Disgraceful behaviour,as Visfix says , gives motorcycling a bad name.
They should be stopped,banned from driving for life and have their bikes seized and crushed. This comes from someone who is bike fan too.

Let's hope there was a follow up and they get what they deserve.

With any luck they have appeared in court already and are fumbling for the soap in the shower as we speak.

Around here the problem is teenagers on 50cc scooters that sound like a wasp in a tin can. No road sense what so ever.

Back in my biking days the test was a joke, you rode around a set route on local streets and the examiner assessed you as you passed him! I decided to improve my skills and became a member of both the IAM and ROSPA having passed their tests. I still use a lot of the skills gained in those days, now and then I employ the commentary method, describing what you can see in front of you.

To ride like that is sheer lunacy.

Anybody with a decent bike lets it loose now and then but as you say Andy, there's a time and place for it. They obviously left their brains at home, flashing between two cars could have caused a driver to swerve and lead to a major incident.

"Is adrenaline brown"
That was the sign a a bikers garage wall, couldn't help but laugh, but there is a serious message behind that joke.
His adrenaline rush was at every other road users expense,.
I believe if motor cyclists really want a adrenaline rush, they shoul go somewhere like an old airfield where they could drive up and down the runways at break neck speeds all day long, and perhaps to add a bit more adrenaline, someone could perhaps drive a tank access the road in front of them.
