RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge - Bazbro_imp - 06-25-2019 Waving a "thank you" is becoming more and more prevalent, both here in the UK and in Europe. Car drivers are becoming far more "aware" of motorcyclists, perhaps because of publicity campaigns about "awareness" ("Is there a motorcyclist in your blind spot?", etc.), and motorcyclists are responding to acts of awareness, where motorists move over or keep in, by acknowledging that. French motorists are particularly good in that respect, I've noticed. It's much more polite on the roads than it used to be, but there's still a helluva long way to go. RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge - Rocky_imp - 06-25-2019 Once I get by, I always give an enthusiastic wave to anyone who waves me by or pulls over to allow me to pass. I always give a salute of thanks to left-turners who wait for me to go by and hope they get my meaning. Knock on wood, in 27 years I haven't had any incidents or close calls with a left-turner. Regardless, I still watch them like a hawk!

I've been rained on (and had to wear my banana suit) for 3 days in a row. Thunderstorms appear to be following me around these days. why i cant find here something about , or anywhere else on the page ? or i am blind bcos my english is not that good https://www.nps.gov/arch/planyourvisit/regulations.htm Here is the rule from that page : "Motorcycles are only allowed on park roads and must be equipped and licensed for interstate travel in the state of Utah. " Most of the arches are not located on the roads. You have to hike a bit to get a good look at them.
RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge - Nortoon_imp - 06-27-2019 I watch the wheels of stopped vehicles at sideroads I am approaching. I feel if you wait till you see their eyes, it is too late to avoid them if they do something dumb. RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge - Houtman_imp - 06-28-2019 I also ONLY look at the wheels of cars , even if the driver looks at you it still does not mean that he saw you !

I agree with you and Nortoon. By the time you're close enough to get a good look at the drivers face it's too close and maybe too late. The impatience of drivers today is unreal! RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge - GoldOxide_imp - 06-28-2019 Monitoring wheel motion for intent is a very good early indicator. Most of the time one cannot see through the ultra-dark tinted windows anyway. RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge - max - 06-28-2019 Yes, front wheels and checking eye contact with the driver but front wheel till the last moment, excellent advice gents. Also i ride in the middle between the two possible danger spots, that means i could be on or over the center line ( on an empty road side because it's there anyway ) if there are cars parked on the side, trucks unloading, people getting in/out of vehicles, reason is; if something happens i'm already halfway away from it and have much improved my chance of avoiding contact. And thanks everybody for the nice pictures this month, happy riding from max RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge - Cormanus - 06-28-2019 'Eye contact' is not a good indicator as you have no way of knowing whether it's really happened or you simply think it has. Wheel movement is a much better indicator. |
