OK I'm man enough to concede that these guys have giant brass ones compared to me.

NFW I could ride like at speeds that.  On a straightaway.  On a closed course.

But there they are, elbow to elbow, dragging plastic at twice the speeds I rarely visit for more than a few seconds at a time.

The first rider is damn lucky he didn't lose his head, literally.

cool video, thanks

Think it would have been actually removed?  Or more likely just squished like a rotten cantaloupe dropped on the sidewalk on a hot summer day?
