Yea well I was drowning in pc here... Even when they admit to breaking the speed limit, they feel the need to explain that it was in some area that made it somehow okay or justified! I know I'm an asshole and a squid, etc but I've brought the front wheel down at faster speeds than some of these guys with liter bikes! I don't know if they're being sheeple and acting all "PC" or if it's "old guy with a Porsche" syndrome.

130-ish (indicated) on a friend's SuperHawk on a ride out to Leakey..

120-ish (again, indicated) on the Duc sometime last year.

Not something I do often.. I generally like having myself and my bike in one piece and not impounded.
