Biker Down - Overseas Division

On the Pune Airport road. Small "Hero Honda" had hit an auto-rickshaw.
There was a slightly confused looking cow nearby, which may or may not
have been involved.

Anyone have more news? ;^)

(No , I'm not sure how that happened either).

 

Having ridden bikes in India a few times I can most certainly concur
that cows, goats and dogs will go wherever they darn well please.

When riding towards an animal in the road, the general rule tends to be;

Cows always go forwads
Dogs always go backwards
Goats could go any way.

Mind you, it tends to be best not to hit the cows, what with them being
all sacred and all.

;-)

Hope that helps.

 

I would have thought their being rather big was reason enough.

OMG! I wonder if it's anyone who reads or posts here?

 

TOG, on the Monkey Bike, training for the Furt Club Run.

 

Neighbour lived in Bangalore for some time whilst working for Hindustan
Aircraft co. He was assigned a driver for his car. When he said he didn't
want one and was happy to drive himself he was told under no circumstances
should he drive as if he hit a cow the crowd would lynch him. They could
always get a new driver, he was more valuable.

 

Stop rubber necking, you goit.

 

Not to mention that it makes apartheid SA and Chechnya look like Butlins, in
places.

 

It was a complete and utter BOLLOX of a job. The **** in charge of it just
could not be bothered to spend time on the job. If you ask me he should have
been pushed out in a small boat and blown up.

Latest count put 130 million muslims in India FFS. In fact I think it's the
2nd biggest muslim population of any country.

It's the lack of comment by the BHAL that intrigue me. Not ours mind, them
over there>>>

 

Not the two little brown fuckers that tried to eat my tyres when I was
riding through Colnbrook the other day...

 

Don't think so. It was about 5' at the shoulder, brown. Had quite big
horns, with a slight curl in them. And a purple painted patch on its
back.

Ring any bells?

cow.

 

Me or it?

 

Yersh.

 

Blimey, some people have too much time on their hands. ;o)
