natural selection at work, hopefully he won't take anyone else with him
Well at least the guy had self cancelling indicators.
I wear jeans, trainers and hoodies. Some people think I'm a tool but I'm not really, and frankly, screw them! I thought the biking fraternity was above judging people by the clothes they wear?
Sorry to hear this idiot gave you a fright, and put you and others in danger. I guess it could just as easily have been a suit wearing salesperson, or a uniformed soldier, or a lady in a frock? I'm sure he'll wind up in a tree at some point.

pss I hope you weren't driving when you took that photo
Lol, and therein lies the problem with reading this on my phone where I can't see pictures! Apologies Wiltshire Builders, I assumed you were on your bike and that some guy in a van and trailer overtook you! Was wondering how youd seen his trainers! I guess I do fit the stereotype! What a tool I feel! :-)
@brizzer, spot on, and thanks for making me realise I misread the entire post! Lol
I'll STFU now...
For sure there sun brings out some dick head riding!
Agree that jeans and hoodies don't have the monopoly on it though, driving home tonight I was blitzed by a trio of coloured leather heroes all trying to overtake me and the lorry in front before the next bend, might have looked good on their GoPro footage but looked p*ss poor from my drivers seat or the van driving coming in the opposite direction.
If only all riders were as perfect as us ; )
Keep safe out there
I saw a bloke on Sunday wearing vest, shorts, flip flops and no gloves
He was on a scooter but even still if he had come off he'd be in a right bloody mess
I won't even ride without gloves
Gotta love gloves, what a useful invention. Like motorcycles, like what kinds of people invent these things??
