Lmao aren’t these parades suppose to be slow paced so people see what’s going on? Why the hell are you trying to overtake somebody - another cop on a motorcycle, presumably? Had to piss? Maybe shit?

Hmm, I'd have gone with "dumbass crashed his vehicle lmao" but maybe that's why I'm not a journalist
We need to shut down the bikers until we can figure out what is going on!
Incredibly ironic way to go. One more loser to mourn at the event I guess lol

This reporter has failed to mention that this location is called Bald Nob.
"Bald Knob wrecks his bike and ends his life at Bald Nob" was a way cooler headline
