Milton Keynes biker banned for 150mph speeding web film

[Qwerty]

Over the years I have owned and ridden my fair share of superbikes..... MV Augusta, Honda SP2, Fireblade, R1, GSXR 750, Ducati 1098.....
.....and ridden to the extremes both on road & track...... but this guy takes the proverbial!

BBC News - Milton Keynes biker banned for 150mph speeding web film


Got what he deserved for risking other peoples lives really. What an idiot :mad2:

To be honest, I see that kind of bike riding (maybe not the wheelies and the 150mph) on a daily basis.

He was on a suicide mission and deserved to locked up for a long time, recently very local to me 2 guys were calculated doing 95 miles an hour on a long empty road when a car pulled out and it was a full impact and rider and pillion died, they were traveling so fast the driver of the car did'nt even see them.

Sad isnt it. That poor car driver has to live with that forever. Tragic

Drives me bloody mad!! Any pratt can get on a super bike and make it go fast, thats what they do. To me there is more skill involved in riding a high powered machine safely. I almost got into a fight last weekend in Brighton because I made some unfriendly hand gestures to a guy on a ZX10R that I almost killed because he was gunning it in heavy traffic.

These idiots give us bikers a bad name :mad2:

I ride my bike every day and it is very hard to keep the thing tame, the temptation is always there to give it the beans but if I want to get my knee down then il pay for a track day and not risk my life and other peoples. Grrrrr!

Crazy rider. Only takes one car to pull out and he'd have been killed. Cars don't see you on a bike when you're going that fast, and even if they do, judging the unusual distance is hard to do. All of a sudden the bike that was a mile away is now heavily breaking right up your arse. Got a bunch of idiots around my way that use the road outside mine (used to be a 60mph, now 30) to test their knee-down skills. One clipped a pot hole with his knee pad and spun himself but luckily was in full gear and just skidded into a kerb. He pulled in at the local pub to get his breath back and the barman wouldn't serve him. Started to get a bit heated so he did one again pulling wheelies and whatnot. They never learn.

On the flipside got a mate who loves his tracks on a bike and he's a good rider. But still on the road its not about yourself there are dozens of risks on every road and after half hour of riding round you've probably dodged death dozens of times.

Marco Simoncelli would be disgusted.
