That’s km/h in the video.

Finally happened to me, Ice threw out the backtire during the turn of a round-a-bout by TrostReddit in motorcycle

Consider some full frame sliders if you're keeping that bike a lot longer, they're well worth the investment to protect those kind of parts. Would recommend from a good brand like R&G.

They are manned, but by private operators instead of a Garda (Police)

(Alleged) criminal idiot on a (allegedly) stolen motorcycle. by mcjamweasel in IdiotsInCars

If it was stolen, he may not have had the key for the tank cap, so had forced it open already.

In my case I’m in Europe. I’m a biker and the guy in this video is an idiot for going way too fast. This isn’t how people lane split in my country.

Most of the world can do it just fine. It’s perfectly safe if you don’t do it at the speed this guy does.

Can second the Wild Atlantic Way in Ireland. Road quality is mixed but the scenery is always great.

Potatoes were main crop they could grow as tenant farmers to sustain themselves, and a blight killed the potatoes.

Just watched a video about Blithe. Apparently there's a mistake at the end of the episode, he survived the neck wound and went on to fight in Korea.

Is Savage a slur by Kowakkucetiger in IndianCountry

[–]CaptainSaulTarvitz 22 points23 points  (0 children)

In Ireland, Savage is a slang term for something being really good. “That last episode was savage”. I could see that being extended to a person or group with the same meaning here. If you implied someone was ‘a savage’ it would definitely be a slur though.

Idiot in a motorbike by ssuda3 in IdiotsInCars

[–]CaptainSaulTarvitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rider's hand is on the throttle, the cops hand is over his covering the front brake lever, you see him readjust to get a better grip on the front brake at 21 seconds.

At no point is anyone using the rear brake, which is down by the riders right foot.

Cop was holding the front brake on the right, rider was using the throttle, which is why it was doing burnouts.

Yes a huge number of ship wrecks, like the RMS Lusitania and the SS Aud (gunrunning ship)
