That's cool and all...but not on the interstate. That's how people are killed. I think it's pretty funny though how every other word was call the cops. |

Having ridden on I-5 in the Seattle area, those guys should consider themselves REALLY lucky. Had anything happened, at least 3 vehicles would have plowed through/over the wreckage. One can always hope that w/the coverage that I'm sure this vid got, the squids learned something. But I'm not holding my breath..... |

Not a good idea to ride like that but,,, (flame suit on) IMHO the people in the car are bigger douche canoes than the bikers. The more I watch the video, the more I cant stand these people in the car. |

Please explain. . . 'cause I might have kicked one of 'em over. . . When these idiots get done ruining your right to ride, don't sit around wondering why no one else will stand next to you. Anyone ever hear of "Track Day". Keep the b/s off the streets, and we will still be allowed there. |

Not to get too far OT but, First: I don't not agree with the bikers actions. I would have not attempted that. Not even on a track. Especially the weaving around and wolf pack riding. As for the peeps in the car. I dont really care for tattle tales. I just don't like their attitude. I am sensing alot of anti-bike malice and ignorance in their words and tone of voice. If I were one people in the car I would have not reacted the same way. Just my opinion. I wasn't trying to stir up crap.

the news report said they got 68 phone calls to 911 about the incident.... These guys call three times that we heard.... so maybe its blown out of proportion a weeeee bit, But I will tell you that being pulled over two nights in a row for "riding in a group" is annoying. More reason to ride dirt every day. |

Sorry Barker, Even I would have called the cops on those idiots. |

Do you think the guys in the car would have called the cops if the girls were not with them? I doubt it. I rode with a sport bike group a couple of years ago with a few wheelstanders among them. We were heading up to Mt. Rainier, only 1 lane each way. It was too much for my sensibilities. |

Hardly surprising though is it? What number Ghost Rider DVD did it get up to? It's a bit like the knee down comments - I admire their brain that has that sort of control, reaction time and confidence to do that stuff, just not where they are employing it. I've sponsored two stunt days at the local drag strip - the kids that invented BMX have got one horsepower per Kg now. Awesome. But 'we' have to supply places for them to do it. |

The people in the car are pussies. The riders should have moved over for the faster cars, or ridden faster wheelies. Inconsiderate. |

Umm, yeah it's stupid -- the whole thing really. Oooo, scary riders. Come on, if someone is doing something you don't like then back off -- that car was chasing them, ironic because of the asinine comments by the people, obviously not riders. The news station is just doing the "how can we scare people tonight?" -- next week it will be aggressive joggers around Greenlake scaring small children and puppies. I never see any videos of the cagers that almost kill me almost every time I ride I5 -- I have a limited amount of sympathy for the whiners in the car. Friggen dumbarse riders too -- not the wheelie part but where they are doing it, and the amount they are doing it. Blocking so one guy can pop a quick wheelie maybe (not smart but hey) but blocking a friggen interstate highway? Thats just asking for problems. This is what industrial districts at 2AM are for -- long roads, no civies, only your own skin to risk. Once again -- big benefit of riding a Buell, low squid ratio. |

Not too many squids, but there are some. I was so disheartened the first time I saw a fat slow kid in shorts and a t-shirt riding a brand new Buell. |

Do we need to start a collection fund to help out our resident sales jerk? Yes I have been playing scratchers, quick pics and mega mil, maybe I just need to start pandering for that vacation villa down in Mexico... I will put a cup on my desk for the villa fund. Y'all are welcome to stay Mi Casa est Su Casa... or something close to that. Note to self, learn spanish. |

Sounds like you need to hurry up and sell that house. Then you can load up the Buell with kilos of blow. Ala Easy Rider. How are you at imitating Scareface? |
