That wasn't funny at all. Stupid on his part, yes, but not in the least funny. I can't believe they drove off. How are they supposed to get the guy out of there on a wrecked bike? Seriously, people piss me off.


And I just got back from the Ozark mountains this past Monday. Over 700 turns on my POS Harley, and never had any problems. It's more about the rider than the ride it's self.....

The guy was fine, and yes, it was funny

How do you know? Did you see a part of the vid I didn't, because I don't see him come walking back up the hill......

Bury a few friends that made one bad decision, then you'll fail to see the humor in it too. I hate stupid people, and that guy was stupid, but I don't believe that anyone really deserves to get seriously injured or killed just because of ONE bad idea. Break and arm or leg, okay, I can live with that, and I'll probably chuckle, but looking at that I doubt that was the outcome for him......

Stupid decision on his part:bash: and he got lucky that he went off where he did. One of my neighbors totaled his brand new Triumph on the dragon less than a month ago. He was lucky that he hit the side of the mountian instead of going off the other side---the other side was a 200+ ft. drop. :eek:

That's why I just get on my Harley and cruise:rolling:

That harley rider was an idiot. Wait patiently for the car to reach a pull off area. Then go around. Stupid decision deserve stupid consiquences.
