Was i the only one that thought that was insanely stupid?!

I mean i'm all for hitting the roads, but damned in the middle of all that traffic. Crossing the middle line, understeering at points. Seems an unessecary risk to me. Not for you but all the other drivers on that road.

He also had a close call at around 1:35. I won't say this often but this is one case I would say keep that **** off the streets and at the track. You wanna run through a canyon or up a mountain, fine. Just don't do it while there's moderate traffic and don't go into the other lane. ****** moron.

I am all for having fun...when the roads are empty!!! Those dudes are fucktards and deserve tickets/arrests/sit in jail for a bit. There is a big diff between having fun on a back road or an empty road and doing that with those families in cars...there was no excuse for that. At any point something could have gone wrong and someone could be killed or maimed...that is not worth some kid spending the next 50+ yrs without his legs working, or worse. Ppl are very fragile...as 20 somethings we do not think about that...but all it takes is a little mistake and someone is really going to live a life of agony.

what was the name of that road? just by looking at the turnout at the end of the vid, I would say thats the road called the dragons tail or something like that. I agree that it was a little too wreckless, it adds to the stereotype for fun to ride roads like that. The bike was smart to pull over and let the cobra lead though, theres nothing I hate more than cars following bikes too close wich is what i would guess he was doing judging by the rest of his driving. The cobra was bad *** and the guy on the bike sure could ride too. fun vid to watch though.

Not the Dragon's Tail...the Dragon's Tail is just fine for such riding...no one in their right mind is going to take their family up the Dragon's Tail...if they do they are idiots.
