Do you know this guy? Laughing

A fugitive motorcyclist broke every traffic law imaginable on a three-hour chase involving two helicopters and seven police cars.
The biker reached speeds of 100mph and crashed twice during the rampage through Sussex, even carrying on after he lost his helmet.
He eventually ditched his bike and fled on foot after ploughing into a barrier at a Brighton city centre car park. Police are still hunting him.

I'm going to assume the bikes stolen and that he binned the helmet because he thought that they'd call off the chase.
But, but, 3 hours!

Wooo, a 3 hour 100MPH chase? That's some nice MPG.

3 hour chase, I make it around 30 miles. He was doing over 100mph.

Presumably stopped off for some shopping en-route?

One in the eye for the "Police can't chase a motorbike if you have no helmet" brigade. Laughing Dance! Razz

Might have stopped to get his hair did. Looks lustrous.

So, his bike, or is the real owner currently being stitched up with a bill for recovering it?

[cocks arm back, awaits developments]

The classic "biker" quiff was originally a product of doing 80mph+ with no helmet and oily hands. Only later did it become an affectation with brylcream and comb.

Ooh, an update in the Daily Hate article! Gotchya.

Serial stalker, already on a driving ban, total alpha.

I feel sorry for all the people that he killed after they started chasing him. May angels carry their souls to heaven. Rolling Eyes

Do keep up. They're allowed to chase if they have air support.

So it was his own bike? That he crashed twice. Then dumped. After being photographed in surprisingly clear action shots.

There's just so much stupid in this story. Please let there be more. Laughing
