God bless this guy if he wrecks...

Saw this guy weaving in and out of traffic, speeding and swerving everywhere...i had the camera in the car so i snapped a pic, dude turned around and posed for me too...


check out his helmet, or brain bucket as we riders call it, he wore long pants, but rolled it up, sneakers untied, a t shirt, and no gloves...

Revlis, other riders, Chime in!

I had a bike, and I know how you can feel on those sunny hot as h3ll days, but I still wore my full helmet and my jacket + gloves.

I only left my house without my gear when I was going to my nighbors

I've been riding for years, and sights like this make my asshole clench.


The guy seem young, he'll learn the hard way.

I had a bike, I would never ride with shoes untied and no gloves. I had my jacket on most of the time. Only time I would ride w/o my jacket was a short ride.

Always rode w/ jacket, gloves, helmet, and at least leather boots on...
Wore underarmor underneath, and worked wonders at keeping me decently cool in the heat. Stopping at lights were painful though on them hot summer days

You know what i used to do when it's really hot out but im itching to ride? i put my t shirt in the freezer for an hour prior to riding, let some ice particle accumulate on it, then wear it underneath jacket, this keeps me cool for quite some time. try it....

He is a human strawberry in the making.
A bike went blaring by me on the toll road a few days ago. Made me sphincter squirm. He was doing about 85 weaving through traffic.









On one wheel. Made me want to piss myself.

I used to live at an apartment, i chain my bike to my car's rims. If they want the bike, they gotta cut the Kryptonite lock or steal my car along with it.

Darwinism at work... I went down with my bike a couple of years ago, and my leathers looked like this afterwards..



..imagine if that was ordinary pants

It creeps me out seeing unprotected bikers - sliding on asphalt any faster than 0 mph is not good for your health.
He (and the other squids) will learn the hard way

I'll throw in a before and after shot of my bike too..

Probably not - had a 65mph low-sider that ended up in the bushes 100 feet from the road
