42.6 miles in under 15 minutes during RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, need I say more? If that's not impressive/incredibly dangerous I don't know what is. Some dangerous parts at 4:33, 5:09, 8:04.
I think that's 42 miles, btw, not 48. You can clearly read that his average speed was 170 mph - the miles are a bit harder to read, but look like me to be 42. But anyway going 170 mph for 14:55 gives you 42 miles. (math)
At that speed, it is eia. One sudden lane change by another vehicle and that bike is toast. People like this should not be allowed on the road, or should go somewhere there are no people and kill themselves quietly and quickly.
I'm a motorcyclist, and I've spent the last 5 weeks at home recovering from a shunt with a hit-and-run driver. Motorcycling is, in my opinion, the absolute best way to travel. Being out in the open air, becoming one with a powerful machine-it's a beautiful feeling of control and synergy, seeing things that you'll never see while surrounded by a steel cage, smelling your surroundings- fantastic. When you ride a motorcycle you belong to an elite secret society. All motorcyclists belong, and like all secret societies, there are rules: you help any stranded motorcyclist-no matter what he's riding, you also have recognition codes (a friendly wave). It's nice to belong.
As exciting as this may seem, he's not doing our club any favors, and in fact is doing the motorcycling fraternity a disservice by endangering himself and others. He's freaking the shit out of the people he's passing at those outrageous speeds thereby making us all look like morons, and he's encouraging other jackasses like himself to take up doing the same thing on our public roads- jackasses who won't have the same obvious skill that he has.
Anyhow, the point of this diatribe is to explain the downvote.
Fixed the mileage. Thanks for catching that cheesemoo Furthermore blankman there are video's of this guy chasing down another motorcyclist while he's dressed as a police officer. He ends up chasing him through I believe 2 cities, catches him, gives him a thumbs up, and rides away. There are rumors that he is a professional Motor GP racer, but those are unconfirmed.
