Horse Shite!!!!!

Post by diesel »

hiya guys. quick question. i live in deep south wales and like to blast round the country roads. trouble is , there are so many horses dumping all over the place i was wondering if when it rains does it become mega slippery. seen as its basically grass and we all know thats a fucker to ride on ;)

i know its a weird topic but i really reckon there is a good chance of an off if you come into contact with it, especially as the dozy glue merchants do it on corners.

You ask as if you would normally plough on through horse poo if it were dry, :lol:

To be avoided at all costs id have thought, wet or dry, anything that comes between tyre and tarmac cant be a good thing!

It had me off a couple of years ago. A horse had sh*t on the road and then it had been spread by cars. Add to this the rain that was falling at the time and it was like ice. I turned right onto said road and ended up on my butt as soon as i opened the throttle.
B*st*rds should be made to clean it up.

All horses and riders on the road should be shot. The f**king things made me nearly crash so many times. If I see one on the road I pin it on the limiter and hope it dumps the rider on there butt! It’s not like there isn’t many bridleways for them to go down why the f**k do they need to f**k everyone off on the road

My rant for the day..
