ANVIL Â Â 10 #1 Posted July 25, 2016 You with the orange helmet - perhaps you'd like to PM me and explain your reasons for what appeared to be an unprovoked gesture? I would have happily discussed your reasons with you in the layby, but I suspect making gestures and then riding away is more your style.

Jog_on   10 #6 Posted July 25, 2016 Yes let's hope he is. It's quite possible he has a different version of events. Many drivers are completely unaware of their surroundings (not saying this about you Anvil, but we only have one side of it).

ANVIL Â Â 10 #10 Posted July 25, 2016 I certainly didn't - I was also on two wheels...(I do drive a car as well) Â ---------- Post added 25-07-2016 at 21:45 ---------- Â You obstruct other road users and you're proud of it.
