I was on my way home from work....

[Ausm]

I noticed something coming toward me at a high rate of speed in the pasenger lane. I couldn't really make it out it was small,Tall and skinny in profile.

I thought maybe it could be a kid on one of those motorized skateboards but no way in hell do they go that fast. Well all of a sudden he was close enough to make out.

It was a dude on a crotch rocket pulling a 90 mph wheeley!! I never seen anything like this...He was standing almost straight up to keep the bike from flipping over and he had the baby wound out. He blew past me like I was standing still. The moron was not even wearing a helmet.


That was wild!!

When going 90 miles an hour all the Helmet insures is that they will be able to find ones head after they crash and burn!

It's the greatest thrill of all time... and also the dumbest thing anyone can do in their lifetime.

i've seen people do wheelies from stop lights but never at 90mph.. that's insane

What an idiot. :roll:

Someone's just asking to be bitch-slapped by Darwin.

You said "toward me"...but you meant "coming up behind me", right? Cuz if he was coming TOWARDS you, then I'd be really freaked out.

I'd rather live a short thrill packed life than a long boring one tbh, however doing that at 90 on a public road in traffic is kind of moronic.

I've know plenty of riders who are more than capable of 90mph wheelies in a safe and controlled manner (I've never done more than 60 myself before bottling it), however imo there is never any excuse for not wearing a helmet no matter what speed you're travelling at.

Once saw a pretty hot chick teaching her equally hot chick friend how to do a wheelie in bumper to bumper traffic. They would wait for the cars infront of them to get about 30-40 feet ahead, then one girl would pop a wheelie, and the other one would try to copy. The drivers behind them didn't seem to mind at all that they would have to wait.

seen that before... hopefully one day that is not me.. (closer and closer to getting a bike lately... LOL)

Agreed. There is something to be said for a thrill seeking lifestyle, but theres a difference between that and mountainous stupidity.

Coming aright at me but he was in the left lane.
