    if youll re-read my comment, yes, he did win. but after riding amazingly well, he has to stuff it up by letting his wheelie go too far back. went from hero to zero so damn quick, it wasnt funny.

    the really happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery when on a detour.

    True - I missed that he won. Just got him spilling it after passing the finish line.

    I am sure someone would have been laughing - if only just a little bit.
    It is preferential to refrain from the utilisation of grandiose verbiage in the circumstance that your intellectualisation can be expressed using comparatively simplistic lexicological entities. (...such as the word fuck.)

    I wheelie for my own enjoyment. Stuff everyone else.

    Wont do it near anyone though, dont want to scratch my baby.

    Edit: I believe the wheelie crasher was Jared Love on his Ducati after winning that race.

    Pretty much everyone defending stunts say that they are safe and that they have the skills to pull them off. I cannot remember reading many saying "yeah I stunt, but I dont know what Im doing"

    Again - you guys are taking my post more serious than it was intended.

    I was commenting on the timing of the TV show with some threads.

    The comment "So - next time guys get it video - if anything goes wrong at least you can sell the syndication rights of the footage " I thought made it obvious that there was some humour in there.

    Personally - I dont give a fuck if people wheelie, stoppie (sorry I only know the names of 2 stunts) or whatever - as long as they dont do it next to me.

    What made me laugh was mainly the timing considering I had just read threads about this kind of thing, and the large number of comments about how the people doing it all have skillz etc etc and that they wont get hurt because 'they' all know what they are doing (yeah right). Note that this goes for the guy that was speeding also - not just captain stunter.

    Now - on a bike Im pretty much a nana. In a car (and I have had some seriously fast cars) I was a total fuckwit. So I'm not casting stones at people doing what they want when there are no others around (although I probably have in other threads before I sat back and though about my time on the road as a whole).

    But it did kind of bring it home that things can go wrong - esp if there is more than one person pushing it a bit.
    lol...my comment was just a cheap sarcastic dig....from another thread...all gud my man!! lol
