| I'm sorry to upset anyone but 6.5 years for that was a joke. He should have got life in my book. As motorcycle riders we know how vulnerable we are when fully alert let alone when we have substances in our bodies that are proven to impair reactions and judgement.
The bloke got off very lightly in my book. Shame the same couldn't have been said for his poor pillion.
I have no allegiance when someone takes the p1ss. I would still chin a 'compatriate' in a helmet if he risked my life too much through selfish, idiotic and downright dangerous riding as much as I would a car driver.
Still a fact of life that we as motorcyclists are blanketed and deemed to be reckless roadusers regardlesss of how the majority of us ride or how many courses we've been on to improve our skills.
These types programmes just grab the worst examples and glorify them. The same is seen on property programmes where they geefully show complete idiots lose thousands. 'We' as a race don't want to see steady, 'prudent' programmes. 'We' want to see the obscure, out of character activites or so TV producers would have you think.  |
