    OUCH!
    Looked like fun right to the end. (Not that I could have pulled that off that ride!) If he had gone down about a foot earlier he would have been in a world of trouble.

    you know it didn't look like they were going that fast at the end or else the bimota would have been in pieces and the 996 would have ramped him. maybe they had just back down for that corner or something.... I was trying to watch the speedo to see if I could tell how fast they were going, but it was blurry. regardless they were going to fast to be on a busy road with cyclists and RVs... kind of like riding the PCH here on the weekend...except there is even more traffic...

    I have to agree with Reg71. While I like to go fast on occasion I don't think that road was the place to do it. Too many hazards. At least he didn't hurt someone else. Know if the road was closed a whole different story. They sure were a lot quicker than I would be though.

    OK, those two are idiots for riding like that on public roads. That stuff should be saved for the track.
