Superbike riders are not famed for being the brightest of individuals. The best riders are those that can switch off the part of their brain that asks them to consider the consequences of their actions. Swinging a motorbike around a corner at 120 miles per hour is a special talent. As I stood and watched the recent British Superbike meeting at Brands Hatch I was filled with a confusing feeling. On one hand I held these men up as heroes whilst on the other I couldn’t help remember that what they were doing was a really bad idea.


A classic example of a pointless roadsign
This classic example of a pointless roadsign is from the US of A. Exactly what one is expected to do when confronted by this beauty is beyond me. Imagine pulling up to this smacked off your face on a bucket of starbucks coffee whilst your RV is stuffed full of screaming kids on their way to soccer practice. It’s roadsigns like these that makes it even easier to understand the actions of Michael Douglass in Falling Down.
I am simultaneously confused, bemused and angry at this effort. Well played USA.

Completely Pointless Roadsign - Malawi
Check out this fantastic version of a pointless road sign. STOP at the side of a road for no reason whatsoever. Genius.
It is so pointless that it has become a minor tourist attraction!
I am sure there are even more ridiculous examples out there. If you have one please submit it here.
