I about DIED yesterday!!!

Stupid boise drivers, I was going to make a left hand turn into a parking lot to turn around had my blinkers on and everything and this car tottally disregarded me cause I was on a bike or whatever and tried to pass me on the left HE cross over double yellow lines to pass me. I caught him out the corner of my eye or I would be in the hospital right now, anyway I did my first stopie and had a passenger on the back I hit the front brakes so hard my back tire came about 2 or so feet of the ground she all most flew over my back and hurt her hand on my tank because my stomach crushed it and then my bike came back down and luckyily i recovered it. STUPID FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFing CAGERS thing they own the ROAD. I guess he was in a hurry or something stupid %#&*($#&*(&$#*(&$#. If i wouldnt have caught him out the corner of my eye he would have T-Bones us in the side. Needless to say we were both pretty shook up and had to change our underwear. ok im done ranting!

Glad you're ok. I probably would have chased him down and done something stupid. That's the part that scares me the most.

True story. Ive seen you chase plenty of people down. That scares me too. Why my gun is on the throttle side of the bike so I have to stop and think about it.

Yeah I would have done something stupid too. In fact the day I bought this bike I locked up the rear wheel still on my cruiser almost didnt make the trade because some a-hole thought his piece of ###t truck could get out across the intersection faster. I did chase him down girl wouldnt even get out of his truck.

Friday I went to help hellfire out and as I pulled out of the driveway stupid crack whore across the street almost ran me over in a jeep in my lane head on! Slammed rear brake on and put the bike sideways to whip back around, saved myself and scared the crap out of her. Funny part was I found out later that night that my 13 year old started screaming at the crack whore teenager "what are you doing, you almost ran my Dad over, what's wrong with you, you stupid............." LMFAO!

I have had to go around the block before making a turn, just cause I didnt like the way the cage behind me was following me. Good looken out though you can never be to observant.

You've never seen me hurt anybody...or ride them down the stairs like a snowboard, or drag them down in a headlock, or slam em' to the floor only to ask them what the they were thinking when they tried to shove me, or listen to them because the pressure point I'm pushing into is hurting too much, or laughing at them while their cuffed in the corner waiting for the cops to show up...

Man I wish I was still a ...

What are cagers, people in cars? Next time try to get their plate number or something. A lady casually merged right in front of me on the freeway last week, seriously? I mean she didn't even look cuz I kept my eye on her mirrors and her face and she was staring straight ahead. Don't know if this is a good reaction but I usually pass them agressively cutting right in front of them in my lowest gear I can shift to so I'm at my max rpm blowing out their ear drums letting them know I'm there. Maybe not the best thing to do but it scares them, kinda like a wakeup call.

not to thread jack or anything but last weeknd i was ran off the road in eagle at that f'ed up intersection of old state st, state hwy, and balentyne. i was turning left of the highway onto old state st and folowing a truck a car coming from balentyne sees the truck and misses me apparently but blows the stop sign and goes to pull in behind the truck exactly where i am so i have to swerve to the shoulder at which point the car continues in its path and i have to keep turning. i was able to brake without locking anything up or stoppies but had to ride into the dirt past the shoulder. if you know this intersection then my story makes sense if you dont know how messed up this intersection is it robably makes no sense.

point being, keep all your eyes open because his guy never even saw after i was off the road, he just kept on his way not knowing what happened.

I have and would've done the same thing. I've kicked a few doors and broken off a few car mirrors in my day. I always ride w/ my highbeams on, keep track of who I've passed so I can make sure they're behind me, and ride in the lane where it'll give me room to move if needed.
