This made me laugh

OMG! That's one of those videos where it's horrifying but you can't look away. I think I watched it about 12 times. Mostly because I'm really happy that that's NOT what happened to me, @Bad Billy! Lots of bodies AND lots of bikes were injured in that accident!

 

Looked like a classic case of target fixation to me.
Looked painful for all parties involved, even the motorcycle seemed to off hunting some more cyclists on it's own!

 

It is funny though

 

Only because we're watching a video and aren't one of the three humans or the three two-wheeled involved, Dilli!

 

I seen that video a few years ago on the svrider forum, it looks like an SV-650. IRC it was captured by a guy that videos bikes on Mulholland and then sells them, at the end of the day. Kinda like what killboy does at the Tail of the Dragon road.

 

oh BTW if you haven't heard of tail of the dragon goggle it. Motorcycle Mecca for yanks.

 

I had to look twice at this.

 

Fun video, @Old phart phred. Thanks for sharing it! I know about Tail of the Dragon but I’ve never ridden it. It’s a long way across the country from Arizona. Someday!

 

I live about two hours from the Dragon. Haven’t taken the bike yet but I have driven it in a road legal rally car including one trip when it had a foot of snow on it.

 

Is that the latest project at DDenterprises.com ?

 

Cool art.... pity they didn't use triumph tanks.

Two 70 year old men, Billy and Pete, have been friends all of their lives. When it's clear that Pete is dying Billy visits him every day.

One day Billy says, "Pete, we have both loved football all our lives, and we played football on Saturdays together for so many years. Please do me one favour, when you get to Heaven, somehow you must let me know if there's football there."

Pete looks up at Billy from his death bed "Billy, you've been my best friend for many years. If it's at all possible, I'll do this favour for you.” Shortly after that, Pete sadly passes on.

At midnight a couple of nights later, Billy is awakened from a sound sleep by a blinding flash of white light and a voice calling out to him

"Billy......Billy"

"Who is it?” asks Billy sitting up suddenly. "Who is it?"

"Billy - It's me, Pete."

"You're not Pete... Pete just died!"

"I'm telling you, it's me...... Pete," insists the voice.

"Pete! Where are you?"

"I'm in heaven" replies Pete "and I have some really good news and a little bad news."

"Tell me the good news first," says Billy.

"The good news," Pete says, "is that there's football in heaven. Better yet, all of our old friends who died before us are here, too. Better than that, we're all young again. Better still, it's always spring time and it never rains or snows. Our wives are there too, and young and pretty as ever! And best of all, we can play football all we want, and we never get tired!!"

That's fantastic." says Billy. "It's beyond my wildest dreams! So what's the bad news?”

"You're in the team for this Saturday!”

 

While resting at a hotel in Madrid, a man realizes hes sick and needs to go to the hospital. He quickly walks to the hotel's check-in desk and asks where the nearest hospital is, as he didnt really know what to call or where to go.

The hotel clerk says to the man: "No worries, sir. We shall call the hospital and send a doctor to your room straight away, please go back and wait for them."

The man returns to his room, when suddenly he hears a knock at his door. A small, young doctor walks in to address his cold. Sizing up the sick man, he quickly discovers his issue:

"Sir, I see you have a cold. Please lay down, face up, and close your eyes. I will cure you."

The man lays down, in silence. As his eyes shut, he feels a needle injected into his upper chest. Shocked, he exclaims to the doctor:

"What the hell! What did you just inject into me?!"

The doctor, smiling, replied: "Poison, of course. In exactly 24 hours, you will die a brutal death."

The man stammers: "W-What? You're never going to get away with this!"

"Of course I will. Nobody suspects the Spanish Inn Physician."
