This morning, lane splitting quite nicely and making my way towards the highway at Malibingwe drive (Hans Strydom for the old school folk ;D).
A soupabike in front of me (revving loudly and no numberplate) comes past and attempts to squeeze through the tight traffic. His mirror bumps a car mirror, pushing it out of joint and just continues on his way. No apology, wave or gesture, just keeps going.
The traffic was at a standstill so i pull up next to the cage, he says " f^%$#^# bikers!"
I apologise on behalf of the moron on the soupabike and assure him that not all bikers are arseholes, some are just born that way.
Dude smiles and laughs, fixes his mirror and we move on!

(on another matter, guy stops next to me at the Eishkom offices traffic light on a scrambler, wearing a PT broek, MX boots, jacket and helmet ;D ;D)
