Guess I missed this thread. Yes I ride and am a firm believer in lane splitting to lights, had 2 friends centre punched in traffic. I don't use the bicycle lanes, they are there purely for political reasons. I also pushbike to work 5 days out of 6, through a park.

I am a firm believer in Natural selection but so far have no proof of it working for me, perhaps tomorrow? Push bike riders do tend to really give me the shytes with their 'little dog' syndrome.

Now before you go lumping all us motorised bike riders into one bundle, get this straight, Scooters are NOT MOTORCYCLES. These people don't even have the intelligence of the bicycle riders. I might take Lambretta's out of that generalisation but they are about it. When people get annoyed and pi$$ed at motorbikes, often these days it's the scooter crowd. I guess I have to add in Squids but they give us all a bad rep.

Have a great trip Chris and Nat. Is the website working yet? I'll look forward to hearing or reading of the adventure. It's been a long time in the planning but I'm sure it will pass in a moment.

This is NOT lane splitting as we refer to it. This is from http://www.ducati.ms , the movie was Fled.
