This is why I cruise, I'm not out there to be high anxiety the entire ride, I like to enjoy my ride.
Ride your ride. Words to live by, Amen.
Nah. That would have resulted in a high side. He grabbed the clutch with no throttle- low side.
I was never able to just cruise on a bike. The sound, the acceleration, the feeling... But I crashed two times while driving totally civilized and quit riding after that.
Hell yeah
@@Looney_Tombs in a sharp turn in slippery conditions, grabbing brakes will likely cause you to slide without ever starting to tilt you upright as the coefficient of friction isn't high enough. High siding is totally dependent on tire and riding surface to work together to slow bike
2 things I live by whilst riding .. I dress for the slide, not the ride, and if I lose my view, I lose my speed .
Good habits. Another one is to never stop in the middle of a lane at a traffic light. Always next to the sidewalk, in gear and looking at the mirrors on a frequent basis. Getting rear-ended by a driver who plays with a cellphone or daydreams isn't fun.
@@C_R_O_M________At a traffic light, I always go at the front middle so when green light comes I can pull away quickly from the vehicles behind me. Sidewalk is more dangerous cuz then youll still have to either merge left or right when it turns green light
@@lemuelazon4287 I seldom go in the middle and when I do, there has to be a long line of stopped vehicles behind me to cover my back.
If you can't merge fast enough with a bike it might be that your bike has pedals not a throttle! But then we call that a "bicycle" in our parts of the woods.
@@C_R_O_M________ Well nice try. As I said, for me middle is safer. And ofc its a traffic light, a stop would usually have a long line of vehicles behind atleast where I live. Been riding since 2010 when I was 16 and it works for me 🙂
@@lemuelazon4287 I'm, most likely, a way more experienced rider than you are. Traveled in many countries (even in the UK where they drive on the wrong side - and good luck adjusting your riding immediately) and I'm also a hard enduro rider.
When I started ridding 20 years ago I first went to a safe riding school where they taught me what I wrote here. It made sense.
Now, it's good that usually you have a long line of vehicles behind you, but it takes ONE instance in which you will, habitually, stay in the middle, won't have anyone behind you to cover your back and some idiot will slam you from behind. I'd rather not take that risk.
They also taught us to check frequently with our mirrors and be ready to put the bike in gear (to flee) for exactly the same reason.
There's no point in arguing that. It's a given that you are wrong. The middle is a dangerous place to be with a bike.
16:23 "You can't just look, you have to turn." had me weak
10/10 life advice
I am a rookie, still attending classes at a motorcycle school, but I watch these videos to prepare myself for driving around the city. A huge amount of useful information, thank you very much for your work! ✊
It's called riding not driving, best of luck
you only really learn by applying this knowledge on the road. best to just casually ride around low mph areas and practice
My riding instructor told me there are two types of people. Those who have crashed. And those who will. Your not special. Do everything you can to protect yourself. I crashed once because I was “just popping to the shop” so I work my work boots instead of my riding boots. Well my shoelace wrapped around my gear lever in the wind. Popped the bike into neutral in a tight corner and I flopped over.
Biggest bit of advice I can give is that public roads are not race tracks. There are obstacles debris poor road surfaces and most importantly other people.unprofessional people. People not paying attention people who think THEY are special. Racing about thinking only if themself. Riding fast does not make you a good rider. Save that for a controlled environment like a track
Doing the same here. I just got on the road for the first time yesterday with my school. Stay safe!
@@revannoct8724 lol noob
With 5+ decades of riding under my belt, let me say to you newer riders that you CAN stay hyper-alert AND relaxed at the same time.
Sure. It takes (a lot of) practice, but practice makes perfect.
-Wear your gear.
-Slow the hell down.
-Assume there’s someone on their cell phone around EVERY CORNER and EVERY INTERSECTION (because there is).
-Know your limit(s), and never attempt to exceed them (if your buddies are riding too fast for your abilities, let them go & catch up to them later).
