Don’t get me wrong. Stunting is awesome. Wheelies are awesome. I suck at them, maybe can hold one for 10 seconds when my bike was geared differently, but even those 10 seconds … the rush I got [everytime] was indescribable. Always wanted a stunt bike, but it was always 2nd on the list so I never got one. I can only imagine the rush you get by riding one for minutes.
My issue is not with the wheelies … it’s the blatant disrespect and endangerment of other riders by purposely “owning” the entire road.
I’m not one to wish injury on anyone… but what they did was taking others lives into their hands. There could’ve been babies in those vehicles, and even the best stunters fall sometime.
