Borat rides around St. Louis

Local news just ran a this story tonight. I know the mantra around here is ATGATT but seriously, you can't help but laugh at this guy.

Oh yeah.. and the quick shot where he's yelling as he sits on his bike, he's actually parked outside the dealership where I bought my Ninja from, it's one of the biggest powersports shops in the area. </cool story bro>

"you only live once"...

he should rephrase:

"you only die once"

adri99an · July 22nd, 2011, 04:53 PM

I own several "mankinis"....hahahahhaaa but when I wear one I have my Icon vest on!

Ohhh boy.

csmith12 · July 22nd, 2011, 07:42 PM

I call foul on this one.....

Cazper · July 22nd, 2011, 09:19 PM

Not exactly my outfit of choice... ever... but hey, to each their own. Hope he doesn't end up with a ton of road rash

SSR · July 22nd, 2011, 09:42 PM

well, I've seen enough pictures of girls riding 2up in a bikini. Guess it was time for a guy...

That's how it starts, fella. Next thing you know you're turning tricks in a men's room in a New York bus station!

It's never time to see a guy wearing this. Never.

Mizono · July 24th, 2011, 01:10 PM

I saw a guy the other day on the highway....in construction wearing only jeans. No shirt at all. And to make it worse he had his helmet propped up on top of his head like a hat as opposed to being on the right way.

adri99an · July 24th, 2011, 01:11 PM

Squid Alert!!!!!!!

But didn't he look soooooo cool?

Those anchors almost make actual witty comments... I guess there is a first for everything.

zilaniz · July 24th, 2011, 05:31 PM

Pretty funny but damn could you imaging the road rash if he went down

adri99an · July 24th, 2011, 05:34 PM

The mankini he was wearing is lined with kevlar-he would be just fine.

There's a guy I've seen a few times this summer, older guy, I'd say late 50's, maybe early 60's, riding around on some old cruiser. Every time I've seen him he's wearing shorts, no shirt (with his moobs flapping in the wind), a little bucket tilted back pretty much propped against the back of his neck.

Don't get me started on how awful, really just dreadfully awful our local news reporters are in St. Louis. I usually just tune in for a quick weather review and headlines but they did a lead-out on the story for this rider so I stuck around and watched it.

I've never really understood this. ATGATT arguments aside, even if you're not going to wear gear, shorts on a motorcycle (even more so on a cruiser) just looks flat out dumb. Just my opinion

So does having your helmet strapped to your passenger seat instead of on your head but I see tons of people do it haha

I've worn shorts on a quick ride - less than a half mile round trip and never over 20mph - and while I felt absolutely freaked out by the experience it was a wonderful way to air out the boys after sweating my ass off outside. Stuck my legs out to the side and feel the breeze.

CynicalC · July 25th, 2011, 12:15 PM

The dopey guy on the scene didn't get the joke about parking the bike in the shade.
