Heard a story the other day...

[White trash]

...from a dude who's started an underground bike racing club with some of his mates.

Small numbers, very exclusive and private and (obviously) hugely illegal.

They reckon they're always on low density public roads, daylight hours and good weather conditions and they don't race the same roads twice in a year. Never bother with track days as it's too predictable.

Now, I'd never heard of this between bikers before and didn't know it existed. These guys could be full of shit but seeing how they rode leads me to believe otherwise.

Anyone here seen/heard/ridden with a group like this?

[gav]

Lets see, that'll be TheOne, KDXAaronR1,umm, most be a couple of other bullshitters in here?

[Jackrat]

And the first rule of Fight club is,,,,,,,,,,

[White trash]

Nah mate, these guy's weren't talking about it, they were doing it. Apparently they weren't members although one admitted to lurking now and then for a chuckle.

He reckons we're a bunch of nanas hell bent on dictating how bikes should be ridden, instaed of actually riding them.

I wanna know if this scenes as big as they said it was or if they're totaly full of shit.

Might make myself some extra coin......

Good job I aint in this particular "Fight club" although, bit od publicity means more punters along with bigger purses. Probably more fatalities too. :confused:

[James Deuce]

Sound like a bunch of dead men walking to me.

[Teflon]

Did they watch Biker Boyz?.

[avgas]

well if coin is invovled they must be a bunch of nana's.
Met quite i few groups like this, they usually are all $$$ no cents.
I taught i few guys in aucks wot a real cafe' racer can do, when they tried theyre dukes on the GB. It was too easy, it was sad.
So if your a good rider (im shit :weep: ), try em out - and if they ban you, you know why :moon:

From experience those who are up to this sort of activities (i.e. the illegal type) do not go around boasting about it. Rather they say nothing and carry it out in general secrity. If this does occur then I would have my doubts about those who are gloating about it. I misbehaved a wee bit when I was a teen and one of the rules was say nothing and trust nobody. In the end the paranoia killed the racing and it pretty much dissolved. We were not on big bikes (2 stroke 250cc) but just there for fun. Its when the poeple who want to be big headed arrive that it all turns to custard. :Pokey:

Shit wonder what gave it away?, was it the thread, 'helmet hair advise'?, 'what prety lights suit my bike'?, or 'i'm feeling queer today i'm painting my bike pink'?.

I still come here for a good laugh, cheers everyone.

Could just be someone who got their license back today :doobey: :2thumbsup :doobey:

Heard from a few myself. Never stays secret for long. The giveaway is when they trade their leathers for a coffin (the 'underground' bit). GuessWho did a song about these people way back - called it 'Road Food' :no:

[NC]

I'd be into it....

[Sensei]

UMMMM . well as long as there are bike's that do 300k there will be rider's that will push their bike's & themselves to the MAX . Have heard that been chased & chasing is very addictive ?? Just as well we all are slow careful LAW abiding rider's on here that don't do runner's from Police etc
:shifty: SENSEI

[Ghost Lemur]

Dunno about the bike scene. But the car scene was around in my parents day. They had a purple Anglia with a 1600 Cortina engine in it. Yes they did rallies, and took it round Ruapuna, but they also did the illigal races at Brighton, etc.

This shit ain't new, I'm sure some of our ansesstors(sp?) did illigal horse racing here and there back in their day.

I don't think vids, or the internet can even remotely be held responsible.

It's like anything. Some people are happy to do a bungie jump once. Others have to go for a tandem skydive, for some the adrenaline only kicks in if they're jumping by themselves. Right to the extreme of base jumpers, and seeing that cliff face/building zoom by at 200kph 2 metres away.

You missed seeing the ground zoom by at 260kph 1 metre away :innocent:

[Teflon]

not sure what would be worse, hitting a harley or a tractor.

[scumdog]

The tractor matey, it's slower and you would never hold you head up if you got hit be one, now a Harley is a different story, it's fast and anyone would sympathise with you when you got hit by one that arrived that quick that you didn't have time to move - sort of a fast tsunami!! :lol: :2thumbsup

[Teflon]

sort of a fast tsunami!! :lol: :2thumbsup

True, both got a lot in common, size, weight and they don't stop.

[Blakamin]

Back around the 80s there was a bit of an underground movement about Auckland to Wellington,and the other way too,around 5.5 hrs was common,but I don't know what the ultimate time was.Not relavent these days as the roads are straighter and many more cops.

[Indiana_Jones]

Did they watch Biker Boyz?.

First you gotta learn how to make riding in a straight line (and if you watch the background they aint going fast) hard. and once you've mastered that then you gotta find a short road or better yet for the ultimate race a dirt road and put on your most agressive face.... and ride in a straight line :moon: :moon: :moon:

[scumdog]

True, both got a lot in common, size, weight and they don't stop.And don't get in the way of any of 'em! (you wouldn't get past them either!) :blah: :killingme
