Dirt bikers in Russia have a scary close encounter with a bear

Bears seriously need to start obeying the rules of the road. 

Just last week, Mashable shared a clip of a motorcyclist nearly striking a bear in Thailand. Apparently bears in Russia share the same respect for two-wheeled vehicles.

On a recent outing at Lake Ingozero in Russia, two dirt bikers had a very close encounter with a charging bear, which didn't seem to notice the cyclists at all. 

Fortunately, everyone walked away unscathed.
