Motorcycle Cop Slays Obstacle Course: Crazy Clip o’ the Week

Officer Donnie Williams schools all at various motorcycle competitions.

Remember on The Brady Bunch when Greg and Marcia went head-to-head on an obstacle course? To prove who was the better driver, they drove slowly and carefully through the course, trying not to knock over any cones, especially those with an egg on them. OK, now imagine that scene cranked up to 11, faster, harder, and set to Van Halen. That gives you some idea of the scene at the various motorcycle rodeos and competitions that Officer Donnie Williams dominates in. He’s done the Grand Prairie Police Motorcycle Rodeo, The North Texas Motorcycle Challenge, Emerald Coast Motorcycle Challenge, and others.

When he’s not competing, he serves as a hero both on and off the course as a member of the Texas police department motor unit, naturally. But put him on a course and watch in awe shows off his talent for tearing up each course with skill and effortless precision.

We put together a few of our favorite classic clips from Officer Williams’ competitions. Enjoy!
