ok im driving around and see a kid on a crotch rocket coming to a stop light, he goes to stop and put his foot down and some how almost drops the bike in the process. leans it so far over not sure how he held it up. at that point i notice hes wearing sandals and just roll my eyes. light goes green he tries to take off, but cant get his feet on the pegs because the sandals and half falling off(the kind with out the ankle straps). after almost dropping the bike again and nearly swarving out of his lane he gets both feet up and goes to make a turn. some how the sandal flies off in the turn i see it laying in the road as he brakes hard and tries to pull into a gas station. i guess he had to get off and get fetch his sandal i didnt stay around to see... but what are people thinking when they do this kind of thing :frusty:

Those are the kind of riders that wind up dead. Population control I guess. Survival of the fittest as I see it.

He'll probably grow up to be a congressman, senator, or even president of a country. I just hope it's not the US.

and thats the sad part really. it was bad enough to see someone like that on a brand new bike that had to cost a pretty penny.

life just isnt fair sometimes.

I disagree. I don't think he'll grow up. At all. Kinda hard to do that when you're dead. Survival of the fittest has a negative side-effect though. It's called elevation of the premiums. :?
