It's about time for a ride report on that Busa by the way

Unbelievable. How could they not get stopped in time?

Two possibilities are
1) target fixation
2) failure to use the front brake

I was thinking the same thing, that if they use the front brake the bike will crash itself

fucking douche bags... I can see in a group that one or two are following too closely... or not paying attention... but fuck... the whole god damn crew?

I moved to Wilsonville right after HS... the part where they wrecked is filled with people cutting over trying to make a cut off for I205...(a by pass of portland) ALWAYS have someone cut from the far left to the far right lanes...

Brother Speed huh...

On the Brother Speed website, it's self-described as "a club that is serious about brotherhood, respect, riding fast and building Choppers."

Some chopper guys will take the front brakes off and roll with just a rear drum brake

Ya I know, as was the style with the super long springer front ends and 100+wire spoke wheels.

Hey whatever floats their boat, as long as they float it into something or someone other than me.
