Who was the loopy?

coming towards Carterton this morning on his red hugeassed bike doing a wheelstand whilst passing a car? musta been doing about 100

I was heading the other way and couldn't believe what i was seeing. i must admit - i was impressed!

I hope that person has lived to tell the story *L*

doll...no disrespect....but often when someone see's someone doing something they can't and and are unable to know the margin of error involved... a wheel stand past a car like that is like doing a wheel stand and a car drives past the opposite direction...
dong wheelies is a piece of jammies and is pretty safe...

It always makes me larf...when people are being held up by slow drivers coz they like to drive quick...and spout of at how they are stupid this and slow that person is....then someone flys past them and makes them look slow...suddenly that person is a maniac!!! funni....because people often don't see far past there own abilities when making judgments on someone else's...called tall poppy syndrome ?....
so often people with great talent in this country a scorned because they are better or more experienced than the average...and by expirenced I don't mean years doing something....I mean that as in ability...because my granfather has being playing cricket longer than stephen flemming but that don't make him better at all....and you see references to that daily on KB...with some riders that have been riding since the wheel was first invented giving argument/advice incorrectly because they believe there experience in lenght of time is better than out right skill and ability...anyway...enough of my bullshit....

ps:not really getting at you here..or any paticular older riders..just sprang to mind when I read this post
