    Please. You took a rider for a short ride on your bike. I took another bike for a ride on my bike.

    You copied, just took the easier way out.

    Pure carelessness on the part of that guy. Gotta be looking ahead. Totally avoidable

    The camera rider didn't chop the throttle or ride erratically, the rider behind screwed up.

    Watching this kind of sheit makes me think they weren't being entirely honest with me when they said "the track is a safe place"

    The track is only as safe as the other fucktards out there.
    It is a safeR spot to ride a motorcycle to its/your capabilities for sure.

    Ever been on a group ride?

    One of the most unsafe motorcycling situations I've ever been in was when I was alone on NH-101 at 10 AM on a Sunday morning minding my own business and three super sports headed for Hampton elected to strafe me, passing me in my own lane inches from my handlebars with a 30-40 MPH speed differential.

    I hate it when my attempt at sarcasm is either incorrectly delivered or not picked up. I was kidding.

    I do know all about the craziness on the street, only too well, in fact. That's why I gave it up.
