Road Rage!
That's interesting, Log!
I take that you think that the North American and Canadian Motorists are more tolerant of each other on the roads than they are in Great Britain?
I regularly watch the U-Tube Videos of those regions above, involving Motorists, Truck Drivers, and Harley, etc, Motorcycle Tourists, and they seem to get on very well together?
Over here, I do notice that it depends upon the particular area I am travelling on my Bike.
My Hereford City and Herefordshire Roads are blessed with Motorists and Heavy Truck Drivers who seem to take great care to observe me, indicate, and give me a wide berth when overtaking, for which I thank them, (the same as I do when overtaking Cyclists), whereas, in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, we Motorcyclists take our life in our hands amongst the locals when traversing the county roads....

One of the many treats of Motorcycling, is the skill of observation and anticipation, which hopefully will keep us safe...
...we don't have a protective cage surrounding us!
Each morning, I check the weather, and if it looks "nice", I tog-up, and go for a gentle ride around the County to admire the beautiful scenery, and return in time for Tea and Crumpets!...

I tried fitting my new throw-over Saddle Bags to the Bike this afternoon, but its difficult to find places on the frame to secure them, to stop them swinging about...lots of elastic Bungee Straps required!!
Onwards...
