What set me off is many, if not all, of his Rider Clinic posts were him describing some incident that occurred while he was riding, then telling us how he got out of it, but never realizing he caused it to begin with. And a complete refusal to learn anything new. He just wanted everyone to pat him on the back. Much of what he stated as facts were wrong, and when I sent him a link documenting that he was wrong, even on something as clear as lane splitting laws in CA, he refused to acknowledge that he didn't understand and should stop claiming things to be so. (The CA lane splitting bill passed the house, but went to senate and was pushed into committee, but he was claiming it was passed into law.)True Grip said:I just ignored Fred but the majority of his post were something he could ask a cop about. Some kind of injustice to him.
Some California stature that he would blow out of proportion. His first post he bagged on Baja Designs about a light that has a lifetime warrantie before calling the company. I think we figured out Freds true colors.

Well, he was last online 20 minute ago. That tells you something, doesn't it?EricV said:I would not be surprised if he responds to this post, having still not actually left, just lurking.

+1arjayes said:Man, you guys can be brutal. What started as some pushback from EricV (probably deserved) quickly turned into a full-on lynching. Trust me, I'm not a particularly tolerant person, but this place is way too monolithic. People on the fringes are driven away pretty quickly. FredBBG is/was an avid life-long rider and active poster. What's not to like? He definitely has a different take on things, but on this forum I'd take his contributions any day over the usual drivel.
I disagreed to some degree with almost everything Fred posted, but I enjoyed reading his posts anyway. He's a character. Give him a break - he works in Hollywood, what do you expect? We can't all be former motocross or flat-track racers.
Disagreement and pushback, debate, even getting a little nasty at times is fine and healthy, but outright banishment is a bit extreme, don't you think? Most guys here are husbands and fathers and sons, real people, good people. You boys should be ashamed of yourselves! Lower your expectations a little and exercise some patience. Otherwise the human race will disappoint you every time.
