While riding in South Dakota at Get on ADV FEST I had an "encounter" with a gentleman in a side by side. The trails where great in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Ran into a bunch of SXS's over the day and never had a problem. Then this guy came along... Road rage, or Trail rage, he had it. Mad at another biker for some reason he swerved at me?? Then yelled at me and had a big fit. What would you do?

Bet his bill is dew and hes got no cash
Jake handled it well. People make mistakes, and they're embarrassed later. In the store, it's good to just let small stuff slide. People love being self righteous no matter what.
I love how a random guy road rages and somehow Dan gets thrown right under the bus
Dan. The perpetual villain. Ever since he took a sharpie to a motorcycle.
Well Dan was thrown under the bus because it was Dan, Dan was the driver he flew across the country to rent a blue sxs and road rage
He literally explained exactky how dan is
hahahahahah
Talkin real sense here Jake. It’s hard to tell but it sounds like his lady friend was yelling at him as well. Handled it very well. 👍
Yeah she was. Felt bad for her honestly.
Lol not too hard to tell. She was yelling stop over and over. Dude was tilted bad.
Yeah she was telling him off, and for some reason, this guy was miserable and wanted to take shit out on other people.
This is the main difference between Jake and other motovlogers. Jake, while a hooligan at heart, is far more mature then anyone nowadays and is a good model for dealing with ass hats.
I guess it depends on who you watch.
Be like jake
His girl was fed up with his BS too. She certainly said something to him which is why he chilled out at the gas station.
That’s what I was thinking
I know that dude he's a fkin narsacist psycho.
The SxS community has a serious problem with drunk driving, leads to shit like this. Did a couple long organized rides and there were several that were hammered drunk within a couple hours that rode all day and became a liability to everyone else.
Drunk was my 1st thought too watching this clip
Yeah I did a sxs for 2 years before I got tired of the petulant drunk man child crowd and bought a dual sport.
@@ndlsjk I took a trip out to Little Sahara and I promptly noped out of the after dark ride, everyone was shitfaced and being super dangerous. Not gonna total my machine like that.
@@caleb30 Yeah all of the larger group rides around here stopped happening as of a couple years ago for quads and SxS. The machines are too powerful and too heavy to be treating them like a toy - I drove my SxS sober and STILL ended up with rzr arm requiring surgery. About the only organized larger rides I know of have cops with breathalyzers and on the trail or are dirt bike only hare scrambles and the such.
Just about every time I see a group of SxS’s or ATV’s they’re drinking. And it’s not like they’re casually sipping on one. They’re throwing em down. 🤷♂️
Jeez calm down bud 😂
One of the biggest reasons my wife and I quit riding the street was bc of drivers like this. Sad you still have to deal with it off-road too. You handled it well though, glad all is well bro.
The streets are so bad now. Everyone’s manic, on drugs, and or playing with their phone. I’m going to a Supermoto track tomorrow. It will probably be the safest you can be on a bike now haha
@@TheGardenSnakeno doubt. There’s idiots everywhere but I definitely find it limited at the track or trails.
Damn dude, dont let idiots make you not ride anymore. Get back on the road my guy!
@@Chillinjjv I can see it scaring people away from riding. It sucks, but now with all these youtube shorts showing the small group of motorcyclists that are dicks and mess with people in cars for no reason, it kinda ruins it for all of us. I see so many comments how "all riders think they are above the law! Good for that person to hit them and their bike!" It's wild how that can be seen as a logical sentence with thousands of likes. I'll have cars try to mess with me just because I ride a motorcycle and they've had one bad experience with a biker or watch those shorts. If that happens I just pull over and let them go on their way. Not worth my life no matter how much in the wrong they are and my actions would be justified.
Don’t quit my friend!!!!! The world is slap full of imbeciles. The fact decent people like you and the wife stopped riding just increased my chances of meeting a raged out ken on the trail so get back in the game and enjoy life. We need y’all!!!!!!!
The saddest part is that it’s a fun day and the dude is in a nice side by side with his girlfriend or wife.. no matter what happened the dude looks like a insecure child that didn’t get his way for acting like that in general but it’s a bit double when you know he’s on a trail with a badass toy and with his significant other which is the best time you can have..
"Am I him?" solid line Jake
I am in fact not him
@@TheGardenSnake you are himothy
I used to drive my sxs in the woods then I grew up and got a dirt bike. Most of the guys on 4 wheels are so shit faced they won't even remember yelling at you like that.
Guys in a cage* don't lump all 4 wheels OHVs into the same category. Us quad guys know trail etiquette. We'll at least those of us on sport quads
I have street bikes, dirt bikes, ATVs, and a side by side. I have to say way too many sxs drivers are ruining it for everyone. Ruining the trails, endangering others with their reckless actions, and with their superior attitudes. Let’s face it, any gerbil 🐹 can purchase a sxs and head out to make an a$$ of themselves.
