I was in Los Angeles in the big rig, stopped in traffic on an interstate, which is normal in LA. I looked in my left mirror, and here came a Harley lane splitting at 40 mph! I was shocked. That must be illegal down here in Dixie, I had never seen it before.
I have ridden motorcycles quite a bit but have never ridden like that. Damn that looks dangerous. I watched the guy for a quarter mile, he passed me and went on his merry way without incident.

Nobody in the history of mankind has ever looked over at a guy on his bike, revving the [bleep] out of it and thought to themselves, "oh my God hat guy looks so damn cool." And motorcycle clubs? How fuggin old are you?

IDGAF what kinda bike you're on.....stupid riding is stupid riding!
What I do get a good laugh out of are the suburban white collar weekend "warriors" who play dress up in their "biker" outfits as described in a prior post and go riding on their high dollar,clean, accessoried up HDs with their "bros" and think and act like the bike and costume make them instant badazzes. Have seen many of these clowns walk into a bar etc acting like badazz mofos and either leave quick when sheit they pull aint appreciated and starts getting real or they get the sheit kicked out of them and limp on off after the obligatory call to law enforcement. Either that or their badazz selves just go act tough at Applebees or some other family friendly "bar"

Reminded me - years ago. I had a mirror on the floor, propped against the wall of the office, and wife or one of the kids brought in a kitten. I spent an hour laughing myself silly over that cat!

He was a real hero for speeding off.
Real stand up guy. Guy nearly goes down, saves it and leaves? Why should he stop? To go back in traffic and ask the guy if his mirror is OK? I'm not saying he was a hero but the fugger could sure ride. You sure you want the guy going back and sweet talking the tow truck driver? LMAO If I ever see your bike I’m gonna tip it over and ride off. No big deal. No schiit, right? I mean, why should I go back to check for damage and take responsibility?

I've been riding a bike for well over 40 years and I guess I am one of the Azz Holes. for 30 years I have been riding (Commuting) in Southern Commyfornia. I white line because sitting on a bike in 100 deg temps stopped in traffic is a death sentence in this State. When you drive the speed of everyone else you become invisible to all of the car drivers on the road that can not pay attention to their surroundings He11 most of them do not look past their own hoods. Going faster than the Traffic makes you stand out and yes I drive a Harley with loud pipes so that people hear me coming as well as see me. When I want to get home other bikers had better get out of my way because I do Rev my engine to get those pukes who thing they are a bad ass on a bike to get out of my way and I have pushed several so called true Bikers out of my way. In the same respect when I am not in that big of a hurry to get home I get out of the way and let others pass me.
I am a Gigantic Dosh as some would call me. When you commute in this State you are a Dosh or you die plain and simple. If you are the nice guy you end up smashed up or run off the road intentionally or by mistake because the other cars did not see you or they are pissed because you are getting home hours before they are because they are stuck in traffic and you are not.
I have had an Police escort several time exceeding 100 mph when we get out in the open because the Bike Police want to get out of the conditions and get home them selves and I just keep up with them and when we split off I wave at them and they have always waved back at me. I have had my share of close calls and even went down a couple times Once I ended up in the back of a Pickup Truck because some A Hole driving a car decided to stop at a green light and I was the last of 4 vehicles involved in his screw up. And one time I was driving to work and a Girl slammed on her breaks at a green light. I played Superman and flew over her car landing on my feet in front of her. She had no idea where I came from and hit the gas and almost ran over me.
I have also been chased by cars and trucks trying to run me down and run me off of the road when there was no other vehicles in sight. I had a 250 Enduro Yamaha and was chased for no reason at all the guy tried his hardest to run me off of the road when I was going to work at 4 in the morning with no other cars on the highway after the his third attempt at running me off the road because I had n speed I could only hit my breaks I took his passenger side mirror off with my forearm. When we got off the Highway he had no chance in chasing me. My Bikes started getting bigger and faster after that. I had a Guy try and sandwich me into a Boat Trailer one day while I was trying to get to work and I could see him laughing about it in his rear view mirror. I had some Ragheads chasing me one day. My bike pigged the speedometer at 130 and I was still picking up speed to get away form them as they were taking pictures of me with their phones playing games
When you see bike riders you never know what they have been threw or what kind of rider they are. Give them a bit of room and the good ones will let you know that they appreciate it. I ALWAYS wave at the drivers that give me a bit of room by moving over as I come up to them. They tell me several things. They see me (that's the big one) and they do not have a chip on their shoulder about me getting threw traffic when they are at a crawl or even stopped
Ya I am a Real Ass Hole when I drive my bike and I am still alive when I know several riders that are not around anymore to talk about what they have went threw I Know I am an Ass Hole when I ride my bike and I do not care what others think. I have had Bikers that I have worked with tell me I am an Ass Hole and I tell them to wake up and get out of the way from someone wanting to get by them because they do not want to move. Several Ironworks affiliated with Bike Clubs have told me that and when you are their Inspector it kinda take the wind out of their sails a specially when their Foreman hears the conversation and sides with me.

I have a similar, yet very different story about why the mirror on the ceiling above my bed had to go. I swore there was a naked skydiver coming down on me.

BS!! No way you landed on your feet and did not fall over. BS I was in my 20s and was a lot more nimble back then. It did happen and I had to put my hands out and hit her hood to get her to stop from running me over.
