Did not have this on my 2024 bingo card.

 

[UncleZen]

Ummmm........yeah, I have no comment.

 

[ChiefD]

Gangs on minibikes?

He got beat up by..........the Shriners?

 

[bigbottom]

While I have no doubt that it was a harrowing incident for Ian, I think the term “biker gang” is a bit misleading in terms of imagery. They were on minibikes and a couple involved appeared to be women.

It also looks like it was Ian who initiated the physical confrontation, though it’s not clear what happened prior.

2024, I like the cut of your jib. Keep it up

There's another video of the bikes driving past him, and I think one of them was cutting in front of him, and hit his car.

He jumped out of his car, and started swinging.

This is a road rage incident, but Ian has released a statement lamenting the lawlessness of the LA streets.

Wait until you see what happens with Jeremy London and some heavily-armed chihuahuas.

"Donna Martin broke the rules! T-Bone, show Mr. Sanders why she doesn't DESERVE to graduate!"

Yeah I'd be worried about charges against Ziering.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

It's not the same scale there in Hollywood, but I can tell you that it is kind of intimidating when like thousands of those little mini-bikes come riding by in a place like Taipei. I always fear they're about to form Voltron.

The dude who drives the little bike into the back of Steve seems like they should be in trouble.

In Arizona everybody involved probably gets hit with assault and disorderly conduct charges.

 

[fruity pebbles]

The one dude was trying to ride him like a horse

 

[parasaurolophus]

Sweep the leg!

I also love how the guy that drives into him ultimately just hurts his own fellow rider.

These idiots shouldnt be on the road.

 

[General Malaise]

Was he running to the Peach Pit for backup?

 

[General Malaise]

Reminds me of the thread "How Many 3rd Graders Could YOU Take On?"

 

[The General]

One Hell's Angel or 10 Mini-Bikers?

 

[5-ish Finkle]

One Hell's Angel or 10 Mini-Bikers?

"Is Ditka coaching the mini bikers?"
"Yeah."
"Is he also mini?"
"No. Ditka is still full-sized."
"Oh, okay then. I'll go Mini-Bikers 21, Steve Sanders 10."

 

[zamboni]

Wondering if this is a publicity stunt for a Bikenado sequel with sharks slapped on the back of minibikes.

 

[Gally]

At least it wasn't a group on rascals going after him at a strong 5 mph.

Costanza at his finest, pretending to be handicapped for a handicapped bathroom and picking a fight with old people - which he loses.Go buy the episodes on D...

[Courtjester]

And the biggest debate about this on social media is why did he leave his child alone in the car. His defense was he was trying to draw the bikers away from his child and the detractors are ripping him apart for leaving her unguarded in the car.

It may appear funny on first blush, but this is actually a fairly big problem in some of the larger cities with groups like these on quads and mini-bikes terrorizing people on the road. It has been around for quite awhile--look back at old DMX videos and it kind of glamorized this lifestyle many years ago.

 

[Nigel]

Towards end of vid guy giving chase puposely re-grips a helmet in a way clearly in prep to bash IZ’s skull. Was nearly much uglier. And if the slide tackler (impressive effort!) succeeded he was also toast.

Pretty horrible experience for the daughter.

 

[Alex P Keaton]

I like how one of the riders tries to hit him and falls down instead

 

[fruity pebbles]

The girl in the pink punching like my six year old.

 

[IvanKaramazov]

Well, "Peach Pit" and "Donna Martin graduates!" are already taken. Any decent Sharknado references to be had?

 

[massraider]

Someone bumped his car with their mini-bike, and he jumped out of his car and attacked them.

That's what happened.

I do like how all the entertainment shows are backing him as the victim because he’s a celebrity. I get these bikes are annoying as **** and one hit his car but he’s the one who jumped out and started laying hands on people. Looking at the video, they were of no physical threat to him before that.

 

[Wrigley]

how many minibike gang members can you beat up?

 

[New Binky the Doormat]

this should be renamed, "two guys and a fat girl"

It's very weird that he's playing the victim here - they weren't harassing him at all, at worst they were driving recklessly. One hit his car and he lost his mind and ended up putting himself in a bad situation. I mean it was two small guys and a woman - he looked a little foolish running away like a scared rabbit once they started hitting back.

I thought the same - seems like he was looking for attention and it worked.

It could be argued he caused the actual traffic accident as well - although the dude trying to squeeze through was being reckless.

We don’t know if they were or not. If they were weaving in and out of traffic for 3-4 lights prior, it could be harassment. The video is just catching the end.

I guess that could be true - it didn’t seem like it from the video and his other actions tell me he’s likely not being truthful, but the truth is you’re right I don’t know that for sure.

Will there be a movie of the week? And who will portray Ian?

He released a statement (nice enough to soundtrack it for everyone) and didn't mention previous harassment. He just straight up lies about getting out of his car to 'assess any damage", when he got out of his car to strike the person on a minibike.

The harassment would be the kids riding in and out of lanes, and splitting the lanes.

California allows lane splitting.

Yes, but if they are splitting and dodging in and out of traffic, that’s different.

That’s annoying and dangerous for the riders, not really harassment.

I often work in Philly where there are groups of 20-50 guys on dirt bikes and ATVs tearing through the city weaving all over, swerving at people, damaging cars, etc. I can speak first hand that It’s scary and no joke.

This ain’t that.

That's NOT harassment - it's possible reckless driving. Harassment would be targeting him specifically.
