just wondering if anyone would be interested in this...
finding a nice long straight road for a bit of wheelie practice with photos, videos taken etc.

i get the impression that they wont really approve of a rideout like this, hence making this one for people who dont really like riding in groups ;)MattGreaves wrote:Don't forget the Cornwall rideout on the 19th!!

I'd never commit to a ride that is stated to involve wheelies 
. Great way of incriminating yourself! May be out on 18th though, not wheelying, riding

i watched the video that the 'unknown rider' posted, it seems who ever he/she is just likes to wheelie, leave his/her mates in traffic and repeatedly ride the same road.
top person to ride with no doubt.
have fun on the back wheel, i'll be the one passing you with a license lol

No offence here man, but you sound like a bit of a dick - and just from this thread alone i wil probably avoid rideouts that you will be a part of from now one becuase you sound like a rekless, and quite frankly dangourous rider. I cant see the point in just going out for a ride to wheelie down a stright road - how plain and boring.mattsprattuk wrote:probably not happening now as ive got a bbq to go to.

the fun in riding is in the corners
And just because someone owns an r1 dosnt mean that have to ride it like a dick ! lol

luckily for you, i dont really plan on going on any SWB rideouts as they seem pretty tame and boring. alternatively, i could come to ALL of them, so you never leave the house and become a hermit because rideouts are your LIFE!also, id like to see you wheelie around some corners at speed...
and an R1 has a rep to be ridden like that, otherwise the rider is pretty much a poser. like getting a DRZ enduro and using it to commute.
anyway, this is fun... continue
