Sounds to me like the Busa rider was riding his own ride and enjoying the day.

With all the experience you have, why do you always sound like a punk when it comes to other riders?

that's exactly what I was thinking. every post telling everyone how awesome he is and someone else slowed him down.

I've been in both situations... I've followed someone through some nice bit of road and was fuck'n annoyed when they didn't pull off... especially at the gap with cars...

but I've been on the other end... have people come up on my ass.. and because I expect people to let ME pass... I pull over.

I think its common courtesy... if there's an area... pull over... and honestly... I'd probably think you were a jerk for not doing so.



goes the same for trucks and RV's... if you have a line of people behind you... pull over and let them by... it sucks to be stuck behind an RV or a slow truck...

if your out enjoying the ride/drive... GREAT! enjoy it... but be courteous to other drivers/riders and let them by...
