What's the Real Deal with Cagers?

You  hear it all the time... "I didn't see him."... and you know what? I've decided that MOST of that is lying Bull Shit.

In the last six months, too many times... I've made freakin' EYE CONTACT with the dumb sob's as they came at me... crowdin' into MY lane... pushin' me onto the shoulder...

Comin' at me Head on... pushin' me onto the shoulder... Didn't SEE ME? Who in the hell do they think they're kidding? I could nearly see the color of their lyin' freakin' eyes! as they, obviously, deliberately, tried to bully me out of their precious damn way! AAAAAARRRRRRRGHHHHH!

What really sets my teeth on edge is that look they give... a kind of a... "You're in my way... you have no right to be in my way... MOVE!... or I'll run you down!"...

Sound kind of pissy... don't I?

The thing is... they get away with it... they run Bikers down every damn day... and then shrugging their shoulders to the cop... "I never saw the motorcycle."... they walk... when... in truth... the bastards committed Manslaughter.

How... on a bright, sunny day in Wyoming... on a straight road... with no wind, no dust, no rain... do you pull out from behind a semi... hesitate... then continue on out... coming head on at me, for several hundred feet... with my headlight on Bright... and just keep coming? Shoving me off onto the shoulder... with your middle freaking finger extended...

You've NO RIGHT to operate ANY motor vehicle on ANY Highway... ANYWHERE... EVER....
You damn near... don't have the right to... aw hell... let's not go there...

The other day... a bozo comes across the median between the on ramp we were coming down... and the traffic lane he was in... hauling his horse trailer...

He saw us... You could SEE HIM SEE US... did he move back into his lane that he never should have left? Hell no... the bastard just kept on coming... like... "I'm bigger...and your life don't mean nuthin'... and I'll just tell the Cop "I never saw the motorcycle."

That should be an instant admission of Manslaughter.... AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!

Whew! It don't change nuthin'... likely never will... But I feel better after venting a mite. :o)

Grab Your Handles and Ride!
