Commuting Sucks!

[Huzo]

Here in Victoria in Aust. we're trialing legalised filtering
when it becomes a parking lot, lane splitting to us is
cutting through moving traffic and is still illegal.

Prior to the change you'd get the occasional dickhead
who'd close you off - since the change I've only had
people moving to open the way when they know your
coming. I live in a Tourist area though - it might be
different for a commuting to work in city traffic situation.

Anyway, for me it's been a great change so far.

Hi Randy, I'm also in Oz and as far as I know filtering is now legal up to 30 KPH. I'm happy to be corrected but thought this was the case. I'll check now.

If you check it out Maurie, you'll find it's now legal up to 30 kph.

Now that I am retired I don't have to commute. YES!!!

If you check it out Maurie, you'll find it's now legal up to 30 kph.

Fair enough - thought it was still up for final approval.
Don't know that I'd be pulling 30 while filtering, I'm more
like 15 - there are still dickheads and mobiles and and and.

Once it isn't fun, do something else. If I ride into the city I have to either leave early or late, same with the return trip. I sat in stop and go and slow and go on the Norge once, not anymore. Why abuse the bike and myself. I bought a liquid cooled thin bike for that travel when I must.

When it get really warm, the cheapest eco box with a radio and AC is more comfortable than any bike crawling behind cars at exhaust level.

Yep! Last summer, there were many days that I sat on my Norge, with my foot down--on the freeway!!!--and noticed the ambient temperature was over 110 degrees. Once it reached 117 on the asphalt. Welcome to hell!
