Default Almost killed!!

Wifey and myself were riding over the MacArthur causeway heading west on Sunday. I looked in the mirrors just in time to see two sport bikes going at least 100 miles an hour zoom past me in my lane. I thought we were going to make contact for sure. Dumbasses!

What's your problem, Dumass? Don't you know that sport bikes OWN the road? You should be grateful that they even let the rest of us borrow it.

Yes, the cars are bad enough already. Glad y'all are OK.

had some asswipage on a busa split me and a friend at about 120 on a four lane road. Tried to chase him down to the next stop light. That was an exercise in futility.

Had the same thing happen to me, the guy missed me by inches in my lane, must
have been going 100+!!
If I had just wandered a little bit off course, he could have easily killed the both of us.
I hate those asswipes that do this crap!

I was telling a friend the other day i figure thats what will cause my next crash is a sport bike seeing how close he can go by me.

Had one miss me by a pack of smokes the other day.

I have a bad habit of wandering around in my lane when i'm on deserted roads.

YEA, wandering is a very bad habit, I am much more aware of it now that
someone came so close to me at high speed!