I wouldn't say the dudes on race ATVs should be grouped in, but all Utility ATV and SxS trail riders drink way too much in my neck of the woods
@pulse3732 facts. I race and my main thing when riding trails is ride smart and look out for others. I still haul ass but make sure not to fuckin nearly kill anyone
Deescalation is the right choice 99% of the time. I appreciate you putting this video out there showing how it can be done. Good on ya.
Jake, in my experience making people look stupid is way better than fighting them lol. Some people you just can't reason with.
Dude as a parent, I definitely see your side WAAAAY better than the road rage side. Thinking through the scenario is definitely the best version of that situation
Youre not you when youre hungry. What he needs is a snickers bar
Honestly this is the wise dad advice the riding community is missing today! God bless you Jake!
Well explained and well played Jake. Not everyone would have handled it that way, but for pretty much all the reasons you mention in this video, it's truly the only and best way. Props!
Your 110 percent right, de-escalation is the best way to deal with someone who can't control themselves.. good job!
I think you handled it perfectly by deescalating. He expected you to immediately get to his level of anger, but you did the opposite, and it confused his tiny brain.
You handled it perfectly. Way to represent our community.
i think you handled it great. i'm glad i didn't have this experience while i was there. i did see a crap ton of ATV pulling into a rental place though so i assumed all the bad drivers were tourists who didnt know how to drive correctly
Much respect for how you handled this confrontation. You never know what someone is carrying or willing to lose just to hurt you in anger. I always act respectful to angry people in cars/trucks when I’m on my bike to defuse the situation. It’s not worth getting run over or shot, and most people will feel like they are the asshole when they calm down later.
At the gas station he was probably just embarrassed how crazy he acted .
BRAVO! Well done. It’s refreshing to see people (you) keep a level head. Especially one who has a massive outreach to people who will, more than likely, find themselves in a similar situation.
Jake the garden snake tool don’t tread on me to all new levels 😂
Huh, I knew there was a reason I subbed to you over 10 years ago! Glad to see you’re doing well and still ripping. You handled this situation very well and represent the moto community in a great light! Haven’t watched you in years, glad this came across my recommend hopefully this comment pushes it to a few more old fans too!
Some people don't understand taking the high ground until they have to raise children. You explained this scenario really well, clearly and calmly, and explained the perspective you took really well. It's very respectable and hopefully an effective message. Great Job! Thank you.
Man you saying "I'm gonna call him Dan" I saw that shit coming from a MILE away, had me geekin.
Well done. Really was handled with love and thats the way to do it.
Also the fact that you had the balls ro be in the store with him shows how tough you really are
Always appreciate your real world experience and perspective on things. Keeping it real and honest!! Be safe out there man! Keep up the great content!
I'm impressed with your patience here. I have trouble doing that well with someone yelling at me.
You handled that very well! I actually was there riding an Africa Twin - my first offroad riding and absolutely loved it. Awesome event!
Im old enough to have been in similar situations and deescalating the situation is infinitely more satisfying. I'd probably have gone one step further and approached him at the gas station, apologised that the situation happened and acknowledge that he he got scared when your mate went past... that right... acknowledge that HE got a fright. That works. People just want to know that others understand them. A quick explanation of how the others let you past and you expected the same of him and how venerable we are on bikes against their tanks. I think people learn. People do react like that when they get a fright. Education is key.
I also think guns makes zero difference (except the consequence of escalation) in this type of situation. If more people learned how to deescalate, there would be less situations to do it for.
Great video.
The Dan comment killed me absolute gold! i thought of Dan looking at that dudes glasses
Good job de-escalating Carmageddon Dan.
This is the reason I love your channel so much
You don’t ride our trails like that….oh boy…there is always the one, has to be
As soon as he said that… 🙄
The irony is the locals and Rangers I have talked to are sick of the side-by-sides.
Thats crazy having side by sides on same trails and 2 way tracks! Over here on trail rides its always one way only and just bikes!
Perfect mindset especially if you do carry. And I have a feeling you do haha. Anybody ever recognize you in a shooting class? 😂
I think you’ve got a great mindset Jake and handled it very well. I hope something similar never happens to me, but if it does, I hope to handle it the same. Life ain’t a John wick movie. The #1 goal is for you to get home and in 99.99% of these situations deescalation is the best way to get there. Thanks for the breakdown and stay safe brother
Bless you, Vlogfather. Handled it like the champion you are.
He did not have SXS to protect him while you were in the shop.. 😂😂
I envy your ability to stay calm. It's hard to do in the heat of the moment.
