Brilliant !! 2 Darwin Award contenders wearing T-shirts and sneakers. I can't imagine the idea of crossing an intersection at high speed when there just might be a red light runner coming through. These 2 squids ride like the road is their personal property and everyone else better cooperate. I have very little pity when the likes of these riders get mowed down. I do feel for the other folks involved through no fault of their own and abiding by the rules that should keep them safe.

You see at the end he reduces his speed and tucks himself in behind the pickup. On his right you see a cruiser passing him. It's a cop. He got pulled over and he says that the cop was cool talking about how fast the sport bikes accellerate. I wonder if that was while he was writing a ticket for speeding. That cop must have had a thrill splitting to catch him. Not my cup of tea.

I'll bet the cop was giving him enough rope to hang himself. Too bad there isn't a law against being stupid on wheels.

Eek, that made my stomach hurt. I felt the pain of the one biker they zipped by in his/her lane. I hate when inconsiderate riders do that to me because I often move around in a lane. When I see a rider approaching, I will usually wave them through in my lane, letting them know I won't be moving over into them.
