Why on earth they think it's fine to filter at 60mph i don't know, it's so easy for them to sneak up on you without being seen. The thing that really pisses me off is when bikers overtake traffic when you're coming towards them, using your side of the road trying to force you off the road.....ultimately you're highly likely to come off worse when you come off your bike so why some people seem to wanna raise the stakes of it happening i don't know

Because too many bikers put thier own lives in the hands of other people instead of taking care of it themselves mate
