Not sure what you mean by that, but are you saying that they did it b/c there was an audience?
I think that he meant, "they look like squids, so we are going to call them squids." Plus, in my opinion, being an experienced/good rider doesn't exempt someone from squid status.

My experience is stupid folks don't need a reason to act stupid. The fact remains that most times you look up 'motorcycle crash' on youtube its usually someone doing something stupid. The only thing worse is ones that endanger other people by doing them on public streets in broad daylight.

I can't tell you how many 'experienced' gun guys I have known that have blown their toes of doing something dumb. Experience doesn’t compensate for a lack of common sense.

The thing that kills me is that they will do something that has a high proboblity of failure and fail to wear protective gear. Then they whipe out and wear the scars like a badge of honor.

Yes, I notice that too about idiots like that. I just walk away and don't listen to their story.

No protective gear=squid.
How many of those "experienced" riders didnt even have helmets on?
It's hard for me to feel sorry for any of them.

And for the love of god, don't do it where you are going to hurt someone else, or destroy someone else’s property. i.e not on the freeway!
