some of you might remember that there was a guy on here (MEACHAM) that was part of that, he started it i think, but i don't know the whole history. but i haven't seen him on for along time. then i found this today

in Frederick, Md., a judge convicted Ben Meacham, 23, on two misdemeanor counts for his role in the death of a 21-year-old pal, who had said he wanted to do something unusual on his motorcycle because it was about to be repossessed over a loan default. With Meacham videotaping, the pal, pantsless, did a wheelie before losing control and accidentally, fatally ramming a parked truck (June). i think it's from the NY post but i'm not for sure.

 

IMO this Ben dude is in no way shape or form responsible for his friends actions. The judge should have thrown it out.

In all honesty. If a friend of mine said he wanted to do a wheelie pantsless, I'd be runin for the camera too. It's all very unfortunate.

 

that's
BTW don't get any ideas phil; i'm not buying you a new windshield

 

Yeah, i think there was a thread about this a while ago. if you read the whole story it will **** you off though. im not gonna judge people but if you can find it read it.

 

Actualy I was gonna ask you to do a wheelie buck a$$ naked, not just pantless. But only cause I know you could actually control your bike.

 

people make their own choices and choose their own destiny........

not anyones fault but the kid on the bike......


shitty situation all around......

 

Bro, Thats F'd up man, If you look on the date that **** ahppend like 9 months ago man. Meacham is a VERY good friend of mine. He never really wanted to film it but his friend thought it would be so much fun and great footage, so they id it and the kid died. He feels guilt every day of his life for this. Ive talked to him about it. His mom lives about 10 min of me here in FL so that who I go to Stuntwars with and we ride all the time when hes here. He was in NO WAY OR FORM responsible for the what heppened. IT was his friends idea, so he was doing him a favor cause the kid wanted it on tape. Next time check the dates, and get all the facts before making something look like what its not.

As for hlding it big, he works for the company, he does all the SHows, makes movies, pretty much runs it. He does documentaries on the whole cycle world. Hes a great freind and Holding it big had nothing to do with it either.

Someones got name dropin' fever. And it aint me, Teddy.B, Krohns, Suzukigrrl, Sickf*ck6969, or f4rider.

 

NEW RULE: anytime a thread turns to drama...do us all a favor and kill the thread!!! Or open your mouth and insert foot before posting something retarded!

 

SOrry guys I didint mean to blow up like that. I was in a bad mood and when I saw that thread again I did not want my boys name drug into the ground anymore than it already has. The story has been posted on like 4 sites and several times on here. I just wanted to clarify he had nothing to do with it. My bad. Didnt mean to start drama.

However on another note, me and the wife and her frind are coming to mn in aug for a few days. Im gonna try and get ahold of a bike and a available guy for her frind to ride with. Anyone down?
