    I want to apologise to the motorcyclist I had a road rage incident with on Saturday 28th September.

    I was in the car on Baggot street at about 11:45am. I was maneuvering around a car (I did check my mirror and shoulder but didn't see the bike until the last second).

    The bike was a Harley (I think) had saddle bags on and the rider looked to be 40's/50's. He had a modular helmet on. He was wearing full leathers

    I want to apologies for my actions. I should have known better (especially when it comes to bikers). Regardless of what had happened immediately before the incident my actions/reactions were wrong.

    If the biker is on here or if someone knows him please direct him to this post.

    Thank you.

    Just like to say fair play for apologising.
    It shows a depth of character.

    (I've no knowledge of the incident)

    What did you do?

    Apology is a bit empty if you aren't willing to own your actions IMO.

    He knows his actions and so does the other party.

    This isn't confession.

    Seeing as we're on the subject. I entered a roundabout last evening and this knob in a red Suv came flying along flashing and hooting me. I did perhaps enter a tad too early but if he had been doing a normal speed he had no problem. Anyway he exited at the next exit before we got to exchange pleasentries. Like the OP I don't know if you are on boards but hopefully you are and I just want to say that you are lucky you exited when you did!

    I took some sweets from a shop when I was 8 . If the shop keeper is on here I'm really really sorry. It keeps me up most nights. :(
