    Idiots on bikes

    I'd just like to say thanks (not) to the bunch of idiot motorcyclists on the M3 this afternoon. For those not in the know - and what a lucky bunch of people you are - basically there is ~15 miles of roadworks all the way from the M25 to Fleet services, controlled by 50MPH average speed cameras...

    Best set up for carrying bikes

    In your opinion, what is the best set up for taking 2 bikes on a trip. I'm faced with two options, either roof bars and carriers or else a boot carrier. What would you pick and why and are there any brands to go for/avoid?

    Motor Bikes

    Why is it that Motor Bikes so often whizz past the cars at speeds way above the legal limits on the A class roads and yet it is the motorists who are lectured on to 'Think Bike' ?

    SPECS speed cameras and bikes

    Whilst reading the 'maniac biker' thread, I was reminded of something which I have contemplated on a few occasions when crawling through SPECS-controlled stretches of road/motorway. Why do bikes bother to obey the speed limits in these areas? The SPECS camera system is designed purely to catch...

    Does anyone else have a problem with bikes on high beam?

    Bikes that drive around with a constant high beam (pretty intense even in broad daylight) cuts quite sharply into my retinas (figure of speech) and my auto dipped mirror does not work in the daylight. I can understand why they have them on in order to have a high visiblity, but surely it's...

    So what sort of bikes did I just run with?

    Coming off the motorway onto the dual carriageway I notice two bikes coming up very fast behind me with their lights on, we come to the end of the spur and have to sit at the lights, naturally being bikes they pull up next to me (single carriageway ahead, the lane they were in was to turn right)...
