Have to say, that whilst on duty, I've never seen a gang of "real" bikers riding simultaneously as twats, the same way I soooo often do with the scooter guys.

You not been on a TLB rideout then????   ':p'  '<img'>  

As with everything it depends on the rider of the machine doesn't it?  Also whether you have a taste for them depends on your own opinions.

Personally like Matt I do not much like scooters - neither the sound nor the look of them so for that reason would not get one myself.  However,  as I said I know a couple of good riders who ride them - SL is one of them so despite seeing some horrendous idiotic things done by kids on scoots (and probably unlicensed ones at that),  I would not label all scooter riders the same.

Just the same as I have seen some really silly riding on bikes but know that doesn't automatically apply to all bikers!   '<img'>  '<img'>

I get the mick taken because of the bike I ride - do I care?  Nope not at all!   '<img'>

I thought it was only the other London bikers site that was scooter intolerant but I now notice this site is no different.

ok, you've been on this site for a week and you've met how many of the 850+ members that have been here longer than you??
It's quite clear in the first post of this thread that the scooter riders are both at fault over the off duty policeman. The winding up was between Trouty and Tallguy who have known each other for years, as we don't know much about you, why would we be winding you up??
The last time I remember a scooter slagging on here was when scooters were blamed as the main culprites by the police when the bridge was taken from us.
So unless we have a poll or general debate on people's feelings towards scooterists, I don't see how any of us can call us scooter intolerant???
Loud cans save lives.

OK tell me how a boy can grow two jacket sizes in 7 weeks??  or did Moss bros fuck up the measuring???? and its the day before the wedding..

Organizing a wedding and a funeral at the same time was never in the fucking plan.

I'm not anti-scooter at all, just anti-moron.  The trouble is a lot of 16 year old boys (and hopefully girls) get on scooter's coz they are the only thing they can legally ride, but most of them haven't got the sense how to ride safely.  I mean how many of us did when we were 16, I didn't.
And even if you're filtering the person behind should still leave enough space to stop safely if you do an emergency stop - adequate stopping distance and all that.
Love my new bike!

Jesus Matt you lost weight? what's your secret? '<img'> (  ':lurve:'  really  )

I don't really like scooters, but that's cos much of the twattish riding that goes on distracts me while I'm trying to put my lippy on in the rear view mirror.
