I had a similar experience on the Robby Knievel ride I went on last fall. This was a day ride down to Nogales from an RV dealer in Tucson where Robby was doing a jump the next day. There was a film crew with a guy in the back of a pickup truck holding up a camera and shooting the ride. Well it turned into a free for all as everybody wanted to get their mugs on film. It was without a doubt the most dangerous ride I've ever been on. What made it even worse was when one of Knievel's posse ran out of gas through some tight curves, and everybody starts pulling off the road where there's almost zero shoulder right after a blind corner. I thought for sure some rancher with a big pickup was going to plow into that group. No way was I stoppin', so I blasted ahead of everybody and just kept going.
I think I've seen some recent commercials for Robby Knievel's show that's supposed to be on A&E. I wonder if they'll use any of the tape from that ride? I'm hoping I don't show up on TV now that I think back to all the idiots that were around me.
