> You know, as bad a reputation as sportbike riders get sometimes, in my 6 years of riding experience I have had only a very few select times where I put myself in a shitty situation that could have ended badly, and it never involved me potentially hurting anyone else but myself. From my experience, most of the time its some shitty driver that just is not paying attention to WTF they are doing. Hope the guy is ok, most likely he’s not. 😕

its not just sport bikers, its everyone. i have been riding for a month now which has caused me to be more aware when driving but also i see asshats every day ride like they are the only ones on the road like a group of about 5 doing about 90 through the 198 in the middle of the day this week.

on the way to my girlfriends, i watched some guy prolly mid 40s - 50s going down twin cities weaving in his own lane and then suddenly cutting over infront of a car with no signal or anything. luckily the car was paying attention or the guy would have been thrown off and run over.

Just thought i’d add to this thread… I just got notice that in roughly the same spot, someone on a sport bike tried to wheelie through the intersection, successfully dumping in the middle of it. This was about an hour ago.  
That’s all I know at this point, so I’ll let others post more details of the asshattery.

edit: apparently he’s fine minus the lack of skin on his hand, and lack of functioning brain cells.
