Calling your fellow riders "********" just ain't right man.

A person does bad stuff to fall into that category and playing with your throttle just don't qualify for such a nasty title.

Dissing your fellow riders might earn somebody that title.
I'm with you Fasted whats with all this self hate? Haven't seen any stupid stuff from the HD riders here, all the guys and girls that ride are cool but sure have seen idiots on sport bikes,lot of them have died on the road and some jokers on jap cruizers that seem to act out the biker steriotype like they have to make up some for not beeing on a Harley.

Nope. A "journey".

And an enjoyable one, at that.

Oh, BTW, it would be "an" old crazy rider. The 'O' in "old", is a vowel.

Don't git up, No Thanx needed.
That's what us ol' "F"ers are s'posed to do, TEACH you yunguns. Your job is to pay attention.

So did you blast the stopsign at 70? Sounds like you were very lucky not to have went down

I was passed aggressively by a chick on a Gold Wing with her man riding bitch and she was flat out flying. When she turned right doing 70 on a 55 she jumped the RR tracks. I was like damn. Thought I was just wussy riding till I saw her flapping over the tracks. There was a State Police HQ like 3 miles away on same road so I just didn't get it. Admit it y'all. There are plenty of crazy riders out there and they ride all makes.

On a bright sunny day add alcohol and it only gets worse.

I got on my brakes but knew I couldn't stop in time. Everyone ended up slowed down and I just drove through to the other side of the intersection.

Been going on since the "Beginning". BUT there are those die hard "Do Gooderz", who sincerely believe, that IF we give up enough of our Freedoms, and pass ENOUGH laws, that we will all live in this totally safe Utopia.
Aint NEVER happened, and aint NEVER gonna happen, NO MATTER how many laws are passed.
We've gotten away from the concept of personal responsibility and making people accountable for their actions and replaced it with the foolish idea laws can control people's actions.
