BIG FAT GRINS on my pizza ped.

Post by wonderpupp »

Last night, out on pizza delivery on my pizza ped (called Rex) doing my top speed of 33mph in a 30 zone through town.

This ZX6R flashed past me, giving me very little space and clearance. "Wanker" I thought. Cos I hate when you don't get given space on the road, and get cut in front, then he didn't even clear off or anything! Sat at 30mph. Which sucks when you're delivering pizza. 3mph is EVERYTHING...

Then a BMW Z4 went to go past me and a freak gust of wind pulled me to the right and my elbow clipped his left side wing mirror and it fell off and was hanging down over his door and scraping the passenger door.

He slammed his brakes on and I had to stop then he started shouting at me. I said "freak gust of wind, mate." and plodded off.

When I got back from delivery, my boss said he had a phone call. I told him "he was overtaking me in a 30 zone as I was doing 30mph. Does he really want to do an insurance claim?? I'm happy to claim off him for my damaged elbow."
after my boss called him back, the guy apologised to me.

Big Grins.

I agree. Wanker. Bikers should know better. Prob felt his manhood was at risk if he was seen to be behind a girl on a pizza ped! Oh the shame. :smt011

BMW drivers on the other hand...you expect no better. I'm surprised the mirrors fall off just like that though - german build quality and all. Must have been a really big gust of wind :smt002 :smt002
