Interesting. Any particular reason?
Don't you pay attention when you see a group of 6 or more bikes?
I have found there is a direct relation between group size and stupidity. The bigger the group, the more likely you will find someone trying to STAND OUT in the group.
When I split up to a light in the city, I'll often nose forward in order to see past the parked cars for potential red light runners.
I'm not looking to get a good jump on the light, I'm looking to make sure no one's barrelling towards the stale yellow.
It is not the people looking left and right for redlight runners. I guess you would need to SEE it to understand. I'm talking about these guys that look ALL around, behind them, ahead, all over. They are looking up, down, at suspicious bushes, you name it. They are about to either race or pull a stunt and they are looking for the cops, ANY COPS, in the area.
I call it bobble-heading because it is not only funny to watch and a very reliable indicator, but because they look like a bobble head when you whack the shit out of it. It goes on pretty much non-stop until the light turns green, then the show is on! :laughing
I just need to stay down until they take off, then I can ride up right next to them... it freaks them out. :teeth
