Just so you can see it, this is some truly bad ass riding in the rain (MotoGP). Sliding, drifting, amazing. And the Italian announcers are a crack up. I don't speak a word of italian but I'm pretty sure they're saying "this guy is molto bad ass"...

I think this is the same thing with British announcers...

PS How do you get YouTube videos to embed on MB?

Just get the embed code from the share button under the video and paste it in your message box. No extra tags needed. And yes, that is bad ass riding!

from the title I thought you had video of Scudder riding his scoot in the rain.

BTW, that was the second race of the day and, despite the fact that it looked like he was going to fly off into low earth orbit any second, Kiyo ended up winning! He crashed in the first race. Big surprise, right?

It just amazes me watching him going sideways with both wheels! Full 2-wheel drifting. And how he didn't low-side on other turns I have no idea. Just an amazing display of controlling a motorcycle.

I have to say, I've become a total MotoGP junkie. If it is on TV I am glued to it.

(And thanks jMazza. Learning, learning, learning...)

very good skills of control,control,control and control!

Yeah <yawn> this is exactly what I look like riding to work in the winter here.... exactly.

(Okay, that's badass)

eh, it's just water, now lets see some riding like that on hard packed snow! Not too many people willing to brave winter here in MN on 2 wheels.

it is impressive control for those speeds though.
