Hopefully somebody sees the clip and can identify this idiot to the Moscow road police. From what I've read they tend to use their fists and batons first, then ask questions of the miscreant. Its just a matter of time before he kills somebody with these stupid stunts.

We used to see these "Crotch Rocket Commandos" back in Fla running I-95 on the back wheel @ insane speeds.. If they crashed, there would be a hard time to find enough for a DNA sample.

I'm more into cruising on my Old Harleys & looking Good.. (if I say so myself)..

As much as I like Harley's, every time I think I'd want one, I come back to that day on I-40 when I had a rider die in my arms. He got pinched into the guardrails by a truck that just never saw him, I was calling for fire and rescue before he stopped flipping, but nothing could be done. People who take insane risks on bikes eventually end up dead or lying in a bed staring into space while their families wonder about what might have been.

Yep, I've seen some bad ones & been banged up as well. But been riding over 40 yrs.

A person can get run over walking across the street.. Gotta do what you love.
