No wasn't speeding ...so you're saying I should drive into the lorry instead of stopping lol ..I apologise for misinterpreting the high way code , as give way to the right or those already on the roundabout and when changing lanes don't make the other lane brake or change course .. I agree my hand signals are I bit over the top (spur of the moment frustration) and he might have the radio on so miss the language ;-) but at least you haven't called me names in this post so it's progress

I just let my emotions get the better of me no one mentioned the apology and chilled bit seconds later .. I just put it up good or bad ...it's not really a big deal and I would hope new riders will look and say fuck you have to be careful ..so it's not all bravado and i never thought I would hit any of them ...if I lived in a rural area and didn't encouter aggressive driving (not just me) every day I may well be chilled all the time ...hope we can all hug and share a brew in the future
you dont have to justify your riding to anyone.

No need to justify anybodies riding, but it is a chance to learn. Anybody who thinks they have nothing to learn in riding is fooling themselves. I always enjoy feedback from people I ride with, the negative more than the positive as I learn from the negative.

So agree there is no need for name calling, but it is useful to give hints and tips where people are putting themselves into danger. I would hate to think that a person was not given the chance to improve and became a fatality due to that.

He may be blunt and I don't always agree with him, but I do appreciate GN2's candour! ;)

If you feel like checking it out, my youtube channel has everything I have come across on my daily commute since riding again after my second accident in November last year, I don't get angry so no swearing and gesticulating (aside from hand signals), the video's have been mostly stripped of all audio due to wind noise.
