Come take a ride with Vegasrider on the LV Strip

Nice. It's like an advertisement for lane splitting. Nothing worse than a green light but you can't move because the whole block in front of you is blocked up too.

Many comments concerned for your safety in lane splitting, but being from CA where it's legal(ish) and having done it numerous times, there was nothing scary in your splitting shown here. All the cars you passed were going about 0 mph. No potential or space for them the hop out in front of you. That was safe.
 
It aint illegal if you dont get busted!!!!!!!! LOL THAT WAS A GREAT VIDEO!!!!!! :rockon::rockon::rockon::rockon::rockon:
 
Great video. What is the name of that song. Is lane splitting legal in any state?

Thanks, name of the song is Read My Mind by the Killers. Lane splitting is not legal in any state here in the U.S. However, in the state of California, it is defined as "permissable" under certain conditions. Just hit the search tab and you will find numerous threads regarding everything you want to know about this subject.

When I made this clip, I intended to just show off my new Go Pro Hero Camera filming at night and I just thought it would be entertaining to film the strip. I had no intentions of making this into a lane splitting video, but I guess it has turned into one. LOL..
 
Yes, lane splitting is illegal in NV, don't do it in Reno near a cop.;)

Yea I split lanes up here when necessary but get caught and you will get seriously :spank: for it. Car drivers up here get all up in arms about it too because they know its illegal. Can't say I blame VegasRider though traffic is freakin insane on the strip especially at night
 
Everyone made their videos during the day so I thought It would be different doing it at night. Taken with the ever so popular Go Pro Hero Camera. This is one of the rare times you will find me travelling along the strip. Thought it would be appropriate to add some tunes from a Las Vegas band. Just a 4 minute clip.

Thanks for posting this I must have missed this original posting. I am headed to Vegas in October and some of the people with me were talking about renting motorcycles to cruise the strip. I wasn't that excited about it because its not like most of the licensed riders don't have motorcycles at home. Maybe the traffic in this video will show them that cruising the strip isn't going to be any fun.

OCTOBER! Thats a long ways away! PM me when it gets closer so we can hook up. You can rent Harleys and even the BMW's from the BMW dealership so Bring your Gear. A trip to the Hoover Dam, and one loop around Red Rock Canyon is a must! I'll lead the way.

That video was taken on a Saturday night. Not too bad if you cruise the strip during the day, or even at night during the middle of the week. But I advise for you to be very careful, as a lot of the drivers are not paying attention as most of them are tourists and are gawking at all of the sights. Actually, better include yourself for that matter, you'll be a tourist too.
