Oh I was just a bit defensive about my friends who ride brakeless to help further my point. I know people who ride brakeless in what I feel is a safe and responsible manner. I do believe it is possible to ride brakeless safely. I generally don;t care if people ride brakeless. This is the first time I've actually seen some crazy reckless brakeless person. Whenever I've read articles about crackdowns on brakeless fixies I've always felt like it was a bit stupid. If a guy knows how to ride his bike it shouldn't really matter was my thinking. I had no idea anyone was riding like this though. Bit of an eye opener.
