Bad Bad Bad!!!

Things that don't fit anywhere else...

Postby angib » Sun Feb 19, 2006 6:19 pm

OK, seeing as how I've changed the subject of this off-topic thread to 'on-bike videos', I'll give you guys another one, from Japan:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-MtXymQkjs

Now anyone with a weak heart shouldn't watch this and all you Merkans might need to know that lane splitting by motorcycles is allowed in most countries of the world except some US states and Switzerland - although in most countries it's only tolerated where motorcycles are slowly filtering through stationary or slow-moving traffic. That's not true in this video....

Chris :D

The tension between what is good enough and what is beyond that creates the space for character to become our work.

Two 350 pounders, one teardropper, and one door? Sounds bad enough, but nothing a tub of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter couldn't fix. Sounds like Fabio's dream.

California allows lane splitting. The first time I saw somebody do it, it freaked me out. I was just sitting in traffic and this sport bike zooms by, a few inches from my mirrors.

I just watched the vid clip and was dissapointed that there wasn't a smoking pile of twisted metal at the end.

I'll keep my cruiser in one lane at a time, thank you very much. That is just ludicrous. He had me scared sittin' here watchin' him.

KH,
Glad to see you drop by on the weekends to get the Thread back on track for "Bad Ideas for a Tear Drop". How about this one?

8 Quarts of 15 bean soup in a Dutch Oven, and no Fantastic Vent Fan to evacuate the flatulence. :gas:
