Sorry about that. If it makes you feel better, a few weeks ago I saw what must have been this guys brother try the same thing, but he dropped his bike because he had to stop at the last minute. I was in my car and because he cut a guy off, I did not stop to help him pick it up.
I would have saved it if there hadn't been sand and gravel on the parking lot. I had the weight and was pushing it up and my foot slipped...Dang!

I have noticed lately Courtesy is gone. Not just Harley riders, but when in groups they become some of the worst. ABATE had a camp out near, so their was a big group of loud bikes running around Hell.

Well, I'm curious...are you angry because somebody cut you off? Or are you angry that they rode a Harley? Would it have made a difference if they had been riding a Honda? Or even another BMW?
My sense of this is that ya oughta be glad that nothing really bad occurred... If you were on the receiving side of this action this time, it's quite possible that at some point in time you were on the other side of it, and some Hog pilot was sayin' that 'Beemer adam henry'...
adam henry.... is that kinda like alpha hotel mike foxtrot?![]()

Maybe if you gave the Harley riders (and everyone else) more room, those things would not happen. Take it as a lesson on riding the bike and don't blame others for your lack of riding ability.![]()

What in the Henry is ATGATT ?
Everyday you must assume: Harley nOOb posers with their first 2 wheeler since grade school, teenagers learing to drive, cell phone gab, buger in one hand drink in the other and WHO"S GOT THE WHEEL.
It's called, watch out for the other guy. It takes only a half second of blink to be down. Nature of the beast.
Know the difference between a Harley and a Hoover? The location of the dirtbag...

Folks, let's keep the good natured bike/rider bashing off the board. It's OK to discuss the situation, but let's try and leave the generalities of the bikers involved out of it.
Thanks...

This is a big reason I avoid poker runs unless I know the groups habits. I don't mind a few beers after a ride but drinking during a ride is stupid.
I also never ride with anyone who isn't at least wearing riding shoes, long pants, and riding jacket, and no skull caps for helmets. I can't ride with someone who has no regard for his own life.
