I got BANNED yesterday! 😆

I got banned yesterday at the BMW K1600GT forum.😜. Never been banned by anything before. LMAO. How childish…

Apparently, in that pathetic clique, if you disagree with the lunacy of one of the regulars, you become the new target for harassment and ridicule, and the ire of his lordship and holy mother, Prince, the moderator. This clown has his lips locked so tight on the arses of his friends, the neighborhood clique members, and they are all constantly giving each other virtual Hand-jobs about how utterly awesome they all are. It’s comical.

I got away from BMW 20 years ago because of grumpy old men like that back then. They are worse now. I love my K1600GT but you can keep the average BMW rider. I care for them about as much as I care for the tatted up Harley, loud and obnoxious crowd. (they are the 2 sides to the same greasy nasty coin).

I am really beginning to see the wisdom in withdrawing more from most of the world. I really love my life and my peace and quiet. People are an unreasonable and unwelcome intrusion and affront most days.

So, to celebrate, I’m going on a great ride this morning with my best friend, so that life goes on with the people I like around me. 👍🙏😀

I just have to chuckle though. Banned for speaking the truth…. 😆😆😆

I don’t hide behind monikers or avatars. If you want to find me, just search my real name and there I am.

There is a reason I do not belong to social media and most everything in the modern worl

Well, that IS something. Bikers get a bad name from bikers that do stupid, reckless stuff. Quite a long time ago, on Skyline Boulevard in the SF Bay Area, there was a biker who would use a steel chain to smash car windows as he was passing them because they weren't going fast enough for him or wouldn't pull over. A lane splitter on the Bayshore Freeway (US 101) banged on my mother-in-law's car to get her to move over toward the concrete divider because she was only going 75 in a 65 zone and he wanted to pass. Scared the daylights out of her. Wheelies on the freeway, weaving in and out at 90 mph, all that stuff. I just shake my head.
Pete. Did that chain wielding biker quit smashing car windows before or after the good citizens living on Skyline Boulevard started
"Spilling" oil on the twisty bits ?
I quit riding Skyline soon after I heard about the oil spills.
Right around when we moved to San Jose.
Mapped out several less used twisty options for early morning rides from Berryessa flea market to Santa Cruz.

Man oh man. Spilling oil could kill somebody. Especially somebody on two wheels. I had not heard that, but I think it would behoove me to avoid Skyline! Glad you found better routes to ride.
