Not me. Although I was on that road on Thursday morning I did not have a passenger and nor did I see a motorcycle:-)

I got stuck behind a driver like that, on my lectric bike, uphill, and I couldn't get past the bugger. Not that I didn't have the extra oomph, but de f***er was annoyingly taking up all his lane as he myopically tried to see where he was.

Been there. Done that. F****r kicked the side of my car for not leaving him= the room to pass me on the outside entering the roundabout.But I got him. = Half way round the roundabout. Put him right off his bike. Scared the bejay= zus out of both of us. He got up.I got out. We both apologised, shook hands= and went on our merry way.

I had a Norton. I once ran into a Reliant that pulled out in front of me. I took a header right over his bonnet. The Reliant was a write off. The bike had a small dent in the petrol tank.
