Yes. Paul - any chance?


Sure. In one way I disapprove - I wish we could all be road users - equal and together.

But I lost the argument for NOT setting up a cyclists' forum and I expect this would be the same all over again. :hehe:

When stuck in jams, I am usually the only person to move to the left (or right, depending which lane) to let a biker through easily. And I have never had a nod or wink - feel a bit cheated!

Why? Are you doing it for a reward?


.....er, no!

I was just sharing my (I think good) driving practices with the forum, and adding my observations....isn't that what fora, especially a "safe driving forum", is for?

Perhaps if you read the thread again you will see that I'm not making any requests or attacks on bikers.

And the fact that bikers might not be as polite in my neck of the woods as others have found, won't stop me being courteous either.

I get the impression from my early observations on this forum, that there are some defensive reactions based on skim-reading of posts and threads. Please prove me wrong as this an excellent site!

So why do you 'feel cheated'?

You're being overly literal I think, FJS. I think what smudger actually meant was " feel a bit cheated :D " I didn't for a second think that he/she was being serious.

Thanks Mrs Miggins - you've understood me perfectly!

Aarrgh, I just hate these smilies, but I suppose I'd better start using 'em!
