Nope - still yet to find a bike obeying the law. Organ donors the lot of 'em

Bikes get a bad press if you don't like them, fair enough.. It's your loss. IMO

I'd love to be able to ride a bike but not enough wheels or metal for my liking

Fair enough. We're all different

I have watched several Motorbikeists riding like this on one wheel. I suppose I should have a go, it looks such fun.

I don't care about him but what about that car he nearly wiped out with his bike

You're supposed to keep your foot on the back brake to control the height ... and stop it 'looping'

 

[Vipar]

Too many like him/her about

I saw some wheeling on the motorway once must have been doing 100mph. Steering by sticking their knees out to various degrees.. Respect

No respect from me I'm afraid. There's a time and a place for everything and a public road is not one of them.

Extremely skilled though.

I feel for The Merc Driver/passengers, he must have been in shock after that.
I hope the police throw the book at that nutter on the bike.
Had it done in front of me once, biker driving on white line centre of narrow hilly road road, pulled a wheelie between me and the car coming the other way in a dip between hills. I nearly shat myself for an hour afterwards, it happened so unexpectedly, but I can still remeber it a clear as yesterday. He looked like a ZZ Top Fan on a chopper style bike...it wasnt funny or cool for me I can tell ya!.

Not the video above. I meant the ones I saw on the motorway. Must have been professional riders, like when they cross the finish line doing 100mph mono wheeling

i just love watching this guy

Would you like to set my mind right..
Why, if you are so anti bikes, did you enter a section of Fun that only has bike related content ?..
Was it just to make none too nice remarks ?

I am not sure the mums and dads / wives husbands friends and relatives of all the motorcyclists through the years who have been killed and injured through inattentive / arrogant / simply bad car, van and lorry drivers will not appreciate the extremely crass comment
Yes, there are fools on bikes, the same as there are fools using every other form of transport, but nasty remarks are rarely made if, for instance, a motorhome crashes .. might take the mick a bit but to call the person driving an organ donor would not be looked upon well on this or any other forum..

Which begs the question 'why is such a remark about motorcyclists deemed acceptable on here' ?

Double hit for me.. Amazing riding AND drone work by Lec Park !

Why is what he said anti-bike? He doesn't say he hates bikes or wants them off the road. There are lots of idiotic bikers who 'are' organ donors, even doctors say it, not the lot of them admittedly but there is a hell of a lot higher risk to a biker becoming and OD than anyone else.

As for entering the bike section of Fun, it came up on the front page, just as it did for me, I didn't go looking for the 'bike' section, and didn't know until you said it that this post was in there as I don't check just as most people don't when replying to a post to see if they are 'permitted' to have a view which they can post.

 

[Puddleduck]

He was lucky to get up and walk away from that. I hope no one else was hurt - could have been multiple casualties.

I am afraid we will have to agree to disagree

I didn't know it was a bike only area and Organ donors are what A&E consultants call them not just me.

That may be so, but they do not come on a bike related section and say it...
And if I posted what I think of the pen pushers ( which are about 90% of the staff ) of most A & E dept I would quite soon get banned !

It is not a bike ONLY section.. as the title suggests it is a section for Motorcycles usually appertaining to Motorhomes , though generally it is pretty much anything to do with motorcycles
I am sorry if I come across OTT or too strong, but having ridden a bike of one sort or other both in a professional capacity and for pleasure for 55 years, off the cuff totally negative comments lumping ALL motorcyclists together will always get a reaction from me
