Message: [QUOTE="DanAKAL, post: 904708, member: 41820"] It is guys like this that just bring out the worst in me! Learning to ride very young I had to tolerate this. It certainly wasn't the norm by a long shot but enough to ruin more than one day of riding. Somebody tell me just what an adult on a 250 gets out of roosting children on 80's. I just don't get it. Only once since those days has this come up for me and it wasn't me it was happening too. Some jerk was really messing with these kids on their 100's and 125's. They were doing hill climbs and everytime they would get started uphill he would roost them on the way up much like what you described. I watched for awhile and finally decided that enough was enough. To make this short lets say that Mr. Jerk did not like banging his 250 bars with my 300 EXC on the way up the hill. Once over the top he slides and falls over in some rocks. I turned and pulled up beside him and said that he should pick on someone his own size. He muttered a few words about my family and sexual orientation and I went back down. Parked my bike over out of the way and just waited. Mr. Jerk went elsewhere. He didn't even come back down the hill. The 125 guys thought that was the coolest thing since tank shroud graphics and all of them wanted a 300 EXC. I always wondered if those kids did anything to egg him on but finally decided that it didn't matter. What he was doing was dangerous and that don't cut it with me. Things that I wouldn't do if I were leading a hare scramble and came up on slower riders. Anyway, I didn't mean to ramble but these things really piss me off. Will I do something like that again? Yep! This is my sport and we ain't got time for such things! It's dangerous enough as it is. Dan [/QUOTE]
