My favorite "OH ******" moment caught on tape:

Poor choice, target fixation, bad braking technique, etc.

Ok, sorry. I didn't see where it'd been posted before. The search function leaves a bit to be desired. Chalk it up to an oldie but goodie.

He should have learned to ride before going out on his brand new motorscooter. goes to show $20,000.00 and a desire to be cool don't = biker.
There is so much wrong there you can't go into all of it. The main one is tring to pass in those conditions especially when you can't handle the bike in the first place.

No worries. We have a constant stream of newbies registering. It's always new to somebody.

(And yes, the search sucks. I'll have to try and do something about that someday.)

LOL!

If you type your search term in google followed by site:bonnevilleamerica.com it will only show you results from this site. Not sure if everyone knew that one. Example: "What Oil" site:bonnevilleamerica.com.

Unfortunately "dumbass harley rider goes careening off the road" site:bonnevilleamerica.com didn't return any results...
