:D:D:D:D Weeksy playing devils advocate again I think. |
me Jools ? would i ever do something like that mate ? :bouncy: |
I didn't watch it cos I thought it was boring but, I saw enough to say: Wheelies in built up areas and past junctions is plain stupid - htf will they stop if they have to? Don't have a problem with speeding - do it most of the time except in an urban environment. Crashing red lights is a big NO-NO and one of the worst violations you can perform. Overtakes on solid whites - bit naughty but, I've done it from time to time so, I can't complain there. Overtakes on corners they can't see round is asking for it. They might continue to get away with it but, I doubt it. Unfortunately, all they do is **** people off and make targets of the rest of us. By all means **** around and have fun but, do it away from built-up areas where others can get hurt and where it's not going to be seen. |
And what's all the knee out rubbish whilst upright? Should go racing and see how fast they are then...or not ;) |

Spot on mate |
Two more statistics waiting to happen!!! It's all good and well doing this on a quiet open road but when you endanger other people it then becomes not funny. |
where were they endangering someone ? Built up area wheelies ? depends if you class a country road and 2 cars as built up i guess. |
Wheelies in a built-up area...how about the pedestrain crossing that they wheelied away from? By definition if there's a pedestrian crossing then there will be pedestrians about and footpaths. It's almost certain the area is a 30. If you fall off a bike in a built-up area where there's pedestrains then there is no telling where it's going to go. 400lb of moving metal hitting a pedestrian is going to be messy. C'mon Steve - it's stupidity and you should know better than to defend. Out in the glf zone - fair play but, in an urban environment??? |
hmmmmmm Tricky one mate.... i'm not exactly defending their actions, but by the same count i'm not wanting to string them up. Honestly, i saw nothing apart from the Lorry undertake that wasn't fair game. He even waited for a gap that i would have personally gone for on many occasions. lol |
Well I agree Steve, it's not exactly urban compared to Reading, but they're still arsing around in built up areas where there are people and other unsuspecting (and unwary) drivers. We all drive cars or vans some of the time and I like to think that I "think bike" when I pull out of a T-junction, but even bikers would probably be caught out by a hard charging Gixer on one wheel |
