i think that pre-commercial add for the weather should end with "put DEPENDS on ken".

Freakin SuckSucki riders...

[pilot]

ok. this qualifies as our safety briefing video for everyone on the ride on saturday.

god doesn't watch out for crashing riders (just like he didn't save 103 in iraq), SNELL does.

stay tuned to this for the laser on tomorrow night.

They've legislated everything else - it's coming for us too. The posted speed limits are ridiculous for us whether it's 25 or 65 up there in the mountains but corner speeds way in excess of 100 on public roads are ridiculous as well. You never know what is around that corner.

[V-Twin Villain]

I hope those people stay in Georgia. I wonder how many fatal crashes occur in Colotrado mountains so far this year.

i take it you haven't been out on 9 and the guffey area?

Seems like the Dragon there, just people/LEO aren't used to it yet.

I wonder how many of the 300 some motorcycle accidents actually involved sportbikes versus cruisers. You don't have to go fast on a cruiser to board out and lose control in corners like that. Esp when you have one hand off the bars to give the camera guy the thumbs up.

Damn Hippies!

Figures Fox news would make it sound like 100MPH is a bad thing... Geeeez...

Anyhow, they could of at least titled the segment correctly as "Darwinism at Work"...

terra, quit dickin around and get off the net. you need to keep them servers up and running so the rest of us loosers (hey, who am i calling a looser) can fool around while at work-cept me. still want to edit ken's adult tapes today?

[Badhabit]

Pilot, I haven't been south of Hwy 24 on 9. What's up in Guffey?

[Kendo]

I want to see the next show where they catch them on the Radar guns and the speeds....

[suzinpink]

hummmm. ROADTRIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kendo]

I am surprised that they havent done any story like that here.....

[Slo]

Yeah that is the common "loop" for the area if you live anywhere near Atlanta/Marietta etc.

[DevilsTonic]

If you want to go fast, take it to the track and wear proper gear!

[konichd]

If you want to go fast, go to the Conoco in Morrison, wear gear too!

I didn't see a very obvious link on the first page so here is the link to part deux. It's bad journalism that they didn't try to talk to any of the riders who were doing those speeds. They didn't even have an interview with any riders, rather the viewer is only given the information that the I-Team presents that they apparently read online.

Welcome to the machine...........

This is not really a new problem, just a more popular one. Waaay back in the day I used to run that route with a group I rode with. Of course Atlanta has exploded since the 80's and so has motorcycling, so of course more bikers are up there, along with more cars and you can only squeeze so much into one space before things start colliding.
