Oh i have no problem with bikers. I dont ride one myself but i can imagine how "Fun" it can be. I just myself would not be willing to make it my primary mode of transportation. I would just like one and take it to some Forrest,mountainy highway and just experience the wind and amazing scenery. To me that sounds amazing.
I do however have a problem with Harleys like my post above pointed out.  |

Haha thought the same thing, but it also reminded me of Jay Williams, a promising young bball player out of Duke University that crashed his bike 1 year after turning pro. He suffered career ending injuries, but the Bulls decided to pay him $3 million even though they didn't have to bc riding a motorcycle violated a clause in his contract.

If Aldo wants to ride on two wheels, then he can. Motorbikes are not going to be banned over this, ladies.

if these guys were getting NBA money they'd have standard clauses in their contracts preventing them from riding bikes.
As much as I love motorcycles, everyone that rides one or knows riders, knows someone who's been severely injured or killed on them.
Glad to hear he's okay so he can wreck Edgar at 153.

You know they actually do have this kind of stuff in their contract. I remember Dana TALKING* about it during the build up to one of Donald Cerrony fights. He said the can make them give up basically everything he wants to if they have a fight coming up. |

I hope this is true. They should have some sort of leverage knowing their fighters aren't doing anything too crazy leading up to a fight. Funny it was involved with Cerroney who lives a very wild life. Motorcycles, the whole farm thing. Hell, he got even tagged by a horse to the jaw leading up to the Diaz fight. |

Well thats what it was about. You remember during one of those countdown shows they were focusing on him doing pretty much every crazy sport out there??? (Was that against Diaz??) well one of the reporters asked Dana if there is anything in their contracts that would force the fighters to not do that kind of stuff and Dana White answered with yes i could basically make them give up anything. |
