 The fun begins in twenty-five years
A little sage advice from an old road warrior. These little pukes think it is cool to do stoppies, wheelies burn-outs, etc. and yes it does make for some entertaining footage. What isn't included in the film is what these cowboys look like at fifty. Arthritis, joint problems and fractures that never healed properly. Scars, infection complications and that is before we get to the head trama - bounce your head off the pavement enough and you will be sparring with Muhammed Ali at the home.
Your body is a non-renewable resource and what is minor at twenty will become a major issue at fifty. I have a friend that was totally irresponsible on a motorcycle at twenty. He is forty-eight and on disability. Unable to work, ride or function at normal, every-day activities. I'd like to see him wheelie his scooter now but then again he can't because it has wheelie wheels to keep from rotating backwards when climbing the curves.
It is unfortunate for our society that these fools only did a half-ass job and were never removed from the gene pool.