-Always have an emergency kit.
-If the road conditions suck, leave your bike at home.
I know your comment was a few months ago, but I like the way you said it: aware, alert and relaxed and enjoying the ride all at the same time. I kinda like traffic sometimes, there's a feeling like you're hunting except you're hunting threats, not prey. It's as relaxing as hunting is for other sportsfolk.
Traumatic Open book fracture via motorcycle... new fear unlocked. Thanks Dan! Ride safe all
I'm 40 and seriously considering getting a bike. Watching these help me prepare how to avoid wrecks
It's a good thing you do that. I started at 14 with a 50cc bike then I moved to a CBR600 at 18 and a GSXR-750 at 22, I just can say I got lucky and I survived those bikes with no serious crashes. Now I'm 37 and I ride a little 390cc, paying more attention than ever. Your brain changes when you grow up and I feel more responsable and mature, and when I see some vids I did back in the day I think I was sooo stupid and daredevil. 40 is a good age to start riding unless you're on your midage crisis and got yourself a Hayabusa LOL
Don’t commit the biggest sin of all, and that’s buying a big Harley for your 1st bike.
A smaller/lighter bike is best when learning that muscle memory, and THEN trade up.
Big bikes with rookie riders is a Mortal Sin of safe riding, and can cost you everything.
H2😅
Same here. I rode as a teen, and my wife unexpectedly passed away at 40 about four months ago. I'm not buying until next Spring, but I live in a nice sedate neighborhood and have access to the city and country via non-highway routes (East Nashville). By Spring, I'll know if it is my honest choice or just grief; we had always talked about getting a Ural with a sidecar, but never did. I will probably get a Rebel (and I would love to see DCT on the 500 in 2024), as I suddenly don't have anybody for the sidecar.
@@EvanEdwards
I’m riding a Ural Gear Up, and it’s the most fun I’ve ever had on a bike.
They’re not for everyone, and you can find a LOT of low mileage, used ones out there.
1:30
I'm Australian and it's in kmphr the two chevrons pushing together actually mean that the road shrinks in thickness.
it’s 28.
Note that there are no "chevrons" [arrows] on the worst corner? A trap for young players, like advisory speed limits that are hugely inconsistent and all but ignore road surface condition.
Whenever I got "too relaxed" on a bike, and I'm a beginner rider, I just watch one of Your videos :) Keep them comin' 😀
I love the advice at 22:11. I feel like too many people riding bikes get into that mentality that everyone around them needs to watch out for them and they forget that first and foremost you are responsible for your own safety. You get into an accident it doesn't matter if it's their fault, you're still the fragile part of the equation. They have a metal shell around them to protect them. You need to do what's best for your own safety and wellbeing. Don't expect other drivers to look out for your safety. It's the same no matter what you're driving. But I see it most with motorcyclists.
It's why you're taught to ride invisible and be insanely defensive. You need to assume NO ONE can see you.
I read a UK Police training riders manual years ago, and the general theme was, that most accident scenarios are due to you the rider, not predicting what was potentially about to happen and being ready to react accordingly. any potential accident is YOUR fault for not predicting it, it is not on some late for work asshole, busy on his phone while swigging coffee to see you and react, assume everyone on the road is an unobservant asshole and be ready for that and you will be 99.9 percent correct.
Dan so many years of content. Watched your vids before I started riding 3 years ago and got a bike. ~16k miles no accidents so far knock on wood. I learned and rode starting off with the right mindset watching other people mess up with your vids.
same here
I was driving home from college (UK) and I saw a motorbike in my rear view mirror so I moved over to the left to let him pass me and he gave me a little thumbs up which made my day.
Also, I’ve got my CBT tomorrow. I’m so excited for it. (It’s a course that teaches you the basics of riding and then allows you to ride a 125cc with Learner plates on)
Best luck with your CBT ( Compulsory basic training) for anyone who doesn't live in the UK.
