I was just having a bit of fun on my BMX in the street and 3 road bikers came and like tried to copy what i was doing by jumping off the curb and shouting out "I F***ing had him" and i was just thinking to myself watching them wave their fingers at me and acting so gay and listening to them trying to be cocky. I felt like shouting something but as I'm only 15 and was on my own in my own quiet little village i thought i'd better not.

Quite a lot of roadies are alright but its just those few who give the whole biking and bikers a bad name and stuff like that.

    well say that 10% of the population are d1cks then 10% of road bikers are d1cks hell even 10% of BMX riders are d1cks. try not to let people get you down or even affect how you judge people by what they are riding or look like.

    tossers - I'd have sworn at them, but made sure I had a speedy exit route planned. In fact no I'd have just called them tossers, then got off the bike and they'd have pissed off. For you, a speedy exit immediately after calling them twats would have been better.

    Or inwardly chuckle to yourself at the ways of the world and it's guests and then go back to doing your own 'thang.

    How the feck is he gonna outrun roadies on a bmx :shock:

    Only thing to do is get off, stand up for yourself, then laugh as they can't fight in spuds.

    Unless you can ride like in BMX Bandits :wink:

    Sounds quite funny to me, but if it made you feel bad then you should've shouted something. At least you'd feel better about it. Nothing wrong in dishing some out (in return to their jibes) :lol: but best to do so while smiling I find.

    I found that quite funny, but then I do have a taste for sarcastic humour...

    Still, if you felt uncomfortable, let 'em have it. What's the worst that can happen?

    The people that really wind me up are the ones who go round with their jeans tucked in their socks & wearing halfords helmets hanging off the backs of their heads.

    GODDAMN they're the ones who give bikers bad names, can't keep the bike straight, ride in the middle of the road & and just look ridiculous.

    How could a road bike possibly perform BMX stunts? :?
