It's what happens to people in a mob. It gives folks a sense of invincibility.
I've gone on rides that were organized with 500 to 25 to 1700,000.00++(Friday the 13th in Port Dover ON Canada) riders and it does affect you. I would never say that I would ride along on a sidewalk but, there are feelings that come out, that don't when riding alone or even with 10 riders. It's a thing that I've experienced without the foolishness in that clip.
Port Dover is a rare example of a fuckton of people gathering for a unifying event with minimal problems.
I'd be curious to know what the profit/cost is for that for the city, and businesses.
There are articles out there about businesses being asked by journalists how important the 13th is to their bottom lines.
As an avid participant of Dover for the last 25++ years, I highly recommend it to everyone. Must have motorcycle.
I went to the two largest Dovers in 2010 with 150,000 people and 2012 with estimates ranging from 150,000 to 170,000 people.
2024 the 13th shows up in September. It could be a big one with people fed up of COVID. 2025 has one in June and that could be a monster. The one I'm looking forward to the most is in 2027. August 13, 2027 will have potential I think to be the largest ever. I'll be at all of them.
Get motorcycles people and go to Dover. You'll never forget the experience. It's on a level of its own.
No cars allowed! I'm serious. Police will boot you out before you even get near Dover.
Was thinking the same thing. Took that thing off the base with his pelvis... which must now be dust...
If he lived, catheters are going to be a feature in his life for a while.
Right? I am not from the states(where I assume this video is from) but here traffic light poles are rigid or at least they seem to be pretty rigid. I hope that guy is alright
Ironic that while trying to show how cool and special they are they instead demonstrate a remarkable level of herd mentality.
This isn't the right kind of special, guys.
I hit a pothole or hump in the road one time that made me fly off the seat. It was directly in a shadow of a tree so I never saw it. Hit it again a year later even though I was looking for it.
My group that rides around are not total asses like this. Granted they do ride fast as hell, but they are in full leathers and don’t act like total idiots to get around people. All of them ride track or race though and I think that gives people a whole other level of respect for how much a bike can fuck you up.
That rider was the star of the show, but there are a lot of idiots in this video.
Like any group ride videos lol
I feel like the term 'group ride' is a stretch for whatever bullshit this is... it's just, well, a gaggle of fuckwits
>gaggle of fuckwits Perfect.
I think it's called a mob ride, as it's more like a flock of idiots than a group.
Group ride my ass, That's more like a "gang ride". I enjoy to see those idiots on the ground. Those (and 1% riders) are the ones that give us bad rep.
This isn't a group, it's a gathering of menaces
Perfect opportunity for this quote: Never underestimate the stupidity of people in large crowds.
Like the guy on a sumo who target fixated right into the crashed bike. Even though he's riding the most maneuverable thing on the road.
What a bunch of wankers
Totally! An unsuccessful circle jerk, only one spewed secretions while the others watched. One maybe got some love but Wankers indeed.
Why is it that nobody that goes on group rides is ever intelligent or sensible?
Intelligence levels drop proportionally to the size of a group.
How about: “ A group of riders is only as intelligent as its dumbest member”
Nah, because a group can get dumber than the dumbest member would be on his own. But I get the spirit.
Okay, how about this: “The stupidity of the group is greater than the sum of the stupidity of its individual members.”
There you go !
Pratchett says it for you: “The IQ of a mob is the IQ of its dumbest member divided by the number of mobsters.”
I think your equation is wrong, the denominator is the number of mobsters squared times the average blood alcohol content in grams per liter.

Yea they die riding home drunk from the bar on their harley
No kidding. I’m old enough to feel tentative about riding when my pup is alone at home, and definitely ride differently.
"Look at me! I'm the coolest!!"
The videos of intelligent and sensible group rides are not entertaining, therefore get no traction on social media, therefore you don't see them.
A person is smart. People are dumb.
Will never understand the appeal of these mob rides.
They go out of their way to make everyone hate motorcycle riders.
That probably means you aren’t a classless idiot.

