Fast, Reckless Wheelie in Busy Traffic Ends Just as You Might Expect, With a Crash

There must be something magic about wheeling in busy traffic. Otherwise, I sort of fail to understand what drives these fellows to take so many stupid, completely unnecessary risks, despite the odds that have alway been against them.

Frankly, I believe that this is only shallow bravado, or a pathetic attempt to show their peers that they are cooler. Unfortunately, we all know how many of these dumb runs end up with the rider properly becoming the coolest of the group, in a black plastic bag in the city morgue.

The commentary may seem a bit on the funny side but what the guy tells is the plain, common sense truth. Are a guy's health, bike, physical integrity or even life really worth the few seconds of self-righteous so-called fame?
