A guy like that passed me early in the morning on 495 last weekend. I was doing 65, he was doing about 135. He got nailed by an undercover cop shortly thereafter.

The thing is, that really takes no exceptional skill. I think some people feel like their Casey Stoner when they do things like that, but at no point did anything approaching skill occur.

I'll ride fast from time to time, but never with traffic like that. That's reckless and stupid.
