What is a squid alert?In: Motorcycles |
Answer
Squid: (slang) A young motorcyclist who overestimates his abilities, boasts of his riding skills when in reality he has none. Squid bikes are usually decorated with chrome and various anodized bits. Rear tyres are too wide for their own good, swingarm extended. Really slow in the corners, and sudden bursts of acceleration when a straight appears. Squids wear no protection, deeming themselves invincible. This fact compounds intself with the fact that they engage in 'extreme riding'--performing wheelies and stoppies in public areas. Squids wreck alot. Derived from 'squirly kid' (definition taken from urbandictionary_dot_com)
A squid alert, therefore, is a way of indicating to an observer that an inexperienced rider is dangerously close to them.
