RE: Close Call
Just a couple weekends ago I had this guy *on my **** in a local twisty, he obviously wanted to pass me. So as soon as there was a straight I waved him on and slowed down. Dip**** pins it in the oncoming lane approaching a blind right hander, tries to get back into teh right lane, has too much speed, it pulls him back into the wrong lane, where a car was also making the blind right hander. He was unbelievably lucky that both he and the car screeched to a stop. I rode slowly by thinking OMFG I almost watched that guy get killed.
Read the PACE, learn to ride, stay alive. Otherwise, just don't take me down with you on your way out.
That is all.

ORIGINAL: unrealtrip
In the full video he is seen with his buddies cruising through city streets at 70+ in and out of cars, then getting on the freeway where he is the slower bike at only 140+ catching up to his buddies. Then they decide to turn the street into a racetrack (I know we're all guilty of it from time to time) however he admittingly only has a couple of months riding experience and attempts to keep up with a much faster B possibly A group when he should be doing newbie C group rides. He proceeds to blow the DY, almost get himself and potentially others killed, then just takes off and starts riding again. He continues by riding over his head again and again in nearly every turn and blows yet another DY lucky for him this time with no cars.
