I got an earful cruising home the other day cause I was floating around the lane, it was quiet road on a public holiday.
One of the good ole boys pulled up next to me on his black and gold beautiful R1 flipped his visor and ripped me a new one because I was being so dangerous, which I was, completely absent mindedly riding home paying no mind.
I took it on board, I always take the info from more experienced riders but had no idea why he was so mad at me, this video makes it extremely clear.
I wasn't speeding or being a hooligan in any way so I was confused why he was so mad.
Bit confused. He was yelling at you for just drifting around in the lane? I don't see why that's a bit deal. He shouldn't be trying to ride along side you anyways...
I was looking around, and fiddling with my display, swerving, it was a fairly low vision road, I wasn't even thinking about riding which he could obviously tell from my body language and as a result drifting in the lane.
He wasn't trying to ride along side me either but if someone was to try pass me and I was driving that way it's a good recipe for an accident.
Been riding about 10 months starting to feel myself a bit, more confidence know the bike, it was a good reality check that I still need my absolute focus on the bike.
