Two guys racing down a residential street parallel to ours my wife got within about 10 feet of the action...check out page 5 of the Trentonian for the rest of the details.

honestly if they were racing down a street around your house its thier stupidity thats got to be one of the worst places to race.... anyway no one deserves that but im glad they didnt hurt anyone else

yeah my wife had just put the kids in the car, the dudes bike flipped end over end for about a block my wife ducked behind the car as she was literally 10 feet or less from the bike going by her car.

I'm not a fan of motorcyclists to begin with the way most of the guys on the crotch rockets and some harley drivers seem to think they own the road. Riding between cars, the shoulder, popping wheelies. When I see stuff like this I just can't feel remorse or sorry for them. Somehow I'm happy they just hurt themselves and not someone else and they are no longer on the streets terrorizing people.

Glad to hear your wife and kids are ok physically, but that has to mess with someone mentally.

People like that are better off the way they are now before they really did damage on this planet.

I've seen that. Guys who ride between cars are begging to get hit. I dare to say deserve it.

Rich189 12-19-2006 05:22 PM

its wrong to make assumptions about all riders based on a few... i cant say im perfect by any means... im one of the ******** who pop wheelies ect but i make sure there isnt much traffic and its relitivley safe to do so (and only when hot girls are in the car next to me) but i do know a lot of riders who are great guys and for the most part follow all the rules.... the sad part is they seem to be the ones who get hurt and die... obviously not in this case but normally its cars not paying attention that hurt riders


*edit* and i dont ride between cars and **** like that but i see it quite a bit and yes they are begging to get clipped

very true. When I ride mine, I gotta ride with the mentality that all the cars on the road are trying to hit me. I follow all rules on my bike and as in my car. Ask Rob, he gets pissed when i don't run yellow lights or go 10 mph over the speed limit.

Partly due to the fact of being a professional driver and being in a truck all day long. Part due to the fact that I've worked hard to get all the endorments on my license that I have. And part to the fact...well....im just careful by nature.....