Brooo I love CBT!
How did you get on with the CBT ?
@@AxeMan2781 thanks for asking, it went pretty well. I got my CBT. Was a bit shaky on the bike at first but got the hang of it eventually
@@itzgreen6085 Are you going to do your DAS too?
I think what happened at 3:15 was that he was riding with his left hand off the bars, accidentally gave it a bunch of throttle, pushing him back as the bike accelerates. now he only has his right hand on the bar so he has to pull, essentially steer right to catch him self from falling back, turning the bars to the right at speed causes the motorcycle to go left, which is where the cars were... I guess that is a pretty good reason to keep both hands on the bars..
I’m now 60. In my late 40s I had the experience for riding my CBR1000RR at plus 160MPH. I just cruise now usually around the speed limit or lower. I am way past driving extreme speeds. I never crashed over my 600,000 plus miles of riding over 15 different motorcycles. Speed and stupidity kills if you ride. Chilling out on my old Fatboy now.
I want to experience 200mph at least ONCE in my life.
But my 43mph homemade is feeling a little slow nowadays
At 5:53 he is in a 30 MPH zone in the UK but he is doing at least 45 or 50, he could have easily avoided that crash if at the right speed.
Such solid analysis and advice. Many of these are a case of "slow down before you need to" and learning to rapidly engage the combination of engine braking with both brakes for maximum slowdown and, crucially: being ready to release the brakes and get back on the gas and pegs for the escape. Sometimes you just need to buy time -- widen the time window and make the escape, not fully stop. But you can't do any of that if you aren't paying attention and threat-scanning at all times. And it's not always cars; sometimes you get open road and no cross streets and start to wind it up and then DEER! It pays to never forget that you're not on a race track. Especially when your bike thinks everything is a racetrack.
I’m a new rider and haven’t figured out something yet: if you have to brake in an emergency, you’ll have to be quick and reducing speed is the main goal. When do you shift down? Do you skip it like in riding class(applying both brakes from 50km/h for the fastest stop possible, and shifting down after coming to a complete halt)? Or do you already start shifting down while braking? In my head the downshift while (emergency) brake seems so hard, because your trying to stop and you are occupied with that already😅
Is this a real world problem or is it just because I’m inexperienced and still have to actively think about shifting and being in the right gear (driving a manual car for 18 years now and the shifting is as fluid and automatic(not thinking about it) as it can get)?
@@danasy87Yes exactly. You are still new that’s why it seems so complex but with experience, shifting gears, effective braking, rev matching and other skills will be automatic and becomes a muscle memory. Learn to always use both front and rear brakes effectively, as well as good braking habits utilizing a combination of engine braking, front and rear. Always be at safe distance to the front vehicles and if you notice a vehicle behind you is tailing closely, signal them to not get too close.
@@danasy87At motorcycle classes, usually they let you use small bikes but when you get your own (say a sportsbike 300/400cc) you will probably get surprised with its size and weight compared to the ones you tried at class. So take your time getting familiar with your bike. Best to learn at the beginning is your slow moves and slowing down/braking/stopping and starting to go. Bigger/heavier bikes mean it will take more time to come to a stop so practice good stopping habit (be able to estimate the safe distance it takes your bike to come to a stop when slowing down)
Nothing to prove... .
You got Nothing to prove to anyone.....hyper alert and totally chilled....that's the A game....Dan 👍☘
You mean the accidents are fake?
@@nikonbosse5920nah he's just saying ride your ride and don't let others influence you. Lots of avoidable accidents happen because people try to push themselves beyond their limits to show off to their friends or just random riders. Nothing to prove means just that, you don't have anything to prove, enjoy your ride at your own pace and let everyone else do their own thing. After all we ride to enjoy ourselves, not to prove a point
Cars pulling out in front is the biggest concern because it's hard to avoid, and you
might swerve into other dangers.
