The thing that I think is so bad about this is that even if the city does build a track, trails, etc, 99% of these guys would never use it.
These guys aren't dirt bike riders desperately trying to get into MX racing or trail riding, but have no place to ride.
They are just following a new trend in trying to show off, be flashy, etc. They will keep their bikes on the city streets where they can be seen, heard, etc.
It's absolutely ridiculous the shear number of them on the highway, and the lax attitude the police are having about it. Rather than criminalize the PEOPLE doing the crime, this "look the other way" situation is criminalizing the SPORT.
The people doing it are left alone while it is the bikes that are being made out as the problem.
Nothing but pure ignorance all around; the bikers, the police...:(
But on one hand, I can imagine these guys will crash their bikes often, ride them incorrectly, and not give them the best care. These bikes can't be lasting too long, and hopefully it is only a matter of time before they become a financial liability these guys can't afford.
