Maniac bicyclist in NY city

[brianmanahan]

Baby boomers are in full effect tonight.

video has beatles in it so you might wanna CRANK UP THE TUNESSSSS :awe:

 

[alkemyst]

I'm sure he's hit cars before too and done some scratches or damage. Think he stopped or paid for it and left a note? Doubtful.

Looked like in the video he was slapping cars riding by.

 

[alkemyst]

I noticed he is using more than one 29" mountain bike in that video. He may have well gotten hit and ruined the bike.

or stealing bikes.

Mad skills.

Complete douche bag.

 

[Humpy]

Giant pussies see this as an "OMFG! MANIAC bicyclist an the loose in NYC!!!" and want their mom to make it stop.

Rational people just see a video of a dude riding some wheelies.

So a dude riding right at you with a wheelie popped and swerving at the last possible second is completely normal and rational?

Bro, a fucking bus had to slam it's brakes because your dude was playing chicken with it.

That is not cool.

calling all Range Rovers... calling all Range Rovers...

But guuuise, this is super safe and bicycles are awesome and should be allowed to do this cause environment.

Yet you defend motorcyclists that do worse shit.

 

[akugami]

The big difference is by and large the motorcycling community shuns that sort of behavior while the bicycling and crotch rocket communities support all of the moronic actions of their fellow riders.

FTFY

I thought I was obliged to give fair warning, it's not my fault that rap is about as lame as it gets musically, I'd rather take a shotgun blast then listen to 5 minutes of rap.

I guess if what passes for a badass around here is someone who is not fucking outraged by video of some dude who is just not following the rules then, yes, I am a badass.

Heavens to Betsy!

I seriously hope everyone on that bus is going to be OK.

Serious.

I think mr. bicycle should change it up and do a wheelie or something.

 

[Miramonti]

Those are some wicked skills coupled with epic douchebaggery. No reason to take something entertaining and going out of one's way to fvck with people. Its especially asinine to make buses, who think they are doing the dude and their careers a favor by trying not to hit him, slam on the brakes and possible injure passengers. There's got to be a better way for this guy to get his props without making others want to 18 wheeler treads on his back.

 

[Pheran]

I don't understand why he bothered getting a bicycle when a unicycle would have sufficed.

 

[jessieqwert]

Better yet, a pedestrian grabs his front tire and gives it a sharp pull. Problem solved.

It's incredible that ciclists support this behaviour.

The big difference is by and large the motorcycling community shuns that sort of behaviour while the bicycling community supports all of the moronic actions of their fellow riders.

That's pretty strong stereotyping; one group of bikers who made a Youtube video doesn't represent everyone, everywhere. Most serious cyclists I know are not happy about the behavior of immature riders like this because it gives the rest of us a bad name. And for the record, I see a lot more people doing dumb things on motorcycles than I do on bicycles - whizzing by at over 100 MPH, doing wheelies on the highway, weaving in & out of traffic at high speeds, etc.

 

[Kaido]

I thought it was this guy...

Wow, lock that guy up, that's horrible :thumbsdown:

With that kind of talent, you'd think he'd just join Cirque du Soleil or something...

 

[StrangerGuy]

Here in Singapore I'm praying for an immediate ban for bicycles on roads. Who the fvck they think they are hogging bus lanes during peak hours when they are tons of commuters taking buses to work. Some can't even ride straight FFS, but no because "I can pay $10k to pedal a bike which is the hardest skill in the world look at how awesome I am."

 

[Exterous]

I didn't read the article or the thread but can only conclude that this is more proof that all ciclists are assholes.

 

[zokudu]

What a moron.
