Human bobsled vs. motorcycle

You're right. That does look like Bacon riding the bike.

No lean.

Fun. But, the bike rider wasn't leaning very hard in the corners. He looked like me riding! Whimp

That was absolutely ridiculous.

I can't wait to blow a good hour at work tomorrow showing everyone that video

I was waiting for him to flip onto his back for some turtle spins...

he is some crazy frenchman...there's a couple of youtubes of him going down various roads around the world

I think he should cover himself with snow boards and do some ski slopes too

staged...

The bike should of ran over him at the end. Just like Vicki on Fifth Gear did when she raced an RC car and lost.

Holy Shit, how did I miss this thread for this long?!

I would TOTALLY rock that roller suit!

That looks like fun...

Yeah, IZ... I don't remember seeing too much of you in my mirrors on the DIMBY ride... You must have been hanging with DanTheMan.

Yeah, I was stuck behind him. But I was keeping up fine after passing him and Carl. Plus, keeping up on the ride to Carl's house..even over jumps with a full load.

Yeah, I still feel kinda bad about that... I shoulda warned about that bridge. Didn't mean for you to go all "Isle of Man" over it. Well, maybe...

The important thing is the packs were still secure!!

The Bacon Junkie · June 14, 2011, 11:34:22 PM

The important thing is that you made it back to Phoenix for the birth of your son!

True, but still..that would not have happened had the bags not stayed secured!! Thankfully, I did that test run with the pack prior to leaving for CA which immediately prompted me to go out and buy 10 more bungees!!

I wouldnt be teasing those guys too much there BC. I had time to get off my bike, take my lid and gloves off, get the camera out of the tank bag, and still had to wait a couple minutes for you guys to pass by.

The Bacon Junkie · June 15, 2011, 07:52:20 PM

The ride was over by then... I was riding one handed, going slow. I wanted to make sure the guys who'd never been up there didn't miss the right turn in the middle of the tunnel.

But whatever. I'll let you bag on me. It's cool.

At least I didn't sell my Duc for a "reliable" Japanese motorcycle. With a Harley mudflap. And cupholders. That pours gas outta the carbs. And stalls. Then won't start.

Just say'n...
