Default What is the crazy thing you've ever done (riding) your bike?

So what is the single most craziest thing you've ever done on your bike? This isn't for the coolest, or most righteous although that line can be blurry.

This is my story that comes to mind:

When I was younger and intolerant (still am) of obnoxious behavior, I was returning a movie rental while on the previous bike. I walked out of the store in the shopping complex and there was an older car with a super loud stereo, worth more than the car, with violent, hateful rap music playing at full volume. I mean REALLY loud, profanities shaking the windows of the stores.

I backed out my bike and around so that the rear end, and pipes, were between the driver's side of the offending car and another. I then revved the **** out of the bike and gave the punk a serious earful.

I then took off with a couple of people nodding in approval.

I used to ( 30 years ago ) occasionally stand up on the seat while going down the road. Not doing that anymore as I am no longer bulletproof.

I was going through a podunk town in Indiana called Sharpton and this guy in a Buick kept speeding past me, then getting in my lane and tapping his breaks. When I would pass him, he would do it again. (I was on an R6) So I got it up to about 90, dropped it a gear and bounced it up on to the back wheel while standing on the back pegs. Right as I passed the guy on the back wheel, a Sharpton sheriff going the other way, cut the lights on and pulled me over.

He jumped out of his car with his cowboy hat and big chew in and said"boy, i could beat your ***, cuff you, throw you in the pokey, and half this bike drug on its side onto a flat bed, but do you know why Im not?"
Me-"No"
Him- "cuz that was the coolest god damned thing I ever seen!!!! Now get that piece of **** out of my town!!!"

He pulled me over again about a quarter mile later and wrote me a ticket for having illegal (flashing) tail lights......

I kicked a car door while patting the top of my head.

I rode a Harley SX175 thru all the hallways (4 story) of my high school. Oh, with half the football team trying to catch me. LOL Losers weren't any good on the field either. Wow, that was all the way back in 1976.
