Road Bikers (2009 film)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This is almost certainly a hoax. It cites no sources, there is no mention in IMDb or in Rotten Tomatoes, and it does not appear in its supposed stars' filmographies. The article is the only contribution of its author and has also been edited by  whose other contributions are to film hoaxes like Doomsday Movie, also at AfD. If not a hoax, it fails WP:NFF.

 * Delete: this is blatant misinformation IMHO. Nom lays it out well.  Even if this was real, shooting would have to start for the project to warrant an article.  Also, the rating reasons presented are those of South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut.  Cliff smith  talk  14:52, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete A hoax (and not even a good one). No film has ever been rated before it was filmed. the prod was removed by an IP which created the Doomsday Movie hoax as mentioned by JohnCD above. If it is real, it should still be deleted for the same reasons why the article's creator was blocked: WP:COI and WP:ADVERT. Doc StrangeMailbox Logbook 15:39, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as yet another User:Lyle123 hoax. I used to deal with this monkey back when I was a regular editor of this site.  I still pop by on occasion and I found his blocked sock on the blocked account list.  His socks are easily identified as he usually incorporates the name of a movie in CamelCase followed by the "year of release."  --70.104.7.231 (talk) 15:53, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: The cast list, not coincidentally, is the same as for Wild Hogs.  His MO is to take a legit article or subject, rename it, add some non-existent studio cooperation and pass it off as a "new" project. --70.104.7.231 (talk) 17:26, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
