I rode for years and recently got out of it - if you're going to brake on a bike you better be aware of what is behind you. I'm with the Rover. If Someone did that to me, while I was in MY truck...1987 Delphin 325e Sedan - Natalie

This, wow. I don't understand. How the fuck do people get behind the wheel of a vehicle (bikes included) and not comprehend the consequences of their actions. You can kill and be killed in these things. Brake checking an SUV when you're on a bike, no matter what happened prior is fucking stupid. However, whenever I see guys doing really stupid shit, I think, "Good, we do need more organ donors."sigpic

Yeah.
So I now know what they did. Bikers lose. Morons. They should have pinned him in his car and let the police arrest the guy for the hit and run.
But again, none of us were there so we really can't have a firm opinion on the whole thing. It's amazing to read the facebook replies. All the redneck racists come out. And I love how people post shit like: 'it would have been different if I was driving...'. Or: 'I would have shot those guys...'. Yeah yeah. People suck. What a bunch of couch-surfing wanna be tough guys. Fakes.

I couldn't see any initial attack since its out of range of the camera but if they slashed his tires after impacting the first bike...would he be able to drive 60 odd blocks at high speed after the fact? Could it be he just got nervous and overreacted? I didn't see any aggression from bikers until he decided to ram them. As for the first biker, he did seem to pull in front of the RR and slowed down and broke at the end although I can't see any brake lights. Ramming the bikers for the second time and running off...just made matters worse. I'm not surprised at how it ended at all.Last edited by reelizmpro; 10-01-2013, 09:21 AM."I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj

How much you want to bet the Range Rover cut that dude off and nearly hit him? -- and that's what started the whole thing. Road rage based off of stupid shit with a terrible chain reaction of events. NYC idiots at their finest. Glad I don't live their anymore. You always see some retarded shit happening in the city.

Looked like the Range Rover hit the initial biker from behind. Doesn't matter if the biker broke. The guy in front has the right of way... But you have to wonder what started that.
Then the driver probably panicked and stupidly decided to plow through their crew. Bad move.
The bikers did the right thing by tracking the guy down because that was a hit and run but they should have NEVER beat his window in and caused anymore danger on the road (hopefully that's as far as it went). Both parties should have called the police.
Anyway, I hate NYC for stupid shit like this. Bunch of hurt boys playing up to ego. Idiots.

I made the same statement on a FB thread but that's only speculation. In the beginning of the video you can see that biker turning his head in the direction of the Rover as if he was yelling to him before going in front and slowing down/brake checking whatever you want to call it. This makes me believe there was more to it."I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj

Worst thing he did was get off the highway. They cannot do shit to him at 25+ mph. Allowing the Mob to be on foot is where things went wrong. Even if he cut them off somehow before the video they were dumb to mob a Rover.
If I had a family I would do anything to protect them. That includes running over thugs on sport bikes with half helmets(fucking gay).
Should have stayed on the highway went over 80mph and bumped anyone that thought to get beside me. Let's see how two wheels does against 4 with 3 ton coming at them.
I have been stuck in biker rallies before, I move over into the slow lane and put my hazards on to let them by. Then again this is upstate NY and I doubt this would happen here.Last edited by F34R; 10-01-2013, 10:17 AM.~ Puch Cafe. ~ Do business? feedback ~ Check out my leather company ~

Biker At Start Of Terrifying Range Rover Attack Arrested
Cruz got hit by the Range Rover for this brake check and was later hospitalized and released for minor injuries, reports the New York Post.
Also, how does a guy on a bike think brake checking a 4600lb SUV is going to end? That was just plain stupid.1974.5 Jensen Healey : 2003 330i/5

I don't care what anyone says. I'm putting all blame on the stupid ass bikers. Even if the range hit and ran, he probably panicked and didn't know what to do. Then before he knew it it he was being chased
The video of the bikers being asshats and shutting down the streets shows they are jackasses and up to no goodYour signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
