        And we think its bad when a cager doesn't see us! Its crazy stupid when a bike rider doesn't see a cage on a major highway. Hope he was ok but he's still an idiot. Not even a good story to tell if he ended up ok.
        ? What happened?
        Answer. Well my bike is really fast you see. I only had three options, pretty clear lanes to the left, clear lanes to the right, or the third one which was to look at my buddy and say watch this! I chose the third one.

        BTW the gopro seems to hold up well tossed down the road.

            Sorry, but 140 would do WAY more damage to bike, car and rider that what is shown in that video.

            "I was going so fast I couldn't stop or swerve. Must have been at least 140!" LOL

              Doesn't look like the bike was traveling at 140 mph... maybe 90, 95 mph at best..

              Not paying attention to where you are going and excess speed.. just idiotic.

                  Seen this video. Guy was okay in the end, originally they couldn't get him to wake up after his hospital visit.

                  Dangerous stuff, getting caught up in your buddy(ies) and not the road. Although I'd be a liar if I said sometimes I don't go hard and that I also don't get caught up in my buddy like he did.

                    That doesnt look like 140 to me. MAYBE 100/110.
