If you’d bother to read the post instead of getting your panties in a twist i said I have nothing against bikers, I am one when health allows it, the problem I have is when 30 of them hurtle down our narrow village road at full tilt from a 30% incline, kids, old folk, bikers going up the hill, cars, tractors, pushchairs, all sorts of foot and vehicular traffic using the narrow road is going to end one hell of a nasty pile up going at that rate down the hill. If you don’t agree then imo there’s no hope for you, you go ahead and head butt a 7 ton John Deere towing a 30’ flat bed trailer full of haybales, there’s only one winner from that clash, hopefully they jet wash your brains off the street well enough that we don’t have to see it. As for your mates, that’ll be A&E clogged up all day with moaning twisted biker bodies having to be dealt with, not to mention all the ambulance staff and vehicles taken up ferrying the lot of them up there all because they can’t be bothered to use their high powered disc brakes for a short time. Brilliant, well done.
And do please let us know into or what, or whatever you can think of group that Z4 owners get pigeon holed into, personally I'm not aware of one but that’s why I’m asking so I can be enlightened.

I think we all know who’s got their pants in a twist
So the fishing line piano wire suggestions don’t bother you, strange when you’re so concerned about blocking A&E up but you have nothing against bikers
If you’re seriously concerned about the situation and not just a moaner then do something about, without trying to injure them. Try talking to them for a start?
Also don’t presume you know me and that I ride like that and my mates ride like that, this is the stereotypical bullshit that goes on all the time!
As for the rest I don’t think you’re that naive

The piano wire plus branches across tracks, nails on routes etc, is happening just round the corner from me, a couple of villages on, plus I’m a biker too as I already said, so why wouldn’t it bother me..?
The rest of your post makes so little sense it’s not worth bothering with tbh, I can’t have a sensible discussion with someone that doesn’t read, or understand much.

Someone has actually strung piano wire over a track used by cyclist?
Presumably the village has small boss eyed boys sat in trees duelling banjos, and guys with their trousers at half mast hollering squeal piggy squeal at passing cyclist? I'd be doing 30 mph+!

Spoken like a true octogenarian, gearknob moisturising, octane fantasist hairdresser who regularly makes love to his girlfriend aka clay mitt.
Who are these mountain bikers that enjoy going 30mph on a flat road btw, John? I’m not even sure my hardtail will do 30mph. Maybe down a steep hill in a slipstream. Wait, let me go test that theory...

Sure, but do you ride that bike for road speed?Jollyjoiner wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2019 9:48 am MrPT your not trying hard enough, I've managed 43mph on my full suss mountain bike on one of my local routes lol
I'm just wondering what the pack of riders john is talking about were doing. Between trails, I guess?

I didn’t say 30mph Mr PT, I said down a 30% incline, which it is, read the post again.....MrPT wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2019 9:33 amSpoken like a true octogenarian, gearknob moisturising, octane fantasist hairdresser who regularly makes love to his girlfriend aka clay mitt.

Someone is seriously pissed off with the bikers Ewazix, no idea why though, they’re putting wire, branches, nails out to cause as much grief as possible. It’s obviously someone local, taken a nasty vendetta to them it seems.Ewazix wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2019 8:10 amSomeone has actually strung piano wire over a track used by cyclist?

Ah sorry, it was Ewazix. Either way, this is turning into Sesame Street.
