This is from a regularly scheduled Everglades Bike Club weekend ride in Key Biscayne, USA, on a 10km stretch of road, and all the drivers know to expect it will be there in the mornings.

THANK YOU.

If an evernt is not officially sanctioned ? In my opinion ANYRHING, AND I MEAN ANYTHING, can happen in there and I wouldnt care. Unless there are kids there? I dont care for anyone there. Sorry. If anyone wants to hold a. massive event that will DEFINITELY clog up a public road or area? Yooooo you better fucking get that bitch approved first. Like the only massive public event that doesnt need to be approved is a massive public violent protest ... and thats it.

I remember watching this one video of a guy who crashed died during one of those unofficial 'street takeover' events and he ended killing a few other people there who were happily watching it and also clogging up that road and the comments were so sad for them....

uhhhh....

I find it very hard to feel sad for adults who dont tell anyone that they will clog up the public areas that WE ALL PAY TAXES FOR, , intentionally clog up a road, drive their cars in circles at irrantionally dangerous speeds, race each other on unofficial race tracks , and then end up learning the valuable lesson that 'Moving really quickly has never been a problem, its just the stopping really quickly.'
