Way to go "infamous 508"

[SteveM]

The riders are at fault in this instance, but FUCK YOU OLD PEOPLE TAKING A LEFT IN FRONT OF US.

Go see the anti-SMIDSY thread. At a closing speed of 80, how much time does anyone have to react?

[jwm2k3]

I know Steve....the rider was a retard....my fuck you to old people was a very.generalized statement...

[shortbus]

Kinda think the police pursuing doesn't help things too, they are driving dangerously, they are clearly not going to stop, all the pursuit will do is add some speed to the mix.

If you get a plate number then use that, otherwise do like Freetown did and shut down the road if possible, dunno just my opinion.

[SteveM]

The police are the problem?

I would not have given a second thought to laying stop strips across the road and giving the whole crowd no warning.

I don't see how Ace's Ride is connected to the Boston Massacre, but they both look like trouble waiting to happen.

Yes, I'm judging.

[shortbus]

Stop strips would have been fine, I just think a pursuit creates more danger with a group of retarded riders like that.

With about $20,000 raised for this event and the posters I have seen everywhere here ( I live in between middleboro and raynham) you would have thought the police would have known what was going on and should have been contacted by the organizers prior to the event to discuss routes etc. of. Of course,, if the intention is to wheelie the whole route, you don't want the cops involved.

I saw the posters and thought "this is gonna be a shit show". I was right.

The organizers are probably in a lot of trouble. Civil lawsuits etc. that $20 G's is going to go to a lawyer somewhere to dig them out of this hole.

Middleboro is a strange town. That's the LAST place I would ever organize a ride through. It's like some Alabama backwoods town there. Many of the residents and politicians are somewhat strange in their behavior. I'm sure when those bikes crossed the town line the phones lit up at the cop shop.

How 'bout the small handful of fuckhats DON'T act like that and let this go off for it's true intention? I dunno, maybe NOT give the cops a reason to pursue?

I think I found a video of the ride.

He was riding a Suzuki, he should be used to jerking off.

hey now...

[DaveZX6r]

Man What a bunch of fu(%ing dick bags! I'm not usually one for wishing harm to fall to people but I honestly think I spent most of that video waiting and hoping for the inevitable wheelie into oncoming traffic or parked car.

[tsorfas]

Now that's a ride to attend! Lol

uummmm, anyone find the song choice for that video slightly ironic considering the outcome of the crash

ACTUAL LYRICS
I'm a sailor peg
and i've lost my leg
i've climbed up the top sails
i've lost my leg!

No wonder so many people hate motorcyclists. I didnt realize there was such a large quantity of douchebags in the boston area on bikes.

[DucDave]

Its really hard for me not to wish bad things happening to every fuckin one of them...

And won't we all be full of self righteous indignation when they finally ban motorcycles completely because of asshats like that. And I may sound 'holier than thou' and admit that I ride fast and agressively at times. But I am always concious of trying to improve the perception of bikers. There's simply no undoing the damage these dikwads created in the eyes of anyone who was unlucky enough to be subjected to their fucking moronic behavior.

Flame away if you want...

Really? You'd be ok with the results of that many motorcycles, going that fast, and what ensued after you put out the stop sticks? Can you imagine the motorcycles, bodies, etc flying through the air when they all started wrecking and slamming into each other? I wouldn't want to clean that mess up.

[Chippertheripper]

Yah, stop strips=flat tires=squidly fucks in chrome German helmets lying all over the road.
There was a guy on here last summer, or the one before that, into this type of gangsta road takeover that I don't think had anything to do with the Boston thing. The ace ride sounds more familiar, but it's generally not a circle I travel in.
I wish I could remember that dudes name...

[Slyder]

And the squid douche that posted the vid, with "squid" in his name edited out the accident.

I'd rather that mess be cleaned up than get a call that my friends/family are dead. They stop stick cars why not bikes?

Probably because the casualty/death rate is different by about 90%

[Tricky Mike]

This is going Waaaaay back, but I once saw a crew (or three?) shut down the southbound side of the West Side Highway in NYC one Friday night... for what seemed like 10 minutes! It was nuts.

Sorry. I have met too many of these asshats. If he had hit my car with my kids in it I would have ripped the other arm off, too.

The ride was saturday. 3 sportbikes were stolen in Taunton Friday night.

Fuck him. I hope the wound goes septic.

[Slyder]

Oh, I did all I could to prevent me from posting a nasty gram on that douches youtube vid. I don't think any of them deserve to own motorcycles, much less be allowed to ride them in public. Their blatant stupidity makes them look retarded and makes the rest of us look bad, yet they all laugh at it and think it's a riot. They watch their friends get hurt and die and it doesn't smarten any of them up. I bet that memorial ride is for a rider that died stunting or doing something stupid on a bike...not because he actually enjoyed riding.

As for stop sticks and motorcycles, that might as well be forcing an accident. Why not use a pit maneuver on a motorcycle? And given how most idiots dress, you can pretty much guarantee bodily injury, as well as death. Would I lose any sleep over douches like that dying? Not a wink. But riding like they were doesn't deserve a potential death sentence.

Confiscating their bike (as in you don't own it anymore) and say 30 days in jail would smarten a lot of them up.

[G21forme]

So you disagree with stop sticks entirely I take it? 80+ with no seat belt and drunk hitting a stick in a car can easily be lethal, dead is dead what's the difference in vehicle operated?
