You know you need a kick in the ass when..........

Have a look at the posts on the MCN website in one of the posts there is a link to the news artical showing the video footage which i have seen find the link and please watch the footage before condeming the rider. Well just been and had a look for the link to the footage and the video has gone but the main artical is there, here is the link to that. BBC NEWS | England | Devon | Prison sentence for 122mph biker
MCN website and all the comments at this link.
122mph biker jailed for six months - Motorcycle News
 
I read it to the wifey and she said, "Oh, you would not go to jail. You would not have made it to court. They would be looking for your body."

I can't believe someone would do that. On, second thought, I can. I have arrested or written citations to many people when I was a cop for child neglect/endangerment. Probably 9 out or 10 were men.

I just looked at the video. The road looked wet also.
 
The story has changed so many times already.
The first quotes in the paper had him bragging how he had the fastest bike around and excusing his stupidity by saying he had been in a rough spot for the last week or so.

Then last week he's saying he's so sorry, going to sell the bike, didn't realize how much power it had (while admitting that he drove faster because it started raining)

Then he blamed the manufacturers and said that nobody should make a bike that fast.

Perhaps people who don't show proper caution just shouldn't be permitted to ride them!

May not be 122 mph in that photo, but on wet surfaces AND with a passenger, he's not only risking his own stupid neck, he's doing it to someone else.

It's because of idiots like this that we in Canada are now fighting a proposed law below

Bill 117 in Ontario and why every rider across Canada needs to know what it is about. Eroding a parent’s right to choose.
