Wheelies through a village is just plain stupid-as is thrashing past a pub at high velocity on the back wheel-pure madness-it made me cringe thinking that I was going to see one of them die any minute.

nothing wrong with it to be honest. OVertakes seemed safe apart from the lorry on the left... but i'd take that too at the right oppertunity.


Some of you lads need to remember what it's like to be young again.

Absolutely! They have yet to progress from just riding in the centre of their own lane.

Lines on the road completely are different to a track, and as for hazard perception......................I suspect they will be scraped up at some point, just hope they dont take anyone with them!

If it means riding like that some of em an't going to be old like us, no fun, no family , no loved ones only those that will visit your gravesone to place flower. We all can see the end result its just a matter of time. Shame to waste a life ,for what, bravardo. *******s would do well to join up and show how much there really want to risk there necks, not other peoples. It wont be them that will have to scrap up the mess or wipe away a tear. Sorry mate can't agree this time . Bad riding is bad riding do you think the other road users are all going to break every rule in the book just to look good on a video. If we all rode like that we would all be banned permanatly from the road or there would be no bike riders left alive in a year. More room for the BHC, now there's a though 4D

not sure i agree Boss..... people ride like idiots and survive to a ripe old age.... and some ride sensibily and are dead way before their time...

Their riding wasn't dangerous... it was quick yes... it was not the smoothest from an IAM perspective.... but there was nothing actually 'wrong' with it apart from excessive speed.
