Axracing Display Pic..

[Fubsy]

Random I know but Wtfs AXracing display pic all about? A saxo pulling out infront of a motorcycle on a straight road?

I myself was in a huge motorcycle accident 7 months ago just learning to walk again because of a young driver not paying attention at a junction, maybe I should bite my tongue. But just wanna know AXracing is it supposed to be amusing or ?

ive always wondered that too.. Good post :y:

[Saxomatic]

Random thread, but good point.

[Saxo-SX]

Must say, I have also wondered what was happening lol.

Im sure theres a logical explanation

Must be planned or something or its a random time to take a photo

[JamesR]

It's the fact it is a Saxo pulling out, by as a motorcyclist myself i don't find it amusing at all.

[sparky771]

i popped the question about 2 months ago and recieved no clear answer so we shall see :P

[-Alex-]

Wouldn't it have been better PMing him? Chances are this will get deleted and he will never see it? :wacko:

[matt19]

i was wondering that too tbh , thought it was a bit strange :S

[Fubsy]

Well I was just in the problems section of the site and noticed it, dont really understand why ud have something like that as ur display pic educational maybe? Maybe im just abit to touchy about the subject as i was nearly killed recently lol :D

Glad to see some of u thought the same tho :)

Maybe but then he may of just told me its the INTERNETS and he can do wtf he likes lol, or just told me to pissoff which maybe he will anyway :D! but just wonderd if anyone else had thought that same obviously u have :)

I thought the same I agree, and thought whata knob, then read his posts and retracted my first comment. From the way he posts I would assume it's not him, or it's something that we don't get fully lol

Well tbh i thought it might be which in my eyes makes it worse.. :S

AX racing is probably one of the more senior and sensible members on the forum

taking an avatar a touch to seriously imo

Hehe yea well only read a few of his posts and he seems like a nice enough fella, maybe he just hates bikers? lol

[AXracing]

Hey Fubsy,

There was no offence intended and I am very much a bike fan my self. It's a reminder for people to look out for bikes as a fair few of my friend have been hit by cars over the years. My fathers best friend was killed and my friends farther was paralyzed so it is something quite close to me. The photo was on a bike forum some time ago and just thought as it was a Saxo it would do for here. Though I am confused as to why you posted this addressed to me on a open forum? If the photo has offend you could just send me a PM explaining such and I will happily change it. Or if you don't wish to talk to me you can always contact a moderator direct and they will sort it for you. I will change it anyhow to stop any argument

[SaxoVTR2008]

AX i dont think anyone is finding it offensive, just wondering what actually happens in it?

[frankie]

deffenitly agree with ryan.

ax's post are very imformative, i dont he set out to offend.

Maybe i am, and i agree about ur first comment he probably is, but wtf at the pic? It's not funny at all? :S Maybe i should change mine to a chav beating an old lady for £5?

[Jay_]

he has now explained.....

[Ryan]

Maybe i am, and i agree about ur first comment he probably is, but wtf at the pic? It's not funny at all? :S Maybe i should change mine to a chav beating an old lady for £5?

Last time i checked there wasnt a rule that said every avatar has to be something stupid/funny/amusing...

Its all how you interperate it tbh.

[Saxo-SX]

I can see what you mean now.

If you added the yellow "think" logo I think this would help get the message/peoples understanding of the photo accross better.

Its good to make people think about bikes though :y: I had mine for 2 years and It is quite nerveracking sometimes driving by junctions

[coleman258]

AXracing i dont think there is any need to change it, as it has been like that for a long long time and i have never seen any one be bothered about it until now, its an avatar....

[Mochachino]

Maybe i am, and i agree about ur first comment he probably is, but wtf at the pic? It's not funny at all? :S Maybe i should change mine to a chav beating an old lady for £5?

Its not meant to be funny? lol, do you find mine funny?

[Saxo-SX]

Its not meant to be funny? lol, do you find mine funny?

How comes you got so many stars?








;)

[frankie]

i think where all sorry to hear about your accident, and glad you made a good recovery.

but, you need to chillax its only a small picture which very people take little notice of anyway....

for 1 it doesnt have any boobs in it...

[Fubsy]

At least you're ok.

Thanks lol :D . Well i plan on having fun in mine! Shall be very bike aware tho! :D

[Saxomatic]

Brilliant suggestion :y:

Hey m8 i wasnt causing an argument sorry, maybe i should of Pm'd i was just wondering wtf it was all about and yes from my point of view its showing a moron just pulling out infront of a bike and maybe being in my current situation i took it more personaly than perhaps i should of sorry :(. altho some ppl on other less grown up forums would find this very amusing! " Look hes about to get total'd etc " I am sorry for causing a problem I really wish i had pm'd u before posting this as like i said earlier from ur posts u do seem like a genuinly nice guy :D

[Fubsy]

Brilliant suggestion :y:

Agreed and dont remove it now i know the reasons behind it if anything happy slap me for no pm'ing u asking u personaly!

