Deals Gap return trip...
Ok so I fueled up just before the on ramp to 40, Prepared for take off and looked at the watch on the on ramp. 7:15. Pulled into my drive way at 20 min. to 9:00Pm. I forgot to look at my bike but I reset the trip meter just before the onramp and I think it was in the 180-190 mile range. Made one splash and go after the fuel light came on along the way.
Wide freaking open and once a civic tried to hang with me at about 140-150 range but I didn't see him for long. I must have passed him and then he came up on me all crazy in traffic so I had to make my way around and buy buy car! I'm sure there will be some haters about my speed but keep in mind I'm a proffesional bad ass and have little smarts. so no real loss to the world if I go out doing what I do. Nothing like 170+ thru a black expressway uphill turn. It was almost as fun as the dragon and after a couple days of slow turns it took me a minute to get back in the groove of low level flight.

With all these speeders on the expressways, how come the cops still patrol the backroads where I want to speed?

That must have been where they all were cause I only passed one the whole trip. And no I didnt slow down and no he didnt even hit his brakes. He was in the on comming lane.

at the speed you were going it wouldn't have done him any good, you'd be gone before he got turned around. All he could do is radio ahead of you

I was looking for the ditch patrol and brake lights but all was well. I wasnt really all that concerned to be honest. I have never had a ticket on my bike ever. Hard to believe huh?

I dont believe in a jinx... Although Trip did say "on the last run out we always take it easy... things always seem to go wrong then." right before hitting an
R1 and almost ending his carrer as a street rider. I'm glad I didnt come around that corner first. But I would of had to leave way before those guys to do that.
