I don't ride quite that aggressively, but yeah, i run lites and stop signs all the time. the size of my balls is growing too, so i'm starting to ride between lanes of traffic downtown.

Really bummed I can't get the Windows MP to work on my Mac Mini with Tiger 10.4. Wish Microsoft would get off its a$$.
The good news is I have a wound-up track fork on my ride now.
I have ridden crazier than on those Dig vids, sure. Throwin' down DC's Fastest Messenger 3 times. Still roll brakeless riding fixed nearly every day age 35. Scared myself bad a few times just today. For sure better to run the red and get ahead. But take care and see everything and leave yourself a way out. Don't do things blind, or eventually you'll suffer.

I suggest the pacer has a look at the UCI rules for pacing.
