Some program on discovery about some fat yank biker festival, thousands of
fat rednecks on shite bikes.

The main event - burnouts until the tyre explodes.

They dont really understand motorcycling in the states, all chrome & no go.

I don't understand motorcycling as you seem to know it.

Riding it for a start, not doing burnouts & having fun.

It's one of the few biking events around the world that I rather fancy
attending. From what I've seen it looks like quite a spectacle.

That's one word for it...

Each to their own etc, but it seems to attract some really odd folks

What's wrong with having fun?

Burnouts were one of the essential parts of the Bol d'or for many of
the (drunk) attendees.

Well, quite, but these nutters had a competition to see who could **** the
tyre in the best way..and that seems to be the highlight of the festival.

There were a couple of shows for custom bikes, but i didnt see any other
bikes apart from cruisers doing burnouts.

You can do that at home on your drive