I slow it down when cars are trying to cross.
i rcently started thinking about getting myself a motorcycle driving license and a motorcycle but this stuff always made me feel icky about the whole motorcycle driving and the dangers of it. when i see someone getting hurt like this it makes me sad af
The videos you see here are the worst examples of riding, drivers and injuries.
I only passed my CBT the other day and honestly its not that hard, its just you have to be very aware of what's going on and if in doubt brake.
I don't know whats wrong with the people handling the bikes in these videos, they make it look so hard, its not you just look where you want to go and lean. If you were being aware you wouldn't be going too fast for the corner!
I was surprised today actually because we were going about 40 coming up to a corner in the country and the corner was alot tighter than i though, like alot and it had a terrible surface and it was like a double corkscrew, some rear brake and some leaning and it was fine.
Don't be put off by the people in the video making it look hard.
@DanDanTheFireman Wanted to say thanks for all the breakdown videos. Been riding for a little over a year now and had a situation where a car never saw me and made a uturn in front of me and had to take the small shoulder to avoid hitting them. Out of all the videos I’ve watched and research I’ve done. Your videos tend to stick with me the most. So thank you!
just finished my safety course and stumbled across your page, i'm taking in all the knowledge i can.
Dandan dont ever stop what youre doin. I appreciate ya. Keep safe.
I'm glad you are breaking these videos down, my dad was a firefighter for 30 years and has told me some horrible accidents!
Open book fractures, shredded femoral artery, fasciotomy on both side of my leg, skin grafts over 85% of my leg. Not to mention totaling my brand new 2022 triumph speed triple 1200RR. All thanks to a firetruck who decided to back up in the middle of traffic, down a curve, without looking back. I went under the wheels and only survived because the EMT's where 60 seconds behind the truck. Some things you simply are at the mercy of
A note on emergency braking... if you have room to do so (no passenger) then shift your weight toward the back of your bike to really get the most out of your brakes by keeping more pressure on the rear tire.
You can also apply more front brake pressure
Very funny today Dan! Heads are rolling. 😂. I love starting my day with half an hour of cringing! Thanks for all you do.
From my pov, at the 16:56 mark, the rider could've started slowing down. Also, it's a solid white line. I'm not 100% about Bulgaria, but that typically means no passing.
With a stopped car coming up so fast, the rider should've started slowing down much earlier, thereby avoiding the whole incident.
20+ years of sport bike riding and I've only gone down on tracks. That same 20+ years also saw me jumping out of airplanes for a living. Recently moved to cruisers, but I can't give up the 0-highway speed fun, so I'm running a bulletproof 124" big bore Street Bob. *knocks on wood* I'm at 25 years of not going down on public roads. Lots of close calls, lots of butt pucker moments, but not down. You give a lot of fantastic advice. I would however say that there is a time and place for a rear tire lock up, but it requires a lot of skill and to know when and where to apply it.
I’ve stopped by before. Your picking apart these vids, with the expertise you offer is a great thing for our motorcycle community. I’ve acquired many of these skills over my 50 years of riding. I hate the “close calls” by others that disrupt my day/ride. I’m always focused on safety. I have been knocked off by motorists twice on city streets. Never injured on the streets. My worst crash was at over 100 mph, at the track. Fully geared up had a tank-slapper going thru the timing lights at Union Grove Dragway. I was 21. The idiot drivers make you pay more attention or die,,,,, some choice huh? Keep helping the masses. TY. JT
As a novice rider I have been learning so much from these videos, recognizing patterns & predicting threats / negative outcomes. Great lessons.
I always ride with a good helmet, gloves, a riding jacket with CE rated armor, and heavy boots. I think it's time to get a real pair of riding pants too!
Thanks for these videos, Dan... You're doing a great service for motorcyclists!
I really enjoyed this. Ty. Makes me want to take all your classes!
As someone who has ridden bikes since sneaking rides on my stepfather's farm bike when I was 10 or 11 I can say that when sitting astride a motor attached to two wheels its not a question of if you're going to fall off, its when!
