From a friend in Canada (apologies if you can't read French).

To paraphrase, six bikes out on a ride, nutter in pickup truck cuts them up, they hoot at him and accelerate away, he deliberately speeds up and rams one of them.

It does happen in this country, I was cut up by some muppet in a 4x4 so I overtook him and gestured for to pull over, whereopon he rammed the back of the bike. At this point, luckily still on two wheels, I decided to leave best alone and report him so I scarpered (I had his reg no)

I still can't believe it, but it happened (about 2 months ago in Hersham)

I bet he needs new leathers too.

Bloke I work with just had this happen to him in the south of Germany.

Bloody rediculous.

Has anything come of it? Did BiB want to know?

IMO this should be regarded as seriously as attempted murder.
