Why does it matter? People can ride their own ride

.... as long as they aren't holding up traffic let them do what they want.
Sometimes my opinion comes out strong, even when I should just bite my tongue. But I'm a fun loving guy, really.
Come and live in 3 Sisters Country. It's a daily occurrence and this is Thunder In The Hills weekend. Just remember, when you wait to pass on the straighter stretches, they will wind it out.
I just don't get any feelings of satisfaction or superiority from passing riders that don't ride well.
It ain't a matter of who conquered who.
This reminds me of last year on the 2011 Hill Country Gather. We were going along Hwy 335 and came to a stretch of road (after following a group of Harleys for some time), once we hit the straight away - we (all 3 on FZ1's) attempted to pass them. Each of the Harleys seemed to be on a mission to NOT let us pass. They hit full throttle and attempted to block us. It was kind of crazy. Just don't understand how some people think. AND it wasn't just one of them that did this - it was the whole group. So apparently they had decided before they took off that they were not going to be passed.
You just gotta roll that FZ1 throttle a few more RPMs man! Don't let 'em know till you are gone!
Don't worry Bud - We passed them. :squid:
It was just their mind set that blew me away. I have owned 2 Harley's and I never thought twice about sport bikes passing me. In fact - I was just envious of the agility of the sport bikes. That is what brought me over to the sport bike side.
To go so far as to try to block someone from passing - that is just crazy!!!
Ah gotcha. It is weird. I've seen that kind of behavior out on roads too, unfortunately. I don't quite understand why someone would block the road.....some kind of tough guy macho bullshit maybe. Life is too short to waste energy worrying about it, I believe.
