So wait he only has been riding a street bike for a little while or has been riding his whole life illegally? I’m confused.

Also riding a dirt bike your whole life as a “experienced rider” isn’t the same as a street bike, yes there are some similarities but for the most part on and off road riding is a different beast.

Either way the media always screws shit up especially when they dont have much to go by, then they tend to fabricate the stories a bit to get the readers attention with no regards to victims families.
