Gulp.
I love how the speedo won't go over 299 but the bike does

How close do they get to each other? It wouldn't take much to lose it at that speed.

Complete stupidity. But since no one got hurt I guess its OK this time.
Get caught doing that in the UK though and a long stretch inside would await.

Re: Riding like your arse is on fire
I done and seen some pretty stupid shit on a done on a bike but that's was shear madness.. Using the verge like that at 200-300 km, how much debris have you seen out there before? Bits of truck tyre, lumps of wood etc.. It'd just take one thing. If that was my kid I'd crush his freakin' bike!

Well in their defence it wasn't the stupidest thing they did, a pair of the best boots wouldn't have helped them if they lost it at that speed I don't think.Itchy wrote:And in trainers too?

Re: Riding like your arse is on fire
What the hell there seems to be a increase of this sort of riding and to be honest I see why car driver's have a bad name for us. The over and undertakes big the cars buses and lorries would of shat the living daylights out of the drivers if they moved at all that would of been game over for the riders and the car driver would of had to live with themselfs. Absolute madness