People should watch out for bikes alot more than they do. It's scary how many times me, my uncle, my aunty and my dad have been put in dodgy situation's due to car driver's lack of simple observation.

[AXracing]

No worry Fubsy. I can see where your coming from so have removed the picture now anyhow :)

both sets of road users need better education, you often see bikes going down the outside of traffic when junctions are approaching, all it needs is the person to pull when the bike is sitting out high in the blindspot and then the problems occur!

[RichM]

I've always thought what it was about too and kind of random lol and to the OP, I can't see where it says/shows how it's funny tbh.

You're right, yes. There are some idiot's on bikes. But you tend to find that bike rider's still look out for each other and when they're in their car they're alot more concious of both car's and bikes.

Most people who don't ride bikes generally never think about them.

Plus another thing to consider when riding a bike is you also have a better view of stuff infront than in a car. You're sat higher and have no pillar's blocking your view. Just seeing behind which is more awkward. Especially with how small modern mirror's are.

Totaly agree 18 years of riding and the amount of idiots i came across, I know were all only human but some people simply shouldnt be on the road! :S

However ive also seen idiots on motorcycles :)

[Fubsy]

No worry Fubsy. I can see where your coming from so have removed the picture now anyhow :)

Feel really bad now m8, can get the admin to get the ban hammer on me if u like? :'( Nar but seriously espeacily if u was trying to make a good point sorry m8

[Ryyy]

Yea ;) could all sit at home giving each other the nod lol, Shall miss bikes :( family wont let me ride another after seeing me like that cant say i blame them need something else to fill it any surgestions? Doctor said no trampoleneing Bungiee jumping or parachuting for a long while yet so those are ruled out! :(.

[Fubsy]

Thread is fairly invalid tbh.

Not really should be renamed biker chat now tho ;)

This ul make u laugh the first week i was ever legal on the road in sat at a major ring road waiting to pull out check my mirrors ready to pull off and theres a car flying up behind me i knew it wasnt going to stop but tryed to accelerate away to late tho ofc. anyway to cut a long story short the women jumped out and said! " im sorry i couldnt put my foot on the break as i have new shoes on!"

I mean wtf? lol wasnt funny at the time but wat an excuse! :S

[Fubsy]

Same dude. Especially on the motorway!!

hehe :)

[Ste]

I liked AX's avatar. I want it back.

[Gordi]

i think by seeing the avatar it if anything makes you think. shit yeah i will watch out for bikes! it more like an advert showing a incident that could happen so makes you more aware. dont see why people would get offeneded by it. the adverts on the tv for driving 30mph are much worse!!

the pedo bear avatars are worse:p

[saxo-Richie]

I've seen/been in a few bike accidents myself... and his avatar did put the point across.. as that happened to me! old lady in a pug pulled out of a side road and BOOM over the bonnet! Sad times! luckly not to much damage to me, but my NSR was wrote off :(

But some of the lads i ride with tend to take the piss tbf, ride a bit wild for the road conditions etc!

[Matty_Mills]

My avatar on another forum is Joeseph Fritzel.....

Doesn't mean i lock my kids in a room and rape them.

Its an avatar....

[Paul]

I've always liked the avatar, i think it makes people 'think'.

Especially the younger members of the club, who've just passed their test.

AX, maybe put "Think" on it in yellow as someone suggested earlier on in the thread, then set it as your avatar again?

[Mr_X]

I thought it was a good avatar. Noobs bossing people around :S

someone needs a life

[Steve]

axracing - man of mystery.

Could have just pm'd him asking him.

[Fubsy]

Who was bossing people about ? I simple wonderd what it was all about I've also appologised for posting the comment in a thread instead of pm'ing him.

Now i know the reason it was there i also think he should of kept it :)

[Fubsy]

I also had a life prior to being wiped out by a car ta :)

[Saxo-SX]

Nobody was getting offended.

People just didn't understand the picture. It could also be seen as someone purposely pulling out on a bike ...which was mentioned by the OP.

Now it has been clarified what is happening in the pic, I dont think anyone has a problem with it, infact I actaully think its a very good avatar now I know the meaning of it.

+1. If you cant be bothered to read the thread and work out the situation has been resolved, your comments on this thread being pointless are invalid.

Laziness.

[Saxomatic]

Thread should be closed now to be fair.
