good point, but isnt it true that if you do that you'll probably kill the guy on the bike and wind up in jail?

Probably not. Most people do not consider bikers as people. We are viewed as a little crazy to begin with and if there is a problem, it is our fault. If you don't believe it, read the article again. It appears their behavior, i.e. wheelies, has nothing to do with the accident itself. Trust me, if you are on a motorcycle, the last thing you want to do is play chicken with a car. You loose.

You're kidding, right?

A handful of motorcyclists were on Highway 364 Saturday when they changed lanes and cut off a Ford Explorer, forcing that vehicle to swerve to the right and hit a Chevrolet Suburban.

Yeah but you guys play chicken with cars all the time. Just don't try stunts in front of N.J. Acura TLs; it might be me.
