why even wear a helmet... the rest of his 'gear' is a joke, he'll be in a world of pain when all his skin is painted on the pavement.
I don’t care how liberated this world becomes – a man will always be judged by the amount of alcohol he can consume – and a woman will be impressed, whether she likes it or not.

First thought was this is the dumbest guy in history. But after thinking about it. The person who took the photo claims that she was travelling on a bus next to him and after seeing him had time to get her phone out and take a photo. When I usually take my hand off the throttle the bike slows down. Does this guy have a cruise control or what????
Also how cold has it been the last few days and he isn't even weraing socks.
I don't know how legitimate this photo is. I hope it is bullshit.

Silly? Yes. Bad example? Yes. Did he die in a nuclear fireball slaughtering millions of kittens? Hell no!

Whats the most they could slap him with? Furthermore since they only have a photo who is to say its him on the bike?

Do they send out a posse with the torches pitchforks and nooses for ppl that drive to work eating breakfast on the way? :roll:

Well they should :kuda:

I have to admit that is pretty stupid and if the unthinkable happens he has no chance of taking averting action.

Seeing as we are on stupid acts, on Saturday taking my lad to Soccer this is what I saw in 15 minutes -

2 mins from home - A bloke riding a motorbike (sports touring) with no helmet (it was cold too), wife said she has seen him before. I was doing 60 km/h and he was doing 80+ and it was a 50 zone
Cyclist filters through to the front and runs a red light, but stops at the next red light 25 metres beyond that, why now
Car runs stop sign
Cyclist indicates and changes lane without looking nearly taken out by car.
Semi trailer (B double) decides my lane is better than his and tries to merge with me.

Just another day