Outstanding content! I was a USAF FIREFIGHTER EMT, then Police Traffic accident Investigator. I also taught MC courses for military and civilians. For new riders the question is simple, its not will I crash but WHEN and can I survive it? Gear is key. If you can afford 10g or more on a bike spend it on gear.
I was on a benefit ride once and it was 60 degrees beautiful and sunny. Wind chill can bite you HARD at 60mph or more. People went into hypothermia and fell over. There were people so cramped up at the end they couldn't walk.
Me? I was so geared up and layered i was sweating.
If a car is pulling out in front of you, aim for the tail of the car if it’s still moving
3:15 the guy said "Man! Seriusly!?" 😂
3:10 onwards made me laugh so hard for some reason, I am balling my eyes out here XD this is my second video of yours, I haven't laughed like this in years. Earned instant sub! you are such a funny guy!
At 10:36 you can see he has a clear reminder right in front of him on his bike (just to the left of his phone). A very good reminder.
I’m 70 years old and have been an avid motorcyclist since the mid ‘60’s. My advice to a new rider is r
Learn to ride your bike as slow as you can on uneven ground. It will give you good skills, feel for your bike and if you fall off, you’re not badly injured. When you aquire some balance and control skills, try some gentle back roads. Build your confidence and skills slowly. A powerful motorcycle will get you in a world of trouble faster than a missiles if you don’t know what you’re doing. Always ride on the road like every vehicle out there wants to kill you. But resolutely occupy your space on the road. Cringing to the side gets you pushed into the gutter. Be safe and enjoy. Hope this helps. Australia
Good video even enjoyed the commentary. Sorry for their loss but self made mishaps are a good reminder to us to stay safe and try not to speed..... I have a 2015 Z1000 it takes discipline.
Recently had a crash on black ice going over Vail pass, CO going 65. Thought it was water, but underneath there was a layer of ice. Thankfully completely fine, but gear was the only thing that saved me a trip to hospital. Got a tiny patch of road rash on my knee. Pants torn, knee protection shaved off
Even with CE rated pants?
i love your stuff because its educational and life saving.
Im 70 so been riding for 54 years but had my closest incident 2 yrs ago.
going into a rt hand off camber unsighted bend i was near the centre line so as to hit the apex and then head for the rt hand curb, when a tourist rentacar came the other way at about 100 kph same as me but they were 1 m into my lane. I was able to brake really hard and leaning over much more to cut my exit angle to be more extreme.and missed him with my left knee by about 1 ft.
Because i was on a Ducati,with hypersport tyres and powrful linear progressive Brembos. I don't ride fast enough to justify Bridgestone S22 tyres,but they saved my body and possibly life that day wearing all the gear all the time.😊
This is really useful to get these things drilled down in your brain, so that you remember these while riding your ride. Stay safe, Have fun!
This a brutal one here Dan! I find myself cringing more than normal.
19:58 this is a classic multi-lane roundabout issue... the person in the near lane sees you but the person in the far lane doesn't understand why you stopped, cannot see past them so mentally shrugs their shoulders and continues on. I have been clipped by idiots doing that... they didn't realize it nearly shattered my ankle (sprained thankfully) and got nailed for leaving the scene of an accident... this can also be a case of "My rear fender is worth more than your life" mentality.
I’ve never seen this guy’s videos. Great work!
I got bit in Colorado. 80 degrees and but too fast around sweeping curve that has shade all the time. Black ice. Naturally my bike found the only gap in the guardrail and went off the cliff. I was uninjured until i realized that I seen no other traffic either direction on that entire pass. After walking 6 miles, now I felt it.
These videos are helping me gain some confidence back to go ahead and get my 250R while riding safely. Thank you. 💙
Found this channel by pure accident. I’ve ridden both motorcycles and scooters. Never had any problems with the bikes but the scooters go more unnoticed. I had one modified to go 70mph. After a near collision I went to a junkyard and put a dual car horn on it. It got a lot of attention and respect from other riders. 😎 that horn saved me numerous times. Bike horns just aren’t loud enough.