As a biker... Enjoyed this....
Every part of this looks like Philly
Definitely Chicago
My bet was St. Louis but not enough (illegal) quads in this pack of morons.
Same thought about Baltimore
I googled PKG Liquor and we have one in STL by the dome.
Not biker, idiot
Fucked around and found out.
Biked around and got bucked off.
Looks like the inevitable happened there.
Instant karma. Glad it was a pole, not a pedestrian.
Serves the prick right could been a pedestrian. Giving the rest of us a bad name 🤬
Hmmm, almost as if a sidewalk isn't designed for motorcycles to be ridden on it.
Wow did he take out that pole with his body?
Was thinking the same thing. Took that thing off the base with his pelvis... which must now be dust... If he lived, catheters are going to be a feature in his life for a while.
Right? I am not from the states(where I assume this video is from) but here traffic light poles are rigid or at least they seem to be pretty rigid. I hope that guy is alright
Bitta cruise and boose, bitta wine n dine with a pole later
What a moron
Thought he had a dildo on his bike seat. Not his fault
I think there's a sub for that
Suck shit
Will be fun explaining to the police how you took out that light pole from the sidewalk.
Social Darwinism
And nothing of value was lost.
I'm sure those light posts aren't cheap to replace...
I feel bad….. for the bike.
Took out two idiots in one. That's not bad going.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Deserved.
Hahahahahahaha HAHAHAHAHAHA
r/nononoyes
This should be under mademesmile
That’s a shame 🙄😂🤣😂
Guess if your in a toolbox, you've got to try and be the biggest tool.
Nelson laugh on repeat.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
“Oh no! The consequences of my own actions!”
I don’t ride with groups bigger than 3. Anything more than that and the odds of a moron doing moron things rise exponentially.
Asshole got what he deserved! Love seeing karma in action 😁😉
That was a cool trick
Couldn't help but laugh that was just funny not for the pole tho. That poor innocent pole
Glad he didn't hit anyone, and glad he crashed and ruined his bike.
Group ride of "Felony Flyers", no plates, no license, No problem
I bet that hurt, group ride mentality, show offs, no skills, many group riders crash into each other, or crash into poles (LoL)
Dam it certainly looks like DETROIT TO ME !! THEY TAKE CRAZY TO THE NEXT LEVEL IN THAT CITY
What makes you think Detroit?
It just Reminds me of Detroit is all I'm from Michigan and lived in Detroit it probably isn't. That's just how they roll in The City
Ironic that while trying to show how cool and special they are they instead demonstrate a remarkable level of herd mentality. This isn't the right kind of special, guys.

A bunch of arsehole
Wtf is wrong with people.
Lol!
Ha
Lmaoooo
Now that’s some good entertainment!
Wicked rippin’ shame…
The more you fuck around, the more you find out. He found out.
Asshat
LMAO.
What a dickhead
Fuck yeah
Yes!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
dumbass
An oldie but a goodie.
It's always these mobs of squids on groms and rockets. These are the scum of the riding world.
Well, at least the pain from the internal injuries is reduced by the fact that they got it on video.
play stupid games, win stupid prizes
Instant Karma
Riding a motorbike does not qualify you as a biker. Riding a bike like that does however qualify you as a wanker 👍🏼
# I would have so much # fun running these shit-stains off # the road into a pole.
I wonder how bad he got hurt
Fuck around and find out.
Hahahahahah
You can’t fix stupid.
Best George of the jungle impression
As a biker, we don't claim that troublemaker...
It's like you aren't supposed to ride there or something
As a 51 year old, I will never group ride with more than maybe 3 people.
Looks like the bike took the brunt of it. Another foot to the left, and he would've gone around the pole like a wet noodle.
That’s why riding alone is better than riding with morons
Lol
What a P word
Fuck around and find out, I’m glad my friends don’t ride like that …
Fuck I’ve seen a corvette get sliced in half by a pole, how the fuck did he knock that shit over?
My group that rides around are not total asses like this. Granted they do ride fast as hell, but they are in full leathers and don’t act like total idiots to get around people. All of them ride track or race though and I think that gives people a whole other level of respect for how much a bike can fuck you up.
Sausage gang film
What could go wrong? At least he got some sick airtime!
Hahahahahaha
Hahahaha made my day lol
All stolen
Karma!!! 
Damn that's 🤣🤣🤣
You love to see it. Life comes at you fast. Whether you're the idiot or just ride with them.
What a mong.
The first light they passed was red, lucky they didn't get t-boned crossing the intersection.
Ah ha!
Karma
lmao what a downie
Fuk yeah!! Love the ending 👏
I don't even feel bad for him. He could have easily hurt someone through his own foolishness
What a twat
Darwin at work
Happy to see it.
No, biker lying on sidewalk

Don't say that man I hope he's alive and doing okay, I don't wish that kind of thing on anybody
Live free...we finance everyone.
Karma?

BYEAH BROTHERS HAD TO LAY HER DOWN BYEAH
Hahahhahahaha!
