Idiot on a goldwing

[muleskinner]

Okay. Let me set the scene here. So this morning about 11:30 A.M., I was driving my full size Dodge diesel 4X4 pick up truck home from breakfast in town. The road I travel is a narrow two lane, asphalt country road. The lanes are 30' wide, with dirt shoulders. In the area I was driving there are deep dips that swallow up the view of motorcycles coming in the opposing lane. As I was driving toward the crest of one of the dips, I encountered a very new looking, bright White Goldwing riding on the center line, partially in my lane.

As I moved over to the right as much as I could so I would not hit him, I motioned to the rider with my right hand to move back over into their lane. The rider then flipped me off! Wow! Really! What an idiot. I know some cage drivers that hate M/C riders that ride super close to the center line and have even heard comments from some of them that they drive more towards the center line when they encounter such riders! Lucky for the GW rider I am not one of those drivers, but rather a fellow M/C rider!

The rider must have had Lawrence Welk, or Barry Manilow turned on loud on his stereo system!

Was in South Dakota riding through needles, came upon a bad wreck to Harley dressers hit head on in a curve hugging the yellow line spun out and hit their friend that was riding with the crowd and killed him also just because they did not know how to stay off the yellow line.

Never be surprised about Gold Wing riders

If they could ride properly they wouldn't be on Gold W*nks would they?

Good thing that jack hole's "bike" was about the same size as your 4x4 (but with a better reverse gear).

When i first bought my Gerbing heated suit i was doing a two hundred mile ride, on the way back i jacked up the heat on the suit and found myself zoning out almost to the point of falling asleep. That with playing Jeff Beck in the head phones could be a recipe for not paying attention. Riding relaxes me sometimes to the point where i forget the crazys on the road.. not good. On long hauls going cross country there were times i couldn't remember the last fifty miles behind me. Zoning out is easy to do.

A few Margaritas and Jeff Beck has the same zoning out effect also

Oh yea Dan. That thing was huge! Looked like a Honda Civic cut in half coming at me on two wheels. Scared the hell out of me! I'll just bet he had his "Trucker Sucker" turned on listening to "Fig Newton". That's why he was not paying attention,,,,.

He may have been distracted with the 2013 Goldwing Keurig dispenser. Also, the K-Cups pop out the easiest using your middle finger so that may have just been a misunderstanding as well

Cut the guy a break. The lower model Goldies only have the 3-speed blenders and smaller microwaves.

He was prolly just trying to make himself a little lunch when you distracted him by driving in one of his 3 lanes.

I believe on the 2013 model they have discovered how to mount the kitchen sink
