"Government makes shit up"...which is why i refuse to listen to NPR.
More importantly, How legit is it to ride a motorbike on public roads now? If i keep my panniers on, and look like i'm headed to the store, is that good? OTOH, I'm really afraid of being in an accident and being taken to a hospital, which is the last place I want to be right now. (God Bless the folks that work in them).
