Was outside my sister house last night and she lives on a corner plot where a lot of people (chavs init bruv) try and drift round the corner.

Ive seen better attempts from my 70 year old Grandad in his electric powered wheel chair to be honest

Any way a few bikes decided to join in and neither of them were wearing any real protection just helmet t shirt trainers and jeans.

My sister friend turns up just as one of these bikes comes up to the corner

I made a comment about how much it would hurt if they fell off and i would laugh so hard if they did..............................

And Boom!!!! He stakes it big time right in front of us and slides a few yards down the road.

Maybe this one at least will think about wear something a bit more protective as judging by the way he was holding his arm and the rep you Ozzy guys have I would have said it hurt like f**k!!!!!!

well...finish the story...did you laugh so hard?? or did you go running to help?

cause if i'd stacked it and somebody laughing at me i'd slap 'em lol :D

If he had been wearing the correct protective wear and not tearing up and down the damn road trying to showing off I would have been a bit more sympathetic

Just like to now what they think might happen when there bear skin makes contact with the tarmac at 50 60 70k cheese grater salt and lemon to the cock would be a 1000 times better i would think but alas its not cool is it????

Sorry to say it but you can only laugh at complete morons

reminds me of some twat in the safeway carpark on chapel st. P plater in a 180sx flogging it round with his mate n some underage slappers as passengers. He comes round the corner hard, around the speed humps, tries to rip a handbrake to stop next to a 4WD n bang ran straight into it. I sorta felt bad for him when he started crying but then I remembered how funny it was n kept laughing

agreed. Some people think because they see someone fall off and are on a bike then they for some reason deserve more sympathy. Not me! If they are acting like tools then they deserve what's coming to them, same goes for a person in the same situation in a car. And I have no sympathy for any bike rider that gets on a bike in anything less than kevlar jeans or proper bike riding gear (read leathers or soft shells) the amout of times I see douches riding around in shorts, t-shirts (or singlets) and runners is rediculous, sometimes they still wear their gloves!

I know it can be hot out there some days but to me, getting on a bike without the right gear is like getting in a car and driving it with no seatbelt, sure you're fine if nothing happens but the minute you get hit or hit something, you're getting creamed! Should be a law against it IMO

got a mate who rides n he never goes out without the Kevlar jeans, boots n jacket. He told me he'd rather arrive dripping in sweat rather than in a body bag. I was considering a bike but being witness to several bikes being cleaned up by cars recently has changed my mind

Did you film it?

Videos of squids hurting themselves is usually hilarious. For instance:

No throttle control, terrible balance and only waring helmet and gloves.

here's an even funnier one, great music to go with it too lol.

A couple of years ago I saw someone pulling a long mono on a high powered bike. He was screaming through the gears and was doing over 150 (60 zone) when he flew past me. (I was walking). A ute coming the other way started a right turn. The bike would have been 100 metres away when he started to turn. Still mono-ing, he hit so hard that it spun the ute 90 degrees.

It took me half a minute to walk up. The poor bastard in the ute was in shock and was just getting out. I stepped over the guy on the bike/ground, to go and console the guy driving the ute and to say I would be a witness. I didn't even look at the POS on the ground. Later, I was disappointed to discover that he didn't die. But he was paralysed. From what the cops said, his driving/riding record was pretty spectacular.

Dude, ouch. You might want to go talk to someone, you sound like a sociopath.

If I am then I'm happy to be it. I've ridden bikes for years, and owned a Ducati at the time. I can't stand riders like this. Saturday morning, main drag, 60 zone. Anyway, I assumed him to be dead and was more concerned with the poor driver who looked....began to make a safe turn....and couldn't work out where the bike had come from.

If it's a sin to have no concern for people who happily endanger the lives of others and then ruin their own lives, mark me as guilty.

(and btw, I'm not sure sociopaths go out of their way, to offer to be witnesses. If I hadn't, the driver could have been accused of making a dangerous turn, which he did not.)

I would have will do the same thing and had it not been for someone that had done this for me i would not be here today after a 100mph head on crash that left me trapped in a car while it burnt around me and my friend

What made me laugh was the guy actually said to the police on the phone after he put the flames out ÿes theres another casualty but i couldn't careless about him as he coursed the crash.

What an idiot! I would laugh at him! He deserves it. People who ride without gear don't deserve to have skin, they are that stupid.

Unless I have been going at a walking pace, I have NEVER not worn gear on a bike. As we say: All the gear, all the time.

    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.  
    • Maybe you should do some more reading.  Google positive effects of ADHD and you'll get your answers.  One of my personal downsides of ADHD has been talking before I think.   Maybe you have it too?
    • Excuse me for butting in....but which part of ADHD can be considered a superpower? I would have though it far more likely that some ASD comorbidity is more likely to be contributing to an ability to hyperfocus on something. ADHD being aimed somewhat in the other direction. My shed looks like your shed. My whiteboard list of unfinished projects has entries going back 15 years. I know what you're talking about - I just struggle to connect ADHD to the results being discussed.
    • Thanks for reaching out!  It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.  I'm undiagnosed but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see it in me... I have more half started projects laying around my house, shed, garden, etc taking up space and money, destroying aesthetics than if I added up all of my mates projects together. But, ADHD gives me the ability to hyper focus on things that no mere mortal could even  comprehend.  A recent pool build is an example of that....  I dont know anyone else that would be dumb enough and focused enough to take on then complete something of that magnitude. I call ADHD a superpower but it can equally be completely destructive if not controlled and focusedon the right places. Addiction is a major concern to ADHD people and thankfully my addictions have been no worse than projects, XBOX, chocolate and being an arsehole! It's often hereditary and my 13 year old son is currently learning how to drive it at the moment. Keep lurking! If i can finally finish this bloody thing at some point it will be a win for all of us ADHD'ers! 🤪
