An accident waiting to happen
I don't know... maybe I'm getting old and crotchety, but I see bikers riding like they are invincible and it really gets to me.

I went on a 40 mile ride today, just to blow the cobwebs away, y'know?

In that one ride I saw:

Bikes overtaking on double white lines......overtaking on the approach to a blind 90 degree bend (2 x GSX-R's chasing a mate)......overtaking along chevrons (and only just getting in before hitting a bollard)......entering a roundabout in the right hand lane then taking the first exit off the roundabout, cutting up a car in the process.......and the worst of all - take a bow Mr Death Wish - overtaking a queue of cars and bikes at speed where the car at the front of the queue WAS TURNING RIGHT.

Is it me or is it spring madness?
