Divvy + flood =

[sidewinder]

Ha ha fuck you cagers guess who's just gone through the flood no probs

Came across a flooded section of road today at least a foot deep.So there was a nice que of cars stuck in front of it and not going through.Pulled up behind them and had a moment.Got bike on the pavement water was only about 6"on it and rode past the lot of them past the main flood and on to work

Edit: the pavement was out of town so no pedestrians etc using it

Every time this has happened to me I've gone through the flood water

It's brilliant, just keep the revs up and don't forget to close your visor as I did once

Today I found it's entirely possible to wheelie a bike while fording water. Not on purpose admittedly, hit a submerged kerb or speedhump or something and didn't want to put my feet down and get them wet so gave it the beans and did the next five metre or so on one wheel.

Why do I only ever do boss stuff when nobody's around to see it? I need to start vlogging or something.

But yeah, some cars have intakes higher than on my bike but they still wuss out of driving through water. Wimps.

Fuck you and your floods.

Ripped the splitter off the front, smashernated a hubcap, fucked the zorst & created the mother of all misfires. Boggo standard 1.2spi corsa.

Conclusion - it's not cages that's the issue, it's lack of a proper run up & manfoot fail.

Probbably one of the worst good cars i've had.

Mechanicly its perfect. Reliable. Cheap to insure. Cheap to run...but its so fucking slow & boring to drive!!!

As for the wipers, please if someones got a solution! I've tried re-aligning em, shimming the arms, changed blades, crimping the shit out of the arms to get the play out & it insists on doing it. I'd taken to winding the sterio up to where i couldnt hear it, but thats just blown the drivers side speaker

Anyway, fail?! Jog on! It went through diddnt it!

My point still stands, its not cager fail, its just being a massive fag thats stopping people getting through the floods...

That video was quality

Not a car driver myself so wouldn't know really, but would doing the 4x4 thing of following the wake not work?
