Do you guys have a 6th sense when riding?
So ever since i've started riding i've noticed that when scaning ahead i just seem to know who's going to be a jerk or going to do something stupid? And im begining to think riding a bike makes you hone your jackass senses. Just the other day when making a left i knew this silver civic was going to cut into my lane so i made the turn extra tight and had my hand over the front break and sure enough as i complete the turn the silver civic suddenly just pulls into my lane. I broke hard and when when she saw me she smiled and sort of waved apologetically with her hand....that wasn't holding up the cell phone. If there was another lane to the left i would have rode up beside her and smashed her rear view mirror in.
So im wondering if you guys get those "i just know this guys gonna be a dumbass" sort of feelings to.

Mate it is good that you are even thinking about the 6th sense thing
no ... not at all ...
I have been down that road a few times this week in several posts and have realized that I cannot help what others do ... so you just take care and keep using your new found 6th sense mate...
Haha i know what you're gonna say, too much bike for me.

Later when your older prolly your sense will work better, it will go from this............"Just the other day when making a left i knew this silver civic was going to cut into my lane so i made the turn extra tight and had my hand over the front break and sure enough as i complete the turn the silver civic suddenly just pulls into my lane. I broke hard and when when she saw me she smiled and sort of waved apologetically with her hand....that wasn't holding up the cell phone"
To this......"Just the other day when making a lefti knew this silver civic was going to cut into my lane, so i slowed and waited for her to make her stupid manuver, then drove on past her."

Refined anticipation skills will give everyone a better chance to stay rubber down for sure
and its not just the new guys that need to practice it either ,,
us oldies can easily slip into a state riding along where we get to confident and fail to anticipate....
