Wheelie boy in Beds...

[tonyvid]

There is a future organ donor who rides the A1 in Beds in the evening rush hour who likes to demonstrate his front tyre saving skills by popping wheelies at goodly speeds - I have seen him 3 times now, usually between Sandy and the B645 where he turns off. His usual trick is to sit up your, or anyone else's chuff, at 70 and when you pull over he sticks it on the back wheel and takes off into the distance.

Has anyone else seen him and his tiny, tiny numberplate that is actually forward of the rear axle? Whilst he has a lot of "skill" I fear a smeary end soon.

If it's the guy with the 'Busa, he does the same down Sandy High Street...fool.

I guess it must be something meaty to be able to still be accelerating at oogorblimey speeds on the back wheel. The first time I saw him he was doing wheelies then hitting the brakes hard and repeating it along side a guy in a RS4, it looked like he was trying to goad him but the Audi wasn't having any of it.

Well, I saw Mr again this morning - we were all quite happily in the cruise at 70mph in both lanes and he comes shrieking through the middle at a good 100+mph. In the brief glimpse I had it seems to be a pale blue Rizla bike and that numberplate of his...it's actually right in front of the back wheel. Von, please feel his collar.

I have nothing against filtering, wish I could do it myself, but this guy takes it to a whole new level.

Dont you wish, just sometimes that you had Boudicea type chariot wheels

Maybe Clarkson had an idea with that Fiat the other night...

I think this guy will be quite capable of taking himself out on his own, I just hope that no one else is involved.

I've not seen him this last week, hopefully he slipped off somewhere in all the wet, just enough to stuff the bike and bang his plums.

Was seen on Friday on the A421, Rizla colours with a tucked plate, jeans and a t shirt. My estimate was 150mph as i had to check i was still moving!