I've had cagers get bent at me because another bike that I had nothing to do with blew by and scared the driver. Some folks just have "fight or flight" reactions to things like that. With emotional maturity comes the ability to tamp that down. If someone actually does something dangerous, by all means let them know you don't appreciate it, but don't try to wreck them. No winners that way.
And this is why I ride solo. Far away from anyone.
Bro, I can't say I would have handled the situation that well. Good on you sir. 👏
never expect your "friends" to be of any help when shit hits the fan. protect your neck and thats it.
Interactions like this is why you will almost always find me with a g19 on my hip with a pair of handcuffs.
Oh, the stories I could tell from over 4 decades of riding. Some people don't know how to have fun and don't want anyone else to have any fun either. If you can't have fun in a cool looking side by side like that, you are incapable of having fun. I seem to run into one of these types every few years. You handled it excellently. These guys want you to do something back to justify and further fuel their anger.
Jake you handled that situation the right way. Remember he is "a local" you (Jake is) are the outsider, people how do you think it would work out, for our hero?
Jake you can tell the voice that you were hopping to cultivate in him took root was in the shop, him not looking at you was the reality of his actions registering. The best way to win a fight is avoid it. If it comes down to a fight never throw the first punch but be always be ready to throw the last punch. But always remember what the goal is ladies and gentlemen it is to go home at the end of the day/trip.
The old man advice for the day.
Remember have fun and leave them with a smile.
You handled it perfectly with the conditions at hand
"I dont give a fuckin love it" 😂😂😂
Love how you handled it, did everything correct in my eyes.
life advice disguised as moto content, thank you jake.
Definitely a no win situation. Dude said he didn't see him coming. Best thing he could have done was to talk to him at the next stop. Not many adults in the world today.
Way to go, I don't see that Situation Situation couldn't be handled better
It never pays to escalate a situation. Like you said you never know what the other person is capable of. Especially somone that has no control of his emotions.
You are absolutely right. We can way too easily give in to rage in return. You were right and probably got through to them
4:41 something tells me this ain’t the first time this man has ruin his own good time before
dude good work taking the high road my guy
WWJD " what would jake do" make us some bracelets lol. Your a better man than me I need to be more patient. I think you handled it just right.
I remember my first beer 😂
You did the right thing,you have nothing to prove,and you're the bigger man in that situation. Remember ego is for wimps.
You're right Jake, all around, my 24 year old race bike riding ass probably would've reacted like a 24 year old race bike rider lol.
But THIS is how you correct someones garbage behavior, also great job breaking it down so people can understand how you went about it.
That was a master class in how to handle a Guy like that. I needed that lesson.
I enjoyed meeting you at ADV Fest. Nothing about your personality would result in a fist fight. Intellectually you don't stoop that low.
The type of sunglasses, his facial hair, and the bright blue pos the road rage guy has tells me all I need to know.
You did exactly what you were supposed to do, try to calm things down. There's always a crazy butthurt in an event... that one it was this dude 😂
He was probably chill in the store because his wife reemed him a new one 😂
Anybody that thinks that escalating to violence over this is an idiot. You handled it perfectly.
Great handling and explanation.
It looks like it was a fun event. Maybe someday...
I stopped my road rage when I realized a couple extra seconds in traffic isn't worth the stress. I'm pretty aware of my surroundings and expect others not to, especially cyclist and Prius drivers.
Good video on this. Have had similar situation happen. On and off road. And it’s harder to keep your cool in situation than it is to get violent. 👍.
This happened last month.
It's about 11:30pm and I just got off work. I was tired and just wanted to go home but I wanted to pick up a beer beforehand so I stopped at a gas station. As I rolled up at the parking lot, some guy in his car came my way with no lights on so I revved up my engine a little to get his attention so he see's me. I noticed he stopped while I was getting off my bike and once I did, he THEW his car in reverse and parked right next to me so I jumped back on and quickly road away to the stop sign towards the main road. The guy again drove up next to me yelling at the top of his lungs "WHATS YOUR PROBLEM WHY ARE YOU RIDING LIKE A RETARD". I really didn't want to argue let alone fight so I calmly said "you came at me with no lights on, I was only trying to make myself seem bro just go away before I call the cops". He left in a hurry after that driving crazy down the road and all I could think to myself was ..I just wanted a beer 😂.
Haha little tiny guy with a haircut from a blind barber. What a little tiny man. Jake you did something I couldn't do. Drag the punk out of his barbie car.😂
Well done sir! We need more people like you!
Bravo man, we are growing
Your right on the money. That dude drives a lifted pick up and tailgates everyone he comes across. He also speeds up when someone goes to pass him on the highway then slows back down when the guy gets back behind him.
