The chase bike passing the other bikes was another Einstien moment. Not only passing on a blind curve, he took the next curve all the way through on the wrong side of the road.
And people weep for morons when they kill themselves doing stupid stunts like that.
Do a search for V-Strom, one of the first results is a forum for V-Stom riders with a "In Memory of" header. Read the thread about that dudes crash/death a couple weeks ago and read the posts by his kids and tell me if those dudes in the video are worthy of awe or a kick in the ass.

I will get som pics of it todayaps45819 said:a pic of a Tree of Shame at Deals Gap. Know anything about it?
You ain't kidding. Hit it about 0900 this morning. Stayed in 2nd gear most of the time. Some corners are so sharp and banked, you can feel you suspension compress as you go around.Speedy70 said:That road is NOTHING like Skyline Dr.

we used to love the run on the BRP from Cherokee up to 64.
