How was it on Central? I passed this year so should I hit the next one or not. I agree it was getting out of hand with the rice bikes topping the list of going too far. Others were also getting very dangerous. I liked watching the bikes going by on the front wheel only or other stunts I've only seen in the movies. At the speeds they were going and how close to rows n rows of folks it was an accident waiting to happen. 2nd to harming or killing a bunch of folks is the bad press the Sport and Industry just does not need.

From maybe 20 feet away I watched a women get handed the keys to a full dresser bike for what must have been the first time in her life. She put it in gear and just her inexperience slide her back off the tank rolling the throttle on enough so she could not lower the rpm. She went from kinda running to face down on tank just before T-boning a parked 34 Ford Hot Rod some 250 feet in front of where she started. This had nothing to do with the Event it is just where it happened but I won't forget that sight for some time.
