I even think it's good to have a bunch of total nutcases riding around to keep drivers on their toes, a couple of encounters with these guys and it might get drivers to keep more of an eye out for the rest of us. And they can only make non-bikestormz cyclists look better in comparison.
I think we all get tarred with the same brush though. Some teenager swerves in front of a taxi, swears at the driver and wheelies off and 5 minutes later the same taxi driver is angry and does a punishment pass on an unsuspecting commuter.

I doubt this happens. I have always been punished for my deeds even riding in group in lanes I deserve it though, how dare I ride 2 abreast in country lanes where there is hardly any traffic?!
srsly tho Bikestormz are heroes in my eyes. If they were a charity I'd donate money to them. Some of them charge £5 for a selfie so maybe I'll just do that.

I think they are a general force for good, they get a new generation into cycling and more than likely a number of them will end up on here. The attitude is inclusive and positive. I wouldn't necessarily like to be cycling around them on my nicest bike without due warning but I even think it's good to have a bunch of total nutcases riding around to keep drivers on their toes, a couple of encounters with these guys and it might get drivers to keep more of an eye out for the rest of us. And they can only make non-bikestormz cyclists look better in comparison.
The difference between these guys and the Lucas Brunelle wannabies is that these are teenagers, & they're doing what teenagers of the last few generations have all done. Many of us were running around on bmx's, skateboards and doing frankly stupid and dangerous things when we were young. That's the whole fun of it.
