    I don't want to ride with this guy....

    Man, this dude has some serious skills. I know many of you are Facebook Luddites but if you have an account take a look at this. Craziness on a Harley.

      Chief "Luddite" here.

      I clicked the link. It invited me to join Farcebook. I declined. I could see the video anyway.

      I have seen it before, but it's still nice to see someone bash the stereotypical "Harley rider" image.

        That video has been making the rounds. It's a sped up version. They still have skills, but the video has definitely been sped up.

        Search for rnickeymouse on YouTube. Notice the "r n" in the name, not an m.

          When his back wheel slips out pretty harshly I am pretty sure I would have filled my drawers with brown stuff. Just watching it made me clinch.

                Dude can ride. Too bad he opted for full Harley riding gear.

                    The videographer exclaims 'whoa' at least once -
                    Yikes - the road rash on those bare arms would be tremendous --

                      That is more realistic. Still crazy. This one came up right after. Are there no cops there? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nN4tv5HtVv0

                            The guy following on the sport bike can't ride if he couldn't pass the Harley. I'm calling fake on this one.

                              I think he hung back to record it all.
