You’re right, it’s none of my business, the fearful such as yourself can wear face masks, shields and disposable gloves for the rest of your lives for all I care. What I do object to is people trying to silence debate, all too prevalent among the woke left. There has also been reference in this debate to small children being made to wear masks for the protection of fearful adults, even though they’re at virtually zero risk. That has to be the ultimate act of cowardice.

You keep referring to this article as a debate, it's not a debate, just because a few senile members with nothing else to do, have hijacked the posting and choose to talk nonsense and carry on talking about  unrelated issues you think it's a debate.   

The article, this posting is about an antagonizing guy begging for mask wearer's to ditch their masks.

More than likely a Thai basher.  

I reckon most Thai Bashers have evolved from a bad relationship, someone who has been burnt by an ex wife (bar girl) that he has had to marry for visa requirements, now they are bitter with Thai's and angry with themselves.   

I am worried about this Rooster guy, he seems unstable, I have concerns for his mental wellbeing.  

The comments on AN forums are always about assumptions, speculations and hypothesis, I'm joining the club.

Lots inspector Clouseau's and Columbo's here.   

BTW, all you fatties (there's lots here, breathing in the filthy polluted air, anti mask wearer's) stop eating that pizza, pretty please, ditch the KFC......now that's a debate?

Go ahead with your story telling, all you creative writer's.

I rode IOM circuit and you can imagine how scary it could be not learning and knowing what bend is coming up. 

 

Standing at the Post Office is an experience of speed, you look and see the bike coming over hill and the rider and bike goes pass where you standing in the blink of an eye and is gone in a flash.

 

Creg ny baa corner where the pub is was our favorite place to watch. 

That would be an experience, it's great to be so close to the action, just got to be careful where you are, not too close to the action.

I'm a big fan of the Bathurst 1000, ever since I was young. It's a car race, V8 super cars, nothing better than getting next to the fence by the track, the rumbling, the noise, it's breathtakingly awesome.

For Thais Only.

That is fine,  IF theThais can speak all the Foreign tourists Language right.

What's the good of having a tour guide if one Can't Understand him/her.

The Thai's have been proactive in accommodating the Russians. Here in Pattaya, many Thai's have taken Russian language course and busineses displaying lots of signage in Russian.

I'm sure there are many Thai tour guides with Russian language skills.

The Russians are becoming annoying, I see a few in the gym and other places working as trainers and other professions

All of them, you have to be a fool to get on a bike in Thailand.

This is a typical statement from a rider that is, inept, unskilled, Incompetent or frail, someone that is frustrated that they can't enjoy the pleasures of riding a motorcycle.

I'm OK, bike riding is not for everyone and it makes me feel safer when the inexperienced are not on the road.

I've got good friends in their 70's, over 50 years of experience, still enjoying riding their bikes

In case you missed it, it's already a couple of years old:

 

Thanks, I hadn't seen this.. Crazy guy.

Bloody annoying for the other road users, having this idiot riding at speed, noisy bike whizzing past.

Come to think of it, these bike riders annoy me, they creep up at speed without warning and go past in a sonic boom.

It's not too bad for me but I feel sorry for the Thai ladies, they scare easily, I bet they get the shock of their life.

I've got Termignoni's on my Ducati's and I always try to ride past other road users so not to fright.

I reckon some of the noisy riders get of on scaring the innocent and frail.

Yes still alive a Swedish guy in his 50's and a father of 2 last I read. 

 

There were many copy cats Vids. 

 

He used a souped up Suksuki GSXR1000R and later rode a turbo charged Busa. 

 

The one I thought was crazier was a Russian guy on an R1 in traffic it's available on Utube as are many.

 

Oh a Swedish guy, I didn't know that and still alive, lucky guy. 

I watch a lot of bike races, superbikes, motogp, motocross but can't watch Isle of Man, those narrow streets, rider just needs to make a slight mistake and it's lights out.

Here's a good legit one. In a truck turning right off a small soi onto a soi with speeding drivers. Looking left and right for clear traffic, all clear to right long way down, look left and wait for car to pass, as you hurry to turn you've got 2 MB's super close to you on right. I can't turn and they can't see oncoming traffic.

I reckon the most stressful job on the planet, a Thai truck driver.

Foreigners on minibikes bobbing and weaving down Soi Buakhao looking unsure of where they are going or maybe where they've come from

Yep, foreigners on motorbikes are my biggest concern when riding.

I've been riding Thailand for years and have become familiar with the Thai riding techniques.

Foreigners are unpredictable, never know what they are going to do, I keep well away from them.

Bad cyclists, bad scooter riders, bad small motorbike riders, bad big bike riders, bad car drivers, bad truck driver, bad bus drivers, bad lorry drivers and you pick on bikes. ????

Did you read the OP, it's about bikes.

I agree with you though, the bikes are my least annoying on the roads.

You’re certainly no fan of free debate! The cancel culture personified.

I'll give you an example...

OK, I'm going to assume that you are fat (you are anti mask so you have no regard for your health, out and about in the pollution, maskless), I approach you and tell you to ditch the processed food that you are eating.......it's none of my business.

It's not debatable, it's UP to YOU

You're out of your mind mate.

This is not a debate.

It's you wear a mask or not, it's no one's business but mine if I wear a mask.

The OP is asking PRETTY PLEASE ditch the face mask. 

Up to bloody me if I ditch the mask, mind your own business. 

CygnusX1, You need to re educate yourself, subjects that are worthy of a debate

I see all of the haters have woken up.

Good morning, Grumpies

That reminds me of this video which I saw a couple of days ago:

 

 

I'm not a fan of bikers riding dangerously on public roads, I remember there was a guy 'Ghostrider', doing crazy stuff on the road, is he still alive?

Anyway, the guys on my video had the highway shutdown, it looked good, the other bikers gave him clearance to show off. ???? 

At times I see videos of bikes racing around, dangerous speeds on public roads, in and out of traffic, etc, I tend to turn off these videos, I don't enjoy watching at them.

You tried being the hero making a stupid statement below.

The mask wearers are getting a bit huffy. Grow some thicker skin if you can't take a little criticism. 

You are confused dude

Mind your own business, people wearing masks are not getting a bit huffy, it is their prerogative, it's upto them.

Why the criticism, there's no need for it, leave us ALONE.

I would be out of order saying that the non mask wearers 'grow thicker skin'.

You are not funny.

You are out of order.

This immature 'Rooster' needs to grow up and stop causing conflict between members by posting childish articles.

AN mods shouldn't allow this rediculous article.

PRETTY PLEASE, Mods, remove this unintelligent, mindless, ignorant article.

I reckon this Roosters intention is to antagonize, he should be given a warning, a suspension for disturbing the peace amongst members.

The guy has lost it!

You better halve that medication, you're waffling.

Oh, I get it now, you're a fat person and I've offended you.

Too bad.

I've got a few fat mates that have your attitude, they say I'm wasting my time being healthy, the banter is endless, always asking me to the pub.

My days sitting at the bar for 6 hours talking crap are over.

I'm enjoying being healthy, not waking up with hangovers regularly.

I keep telling them to mind their own business.

I don't like drunk riders.

On the other hand, it seems many big bike riders take it easy

Yep, I'm a bike bike rider.

Got 2 x Ducati's 1198 and 1262cc, I take it easy.

I do the stupid stuff on my PCX.

This is COOL and the song, best band in the world playing. ????

And yet there are still some Farang mask wearers in Pattaya....They just cant let go of the face diaper....  

Not all 'farangs' in Pattaya are obese, some look after themselves and their health.

At times, the air we breath is poor quality, it can be unhealthy, especially when riding a motorcycle.
