Junction Marking - dapleb - 06-08-2021
Today in the custard van I found someone on a bike parked in one lane of a two laned roundabout!! They had just stopped in the lane between two junctions on the roundabout!!!. A group of about 7 bikes then scootled past on the dual carriageway and booger me if this complete imbecile didn't do the same thing on the next one.
It seems that not getting lost in the wilds of Gloucester is more important than getting splatted by a custard van.
Dunno if this kind of thing is allowed but it shouldn't be. This kind of idiocy of stopping, speeding off and then stopping in various dangerous locations is really dumb. How about knowing where you are going before hand....or get lost even, it's really not THAT bad.

Bonkers innit.
 I have followed a herd of bikers who's leader was up and down the line of bikers making sure everyone kept up. Proper nob was more often facing oncoming traffic than he was riding on the left, vehicles swerving to miss him an pipping their horns. I stayed a good 50mtrs behind. Don't really set a good example for the rest of the group do they ?Junction Marking - bjorge - 06-08-2021
Maybe a non-uk rider forgetting being in the odd-one-out country?ð

Odd ONE out?
There's an odd 76 countries n territories and 1/3 by population driving on the wrong side - let's switch, end the confusion - we current lefties can benefit from cheaper, higher spec, cars too. ð
FkWtz marking....
Plenty of folk out there just concerned with their own tiny world, who don't care or realise when they create a real or potential danger to themselves or others ð¤ª

Ah the good old marker system in use. Designed to be dangerous and piss every other road user off.
Usually run by knob heads who want to show off by racing past everyone to get back to the front again.
Round here the local IAM group regularly have 20+ on this type of ride out. Advanced motoring (motorcycling) my *rse.

To be avoided at all costs, agree they deserve a tug from the boys in blue.