Thank you for what you do.
G'day, love your content. I have a lot of bush farm experience with bikes but very little highway so I find these clips very useful. One thing I would like to coment on though as a truck driver is the shevron sign. To us this is a very important sign and indicates a long corner that continues on until the shevron signs end. These corners can be a sharp or mild but have that extended length that brings its own challenges, not least potential hazards from vehicles coming the other way. Basicaly a danger zone. Chevrons are one of the signs truck drivers are very aware of and are often missunderstood. Thank you for your videos.
Ps, I noticed one of the riders fell while braking on a white line while trying to avoid a pull out.
Hey, I did not know that they indicated length of the turn...if it is the same here in America. Good tip. Thanks.
Let's goo. Another video
Great channel
Last one: I think he grabbed front brake and tucked the front, possibly because he was going straight and realized his buddy was continuing left, tried to slow down to make the left. Should have rolled off, dipped it, and then rolled on. Or just gone straight and link up with buddies after a slight wrong turn, laugh it off.
Hi. I've had an accident with side of the vehicle but I was very lucky. I can't really agree with swerving part. Sometimes it will work but what if you swerve and driver just won't stop cause he'll think that he can make it before you. It is a lottery and you can't always guess it.
Ole boy on the sidewalklearned a new kind of martial arts kick. I've never seen anyone move like that. Be safe all.
LMFAO that quad lock promo
See I’ve been using target fixation to my advantage to help me in turns. Focusing on my line and I just naturally go there. For me Hard turns use fixation along with lean and breaking before entering turn bc accelerating through the turn is where it’s at safely
Great video for people who think riding a back is not save because heres proof that most stuff happens when they cant drive
(18:40) He may have overdone it on the rear brake but its also a construction zone so maybe some loose macadam or gravel about that caused the back end to slide.
On Point Performance makes top line bike protection.
Dope video
I thought this was just going to be a video laughing at others pain. I am learning. Great job pal
Hey TOM SeGURA!
I didnt know youre doing motorcycle videos! Love your comedy...😊🙃😉
This dude is saving lives 🤝
At 14:16 thats the ls2 valiant helmet . The chin flips all way back so you can go from a full face to 3/4 helmet and ride in the 3/4 setup .
I had a serious case of road burn on all of my knuckles from a fun little accident a few years back. So I can say that asphalt friction is not very fun 😂😭
4:04 damn dan unpacking all that, if crashes aint enough these were.
Here in Australia some places for guard rails have replaced the solid metal for two thick wires we call them cheese graters if buoy come off your bike at speed and hit one of these wire guards you don’t go home in one piece
At 13:08 we have the Lower Lumbar dance - also called "Wish Wash", as in, make a guess which deep wound has to be washed out, and how bad it hurts doing it! Dan walks off screen, disgusted at the rider's moves, and obviously jealous! Edit: They call him "good to go", or "Forrest Gump" for short.
The main problem I have with motorcycles is within a short time my confidence exceeds my ability. Always ends badly and always ends the same. Some should not be parents. Some should not be in charge. Some have no business on a scooter...D'oh.
Lol the pause when the helmet shows on the face cam 😂😂
15:29 sena 10c pro is what i used
also i saw the brake light had my rear brake on but relized they were stoping way faster than i thought so i locked up the rear
Been doing cycling and off-track cycling for years before going for motorbike licence ...
Considering how hurt I've been from fall of a bicycle, I bought a full equipment set and wore it even through the lessons !
