Doesn't look as bad as the 405 did last thursday at 5pm. That guy was moving though.

Exactly how many successful missions has that kamakazi pilot flown?

Couldn't do that on Bell Road thru Sun City and Sun City West!

That just plane 'ol insane! One wrong move and he would be like a ping pong ball bouncing off that traffic.

At least there were a couple of sane riders on the road.

I've actually ridden just like this in Japan. Why? Well, yes I am stupid, but also, I was following a retired Japanese racer, and was more terrified of getting lost (I don't speak Japanese) than of the riding. However, I must admit that splitting between rows of tractor trailers at 130mph was maybe the most terrifying moment of my riding career!

Kind of reminds me of the closing scenes of Star Wars. Yikes.

Been there, done that. I'm sure the fastest speed I've ever gone is about 45 mph on a KR250 following a skilled madman through Tokyo.
