Stupidity

I'm driving past one of the local schools here in my cage and I notice a 06' gsxr600 coming towards me, now you have to understand this road is a long sweeping turn so I had pretty clear visibilty down the entire road, I notice his body position lift up a little and then I realize... "wheelie time", he lifts the front and is coming straight at me at about 10 o'clock and then SLAMS it back into the ground goes into a bit of a wobble and controls it and passes within two feet of my car, but there's a stop sign about 30 feet in front of him, oh well, downshifts and pulls another wheelie blowing the stop sign while cars are waiting to turn. All he had was a helmet and gloves, but i'm sure his backpack might have protected him as well.

Darwin will catch him soon enuogh.

had to rant sorry, but stupidity like that makes my blood boil... all to show off to a bunch of 7th and 8th graders..

Wow! The name of the thread says it all.

It's just a matter of time till he gets badly hurt or killed.  You can only ride like that for so long till it catches up with you.  Death is all around you so why invite it in?

I mess around on the roads sometimes, but that is strictlly when no one is around and I have a clear view of whats going on in front of me. I do my best to stay away from public schools all together, not to mention fool around near them. That's a instant doubled fine if a cop decides to write ya up. Definatlly wrong place/wrong time.

its a shame when people who arent any good at things try to show off.... i mean its one thing if you can ride a nice smooth wheelie and stop at that stop sign, its another if yah come down all squrrely and sh*t...

Riding like that a school is a big no no in Texas

It is here in Canada as well, he's just lucky no body got hurt and no police were around to see it. If I had caught his plate I would have called one of my buddies who works local, but it's kind of hard when his front wheel is up in the air
