Default Sportbikes marathon....{{gag}}

I've been watching (taping) the sportbikes marathon. I figure, only 5 more beers and I'll be out doing wheelies through the neighborhood, and doing stoppies at every stop sign. Jami is so much better at this then me.....in his Icon gear.....

I'm such a kick-ass rider. Jason Britton has nothing on me.....

I finally caught my first episode of that travisty the other day... it was the skater looking white kid and the tyrese lookin black kid going to Laguna for the GP last year... the white kid wrode a VFR800 there and he was whining like a girl about how uncomfortable it was and all this shit... then he really seemed like he had no clue as to who Valintino Rossi was... Really horrible show... just feeds all the stereotypes about sportbikes! uggg

"Sportbikes" is to Speedvision as to what "Sand" is to lube for anal sex.....


Basically, it's nothing of interest, for those with interest.

The movie Torque! I was flipping channels the other night and happened to watch a few minutes of that absolute piece of crap. I think I died a little inside.

The Superbikes show was pretty stupid, but I have to say that Jason B. is one hell of a stunt rider. I think the best part about it was where I guess one guy said his bike wouldn't wheelie, and Britton jumped on it and wheelied the shit out of it along with other tricks like he'd owned it for 10 years.

IMO though, the whole 'yo yo yo' thing just made the show trashy as hell, and showing all the squids and retards is what makes sportbikers look bad, not the wheelies.

I remember on one episode some dickhead was sitting there, not moving, and was practically banging it off the rev limiter over and over, with a look on his face like "oh yeah, this is the SHIT!" It was at that point I had to restrain myself from putting a .45 caliber hole in the TV.

Jason is pure douche bag. He did a show in my town not too long ago...so we invited him out for our reg. Thurs. evening group ride. Response was something along the lines of 'I'm not riding with you f*king wannabees'. There's a few people out there that I wouldnt pee on to put them out if they were on fire. He'd probably be one of em.

It is a shame that you had that experience with J. He is a great guy, as I have ridden with him more times than I can count. You have to keep in mind that the show is targeted towards a demographic cross-section of people that are new to riding and complete idiots. Point proven...Dave is recording the show! I don't like the show, however, J. is a good guy and was probably working on a shitty schedule and working around the most squidly punks this world has to offer. You most likely caught him on a bad day after a long filming with him having to talk to complete tools.

Dis the show, not the guy.

The only episode I saw of sportbikes was when they went down to the dragon and showed 20 seconds of twistie riding, then segwayed over to 20 minutes of a custom Hayabusa builder who stretched and chromed the Freddy Kruger bike with NOS and airbagged suspension.

Something about that made me feel terrible and ashamed.

I didn't know there was an RC in Torque,,, Does that make it worth watching? I'm guessing no