You only have one life, a few millimeters of skin gone can be seen forever so protect yourselves and ride safe V
(sorry for the bad english, I'm a french guy)
When i turn 17 and get my a1 or turn 18 depending if i want a car first then get a2 im just gonna cruise about till i feel comfortable to go slightly above speed limit or have fun a little
These videos are smart my guy
How do you only have 590k subs? This channel is awesome.
i hear him mention cardo a lot and i don't know if he's sponsored but i have to say i am extremely impressed with my cardo system and compared it personally to the sena systems among others that are built into the helmets or otherwise just cheaper and cardo is by far the best quality ive experienced i will refuse to buy anything less. i can highly recomend it
Informação Portugal! Very Google vídeos and tips, started riding in junte and fell on august by brown stage😂, in a curve. So learning to not repeat
I love the fact that here in the UK, if our double yellow lines aren't capped at the ends with a horizontal line like a "T" OR are faded or broken in _any_ way, then the entire stretch of paint is invalid and the restriction cannot be applied to that area. Meanwhile there's New York, where it's like "you see those three microscopic flakes of paint? Yeah that's a yellow no park zone and we're going to enforce it".
18:22 Yeah slammed the rear brake. Stalled the engine and everything. Held on to the slide nicely, though.
I know Mt Diablo well and some of those turns are very deceptive; hidden decreasing radius from full sun at entry to blackout shadow at the apex, etc. Lots of spills and head-on low speed crashes on that road.
Man, I really like your clever humor))
I wonder how many of these low-sides don't bother to get their tires up to temp... Many of them look like the tires just lost grip. Like they weren't actually too low.
Riding in Japan was amazing because the overall speed limit is so low, so cruising around on my loud ass Harley felt like riding with a safety bubble compared to riding in Chicago
I’m binge watching these, trying to expect the unexpected when I get on a bike for the first time in 17 years after ending up under a car.
Your videos make me not wanna ride motorcycles anymore..... just All warm and fuzzy inside 🤗
😂😂 I know your intentions are the best my brother 💯❤️ Thanks for doing this sincerely
Itsy bitsy humour here and there loved it
Traumatic open book fracture is the stuff of nightmares !
If anyone need more reasons to ride safe, these are the kind of pictures you wanna look at (warning : very graphic)
Tramatic Open Book Fracture has now scarred me for life
I've watched a few of your videos 📹! Well done! Have you ever heard of Dr. John Hind? R.I.P.! Watch some seminars about his work as a race responder Dr!...from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 👋🤠
Ooh that dirtbike off the sidewalk was rough
Went on a ride today. When I saw the 15mph sign on the country road, I knew to slow down. It all worked out good in the nice 90° turn
I googled it. I will see it in my dreams tonight. Godspeed
17:00 People (bikes and cars) need to learn this, don't overtake through an intersection, EVER!! This old man even indicated his turn, the number of people I have seen who don't, is just staggering.
Yeah I was rewatching and from what I can see, the first driver made an illegal overtake that confused everyone while second guy had his indicator on and made his turn. I don't think motorcyclist is at fault per se, but I don't think the old dude is either. Maybe old dude was being confusing to the car who passed him? Iunno
actually, is he just completely stopped on the road for no reason and then just decides to go? Weird situation any way you cut it
That goofy helmet at like 18:45 really got a good reaction, holy wah that made me laugh for like thirty minutes.
diesel gets me sometimes, I have only ever had a graze on my knee one time but the only thing I usually get and my ego damage.. here is one thing you should think about not heading toward the vehicles trajectory I know it's what we do. Better to head to the back of it, grass doesn't hert has much has metal
"Can you see in that" 😂 thats exactly what I was thiking.
Funny, I guess I'm just lucky. 345,000 miles on the seat(s). No tickets, accidents, injuries...I ride like I want to ride another day; I keep my head up, watch my speed, watch a LOT of videos like Dan's, and generally ride conservatively (well, most of the time, LOL). I also dress for the slide, not the ride...
The guy at 25:25 crashed because he wasnt looking where he wanted to go, he was looking at the guardrail, got target fixation and he locked up his front brake
That dance and limp away 😂
