Why do they bother?
Cruised into town tonight and met Vike and Cock for a couple of quiets, two Brunes at Le Dome with Vike and another while we watched Cock strut his stuff in the bowling alley above the Casino. It was an early finish, things to do tommorow so we all headed off home.
I walked down to me bike and proceeded to idle my way along Victoria St towards home when all of a sudden this older-and-should-know-better dude takes offence to me approaching and makes a scene of roaring off down the dual-carriageway section, but I take no notice.
We both approach the London St lights which are red. He revs, I ignore, he revs I ignore. The lights change and the tin-top starts to roar off down the street. I decide to give him 30 milliseconds of glory then ease the throttle open and blast past in 1st gear.
For some strange reason as I passed his drivers door I got this overwhelming urge to give him the bird, which I held in an assertive pose for the hundred yards or so it took for him to realise I'd dissapeard off into the distance.
Juvenile? ... Yes !!!
Satisfying? ... Definately !!!