Had an a hole who was hauling unsecured wood do that to me on a 2 lane 55mph hwy. I was on my motorcycle and ended up behind him coz he was doing 45. I noticed the wood flapping around in the wind about to fly out of the truck. Which was why he was only going 40-45 in a 55 holding up traffic. Coz he didn't want the boards to fall off. So everytime I got a chance to pass, he'd speed up. Then slow back down. I finally got passed him, wanted to F him off but didn't. He might had just been too stupid to realize he was being stupid.
12:22 Exactly. It doesn't matter how well trained you are, there's always a chance that something goes really wrong. Even as someone who carries, that is a LAST line of defense that I train with so that hopefully I can squeak out of a bad situation should I ever fail to avoid it in the first place (ideally I just flat out avoid it by any means necessary).
I really needed to hear this bless u
De-Escalating .. Wow that's a Novel Idea.. you should suggest that one to Police Officers..
I had some assclown do something like this the other day. Arizona legalized lane filtering in stopped traffic a little while ago, and I was doing that respectfully and under 15 mph in stopped traffic. Dude comes flying up in the turn lane 2 lanes over cussing up a storm about me "riding like a f------ idiot in traffic."
You can't reason with dudes like that. They're needlessly angry and they're not gonna listen to you no matter what you say. In the end, just keep it chill and roll on. I wages and blew him and kiss and he got even more mad 😂
I'l never understand how people out there are this angry and this wreckless.
Honest to god. Like several people have said, lay off the booze. It doesnt make you a better person. Ever
His last was clearly telling him "please just stop".
"put a helmet on" haha
Was that Loyd Christmas lol
Lmao!!
Honestly just staying calm is the better way. If the other person makes a different move to further try and harm you by throwing punches then defend yourself.
Never get in a fight with a complete stranger if you can avoid it. You have no idea who you are dealing with.
You brought on the Buddha. Smart choice mon.
What a tool, hate trail users like him. Great way of handling it Jake.
Sxs guy is the patron saint of daddy’s money. 🤣🤣🤣
Respect man you're 100% right. You get older you get smarter and more respectful yourself. Being a family man you should be more so who knows maybe you got though to him 🤔
Very well done descalating the situation.
I can't believe Dan would do something like this.
A man that can't control his emotions is no man at all. He's a little boy in an adult body.
Ive never ridden a RAZR or participated in anything like this but I don't understand how a guy can be that pissed off while doing what looks extremely enjoyable. I hope he gets whatever is grinding his gears straightened out.
5:05 his rage had me dying laughing.. jesus
never been good at controlling my rage in situations like this. typically I just take off but that is hard to do when your riding with someone. nothing better than not letting them see your anger and going full dad mode though.
I’m a month away from 66. Out on a nice leisurely country ride on my ‘23 Grom. Came up to a T intersection, turned left onto the main road with speed limit of 60kph. There was a car behind me also turning left. This turn is on a blind hill with solid line markings. This prick decides to pull out and pass me! Forced me off the road and an oncoming car the same thing! A sudden waft of cannabis emanating from the passer.
I was so enraged I was numb! And this prick was as old as I am Lol!
I was ready to pull that prick out and bust him up. I might be 66 but a fit survivor of four older brothers and 45 yrs of construction so have no concern about my ability so I punch the throttle…on my Grom…my 125cc Grom….
Brrr-zzz-rrRR-ding-ding! Lol man I was PISSED!
But I sure gave him a piece of my mind!🤣👴🏻🇨🇦
I garuntee he was pissed because of the dust from your buddy passing him. An like you said had been dealing with that all weekend, where he's not used to it. Zero excuse to act like a complete ass like that though. I unfortunately run into these types almost everytime I hit my local off road park. And for some reason it's always guys in a brand new SXS. They spend so much on them an some guys try to treat them like a rolls Royce 😂 like dude why buy something for 50k that's meant for off road an then drive it like a grandma an get mad at everyone else for driving theirs like its meant to be. Btw you handled this PERFECTLY. Although after him trying to run you off the road I would of waited until he was out of his machine to confront him.
It looks to me like Mr SxS was not in his right faculties and was probably NOT paying attention to his surroundings. He was startled and being, maybe, impaired and a hotheaded SxS owner (aren’t they all? THATS A JOKE kinda) couldn’t let that slight go unaddressed. You my friend handled this perfectly. He has been shown to the world for who and what he is.
Knew dude was gonna be a douche when I saw the lack of helmet and goggles 😂
Jake, you called me out. I was thinking, "Man, I would have socked that guy in the jaw!" Hahaha, you did the right thing. I've found most SxS guys to have this same mentality though, they are dangerous as fuck, and typically... "Don't give a fuck!" Especially out in the dunes where I ride.
Hey! Install a hidden can of bear spray on the back of your bike that you can release with a push of a button if a Road Warrior or Hells Angel is ever after you.
It would make a good how to video!
I think that could get me shot
