I've used the quote on other sites but I don't think I have on this site...
We are all masters of our own destiny, what we do individually reflects upon us collectively. We nearly all like to ride fast and push the envelope of our skills, but when done on the public roads we then run the risk of pissing off the public. The public are all voters and the more they get pissed off with loud bikes ridden irresponsibly by twats the closer the day is coming when we won't be able to enjoy our bikes.
If you don't believe me Google Richard Brunstrom, this knob is my local chief constable, he wants to ban bikes from Snowdonia (North Wales mountainous region with awesome roads).
Just last weekend two bikers were killed and one seriously injured, this happened because one of the bikers was on the wrong side of the road when cornering and took the other biker out, this is happening more and more around Wales. All this is giving dicks like Brunstrom the ammunition he needs to restrict a bikers liberties and once that happens our days are numbered.
So the next time you go out, enjoy yourself but think of the consequences of your actions, especially if you are breaking the law...
