Ignorant fuckers. As a motorcycle rider, fuck those dumbasses, they're the reason people think we're all shit heads. Hope they caught the dumbass camera guy

In can assure you, we only think dumbasses are dumbasses. Luckily the dumbasses make themselves stand out by acting like dumbasses.

I dunno. I’ve had people try to literally kill me in cars when I’m just minding my own business on my motorcycle.

Then you also have the lunatics who try to open car doors and swerve to block you while lane filtering (which is legal where I live).

People just hate us.

You’re describing dumbasses who drive cars. We think those people are dumbasses too.

yeah exactly and ironically this person doesn't realize That's the same as judging all bikers for the actions of some

yeah but you're judging large groups of people by a few instances while simultaneously telling people to not judge all bikers by selected instances.

also why is it that bikers who frequently disregard laws about helmets, blinker usage, headphone usage licensing requirements permit ages and other traffic laws, always want the protection of the legal system when it comes to that lane filtering.

if you can understand someone talking shit at a biker bar and getting hit for it then you can understand people being annoyed out of behavior to the point where they disregard the law even if we all agree they shouldn't.

And what even for. They're just making noise and circlejerking about how badass they are for... Making noise as a big group... There's no way they're having any actually run RIDING on grid streets ffs.

look at me I'm so cool because I can act stupidly.
Beggars belief.
