All the bikers in the US need to form a new organization, MAC, motorcyclist against cagers! Then have a team of kick *** lawyers pursue suing the crap out of people that just can't drive. Oh well I can dream cant I?

RE: Jesus.........
I was going down the street a couple of weeks ago, and this lady cut across two lanes trying to get into the right turn lane into the mall. I saw what she was doing and dropped back a little just to see what was going to happen. When she jumped into the right turn lane, she was about 10 feet in front of me and did not have a clue I was even there. It is becoming apparent to me that most people only watch for cages, not bikes. I honked at her and followed her into the mall and shook my fist at her and she was clueless about why I was pissed so I just rode on. But that is the problem in a nutshell, they watch for cars and nothing else.

RE: Jesus.........
I was leaving work and someone actually pulled up next to me at the stoplight...in my lane! Evidently I didn't deserve all of that space
So I flipped up my visor and stared intently at his face (through the passenger window as he was maybe 4 inches from my bike) for the next few minutes, he looked a few times, but mostly just wished he were somewhere else and avoided eye contact. No yelling or anything else could have made him so uncomfortable I think.

they are starting to run commercials all the time all day long about watching out for bikes, i think it's a GPS/public safety commercial. i think i clapped to myself in the cage when i heard it too lol.
i've been havin the problem lately with little g thuggin 17yr olds riding my ****...and i don't mean close, i mean literally 2-3 feet off my tire!!! don't know what to do cuz i don't wanna brake n ruin myself n the bike but when i talked to my cousin we deemed that the best method for now is to slow way down and try not to get hit..at least at high speeds. yet another reason i gear up all the time, and my girl will too, i'm droppin another couple hundred this week or next prolly for a second set of gear for a passenger. what i would really like to do is carry nerf or racketball ***** in a little baggie on my back seat to toss when they get to close lol!!

RE: Jesus.........
Almost a year ago when I first got my KLX250S I was heading about .5 mile to get to my trails and I was doing mayabe 3mph over the speed limit. All I heard was blasting music and as soon as I came around the corner, here came a damn white box van doing about 60 down a 25mph road and he was half way onto my lane. I was furious, so I slammed on the back brake and chased his *** to the stop sign. He didn't stop but luckily there was a cop sitting there and he got pulled over for speeding and failing to stop I knew the cop (family friend) so I got the details and he also knew I was 14.
