Understand the furstration Warren. But, when you go to some smaller towns. No one cares if people are ridding down the road. In my home town my bro and I can ride through w/out issue. granted, we're not doin wheelies down the road either..  Don't recognize the quad though.

Small town or not, looked like a busy enough road that he shouldn't have been on it.

Although, I agree with you warren and others, who think this is not a good way to promote our sport, I'd also contend that slamming the guy will not bring him around to our perspective.

Starting a war of words will not help, just mearly segregate more an already fragmented community.

I believe more constructive commentary could help here.

+1 to that!

I agree with everyone that it is something like this that gives our sport a bad name. Think about what them people he was riding by were thinking and saying to other people. You know this had to be a small town to get away with that crap, and word travels fast in a small town. So now you potentially have half of the town talking smack about people who ride quads giving us all a bad name.

I can agree with Randy too with the small town thing. I grew up in a town of 800 people and we could ride our quads to the gas station to get gas, but we were all considerate of everyone else (go slow, wait for cars and people, NOT riding wheelies, etc..) and nobody cared. It got to be a different story though when the younger people got older and started doing this crap in town. Now if you get spotted by the sheriff that drives though town occasionally, you get a ticket and walk home to get the truck to pick up the quad while he waits for you with the quad. When we did it, the sheriff would just wave and keep going, but then he got complaints from people for people riding carelessly and it ruined it for the rest off us.  :confused: Stupid kids!

I rode a wheelie down the street on mine yesterday after washing it..because the dude down the street was cruising his 400 ex around trying to show off. LOL Police drove by shortly thereafter.  :nod: I wouldn't do it if there were people or cars on the road. We do not need any more negative publicity, I will agree.

Our town is just shy of 2000...I believe.

yeah i grew up in a small town too. my town only has 200 people in it. i know how small towns are. i know you can get away with alot. but if you notice in the video there are stop lights, turning lanes, and a butt load of cars on the highway. so for that dude to say it's a small town country is bullshit. i know you can ride through small towns but i still keep my RPMs down to avoid drawing anymore attention to myself. it just pisses me off that people ride wheelies down the street right next to on coming traffic. that's just my 2 cents.
