[QUOTE=lefundoof;17074255]Haven't you ever thought about the other people and what if they hit you; not as you're gonna get hurt, but the mental consequences for them. Holy shit stupid teens and their "I'm so cool I can do anything I want."[/QUOTE] I don't think you understand. I [b]DO[/b] think about that kind of stuff. I think about it constantly. But I can't seem to bring myself to care enough to get me to stop. I hate it, but I love cycling so much.
Downhill is way, way more fun.
you're gonna be one of those quadriplegics that go to different schools and explain why bicycle safety is so important have fun with that, I hope you feel fulfilled when you're wheelchair-bound (unless you die)
Oh by the way someone got run over by a truck in my town today. [editline]02:36AM[/editline] he's dead

OP is an adrenaline junkie, AKA stuntmen. If you're almost fearless, you have a good career set for you.
by any chance is your middle name "Danger"? :smug:

[QUOTE=Wolf_Marine;17078174]Ever thought about what the unlucky soul who happens to kill you's going to go through?[/QUOTE] Yeah, I have. I wish I cared more.

[QUOTE=SKuM;17079036]Yeah, I have. I wish I cared more.[/QUOTE] You'll be dead, it'll hardly be your biggest concern. Also enjoy being brain-dead when you do crash. I have nothing against riding helmet less or fast but running in front of traffic is just plain dumb. You're the reason why motorists hate cyclists and give the "I'm so special red lights don't mean shit" idea everyone has of cyclists.
[QUOTE=Wolf_Marine;17078174]Ever thought about what the unlucky soul who happens to kill you's going to go through?[/QUOTE] Find me one driver who hasn't wished they could just run over that cyclist doing 15 in a 25 MPH road,
your not the only one, so stop thinking your special, your just stupid and reckless
[QUOTE=SKuM;17070899]I love cycling. It's a big hobby of mine. However, a large part of the reason why I find it so entertaining is because of the sheer stupidity of the shit I do when riding around in the city. A helmet is a foreign concept to me, despite my dangerous antics. During a massive monthly festival in the downtown area of my city, I bike down with a mate of mine, without helmets or lights, and ride around as fast as I can, cutting off cars, motorcycles, and pedestrians. We have two rules: go as fast as you fucking can, and don't stop no matter what. When crossing large intersections, with Led Zeppelin or Jimi Hendrix blasting at full volume in my headphones, I frequently close my eyes and unhook my feet from my toe cages, and pray that the cars flying past me at thirty or forty mph don't pummel the shit out of me. I've had cars hit the back tip of my tire when flying in front of them, I've come within a foot of oncoming traffic, and I've hit pot holes knocking me off my bike when hitting 30 or 35 mph with cars within arm's reach of me. I'm not suicidal. I'm at least reasonably content with my life, enough so that I don't want to die yet. I'm fully aware of the repercussions my death would have on others, as well as the repercussions to myself if I was seriously injured. Yet I can't seem to bring myself to care about what happens if my astounding luck runs out. Furthermore, I don't understand why I enjoy doing such stupid shit. Do most people's idea of fun push the border of suicide, or am I the only one?[/QUOTE] Anybody thinking of the opening scene from Enemy of the State?

[highlight]I am fully aware of the risks I am taking, and the consequences of my actions.[/highlight][/QUOTE] What if you cut out in front of someone, they swerve to dodge, and run over an innocent pedestrian? I don't really give a shit about you, but there's a chance you're going to get someone else killed.

Fucking cyclists need to get off my road.
The adrenaline rush you get from that isn't worth the danger. Your better off skydiving or doing para-skiing down a mountain.
you need some coke.
