sheesh bikers car do no wrong.


guy died here recently practicing wheelies, ran into a building, 2nd time i've heard of tht over the yrs.

I'm not saying that but "alleging" that this guy was "doing wheelies" prior to the accident has nothing to do with the accident itself. Besides, I have personally been in the situation where I was pulled over by a cop because he got a call that someone on a sport bike was doing wheelies. If a bike came by doing a wheelie at any time during the day, of course, it just had to be this guy after the accident!!!

The only reason that wheelies were mentioned was to "spice" up the story. If this accident had occurred between two cars, it would have hardly made the paper. I'm more interested in the fact that "alcohol was involved" personally. You love focusing on "evil sport bike riders", I one the other hand, have a huge hatred of people who drink and drive. There are no lower forms of life, IMHO! You've read one article where a bike actually killed a person in a car. Let's compare that with the number of drunk drivers who have killed people on bikes? Or even in other cars. I would rather take 50 guys doing wheelies on their bikes than even one of you assholes who just "have a couple beers" and drive your cars home.
