My personal road rage is only ever directed at people who knowingly or through their ignorance break the laws of the road to serve their own self-interest, regardless of vehicle. That said, I don't think this incident, in which this bike crew totally and illegally shitfucked the laws of the road, should be taken up as a "bikers rights" case. If some no-brakes idiot bicyclist ran a red light and got clipped by an oncoming car, I don't think the BNB crowd would be rallying around the cyclist as a "bike's rights" incident.

True, but all the advantages and protection the size of a car has, they don't have the agility and acceleration of a bike, especially these sorts of bikes. Stopping short, the acceleration and pursuit ability during the chase...that's a huge damn weapon.
