Crazy stuff, I don't think that was very smart from the riders but geez the people filming should really get a life!

 

Some of the bikers are really carzy. I was surrounded by 5 of them couple weeks ago on I-5 Northbound. They wanted to race me, but I just ignored them. I don't think it was wroth it to play with them. I didn't have to prove them anything

 

^^292,

did i just see you driving down 148th in bellevue on sunday? a white 996TT got up next to me and waived!

 

Uh, those guys don't have $hit on my buddy...

Skip to 2:40 into this video, these guys block off traffic, "Crazy Chris" simply weaves through it, on one wheel. Jason can contest to the level of insanity that Chris has managed to harness.

Sorry, but those are the kind of guys that give a bad reputation to motorcycles and sport bikes in general and cause us to get pulled over for doing nothing.

 

I wasn't advocating it, but the majority of young riders are hooligans. You're a minority man.

I don't know how many times I've seen dumbass kids riding with flip flops on passing me doing triple digits on 405. There's A LOT of squids around here, which are WAY more dangerous than these dudes, as they aren't even smart enough to wear the minimal amount of protecting.

 

I would just roll up right on the asses of them till they moved out of my way.. I rode bikes for 10 years and those guys are MORONS! Here is what I think....go do wheelies where there is NO TRAFFIC. don't block it out and **** it up so you can have fun. We have fun on the road, but we don't do it to block other people out. Lady in the video is right though, one person screws up and lays down his bike someone is going to run over them and that will do some emotional damage to that person for the rest of their life. STUPID to do it where they did, and how they did it

what i think is so dumb is that at a distance from 272nd in federal way to Southcenter the State patrol still doesn't show up. That is always the same case when I see a drunk driver on the riad and I call them in to the PO-PO too

 

I would have to agree with that. Hey, got any pics of your Ducati? I'm planning on getting my motorcycle license this summer (starting off with something smaller of course) but the bike I eventually want is a Ducati 848 or Triumph Daytona 675. Sorry about the threadjack, but anyways, the person who videotaped and sent it in to the news needs a life regardless.

 

I really wanted to get a DR-Z 400. I come from dirt bikes, so I think it would be a pretty easy transition.

 

Yea, I agree. And if any of you see a guy not driving safe on a red Ducati 748 with a Ducati leather coat, you all let me know ok!!!

 

^^hehe!

 

+1 Bruce!

I saw that piece last night and I have to admit that I too did that crazy crap in my 20s when there was no wife, kids or common sense in the picture and the all too important frontal lobe had not completely developed yet!!

That said, we DID have enough common sense to do it in the empty Boeing parking lot or deserted Snohomish back road. Unfortunately it will take someone getting hurt or killed to wake the rest of the group up.

 

ultimately, the herd will thin itself...

 

I don't think it was me, but I make sure I will honk at you.
