hey mate, it wasnt the gates, it was the control module on the floor in the blindspot.

the moral of the story being that accidents happen when you dont expect them. in the last 30k miles of tyre sliding glory one second on quite easy human inattention cost the most.

agreed b&q = preferable option, but respect for the guts though.

That was no show of guts and was more a show of stupidity. Deserves no respect at all

okay change the wording,

"respect for the lack of self presevation and the lemming tendancies, (a lemming on a bike is marginally less dangerous than a lemming in fiesta)"

impressive but not with cars coming the other way,
i seen Craig Jones a few years ago at rockingham and he came off a couple of times and he was 100% focused on what he was doing and did'nt have to worry about on coming traffic, and that is a profesional who does stunts every day of the week so it just goes to prove how easy it is to make a mistake

I had a friend who used to do this on his bike back in the sixties. Was spotted by the police one day and banned for a year.

the volvo owners as well as other car drivers are more likely to be thinking "What an *******" than crap in their pants

I used to do that on my motocross bike, i could do 5th gear stand up wheelies, stoppies and huge jumps!!

But that was all offroad and the only person i hurt was myself!!

There is no way i'll be doing any of that on my SV, i've left the crazy riding to my motocross friends.

I still love watching other people do stunts, looks cool!

Have you noticed when you watch stunt videos at the end they always show the crashes!!!

who cares what volvo or any othere car driver thinks .. !! i'm sure the bloke who stood on is seat .. wasent thinking .. " i wonder if this upsets anyone .. " lol hes probs thinking i hope i dont fall off.. !!
i was talking about the Buzz one gets .. the excitment .. the thrill .. the rush .. of fear thats hits ya . when performing a death sefiying stunt. i'm sure he knows if it goes wrong .. hes thinking i hope i make it to the hospital .. alive.
at the end of the day we know the risks . hats off to him for the dareing and the balls to do it, i've seen vids of crazy dudes racing the bill at high speeds. wheelies.. stunts.. stoppies.. lol crazy as a fruit cakes.. the lot of them .. but boy they must get such a buzz.. theres plenty of reasons why not to .. and the pit falls . at the end of the day theres them that do or die and them that stay indoors .. .. wayAaup,..... dammit my soap box broke ..

its only my opinion and no way should anyone do stunts on public highways and bayways. its not clever and inocent people may get hurt.
