L and L is a bike meet, not a stunt show. People are not expecting stunting to go on. How are you supposed to get as far away as possible when a random person riding by you just pops a wheelie???
Some one pops a wheelie next to you and it goes wrong, you wont even have a second to process what is going on before your hit. You watched that vid posted right... those people went from "ohhhhh ahhhhh cool" to "omg my heart is going to pop out of my chest, that was friggen close". Not cool to force people into that situation.
Oh and here are some smilies to make everything ok...
:happy3:No they started out in a crowd then went down the aisle infront of the grocery store where more people were then they turned right where there were more people and headed straight to the traffic lights, where there were more people...Don't get me wrong, I've never been to L&L and probably won't. A buddy of mine shows up (regularly I think) and he sent me a few pics. to show me how many bikes were there. From the set up I saw in the pictures, it looks like you guys are packed in like a can of sardines. I highly doubt that someone will put on a stunt show in a very tight spot like that. From what I understood in this thread, the stunters were stunting as they were exiting the lot and the video posted showed the guy quite far from the rest of the crowd. So yes, you have lots of time to react and if you feel like there's a chance where your life is at risk then why bother going to these meets anyways?...And here are some more smilies to make everything ok...

Personally, If I was there, I would like to be as close to the action as possible. I have strong intuitions and if I feel like I don't trust the stunter or his skill level, then I'll keep my distance.
