  1. You're looking at it wrong. Those aren't skid marks from the rear tires, those are powerslide marks. They're so experienced they drift their cruisers through the turns because a sportbike would be too easy -- Pssh, I've never seen you powerslide your CBR "Mr. Experience" *sniff* Your post reeks of jealousy for the cruiser contingents.
  2. The bagel would lose. Trust me on this one.
  3. But where does the line get drawn at what's a "necessity"? You don't wanna fund failing institutions - then you have to regulate them so they don't get too big or greedy to fail and disrupt the entire economy You don't wanna give away money to losers - then we should just close down all the prisons and let all those "losers" take care of themselves. You don't want bigger government - then we need to become responsible and self-policing instead of regulating. Good luck with that, capitalism doesn't really lend itself to responsibility and ethics. Not saying it can't be done, but it appears to be a rarity.
  4. And the truth shall set you free. Quoted for the record.
  5. I feel bad now. I'm sorry Todd -- we're all just goofin' on you man. Don't take it to heart.
  6. Do scooters count in these statistics? There's been a rash of guys/gals on scooters that have shed their mortal coils.
  7. I think we're getting under his thin skin.
  8. But who'll fight the War on Terror? The Michigan Militia?
  9. Another guy from the Ludwig von Mises Institute. I already called out the author of the past articles you posted: http://www.ohio-riders.com/showpost.php?p=528330&postcount=4 What makes this article any different? What gives this Lew Rockwell guy any credibility? Tax cuts for everyone...really? That's the solution, that's so simple, wonder why no one EVER thought of that...
  10. I like the fact that Zach is inviting more chicks to the site.
  11. It's amazing the things you learn and have to research to fight a speeding ticket. I still lost.
  12. I don't know the Michigan code, but ORC 4511.42: @ 75mph you're traveling 110 fps@ 45 mph you're traveling 66fps How long does it take to make a left turn? 2-3 seconds? So, the bike would've traveled 200ft @ the speed limit or 330ft @ 75mph (approximately 1 football field)... over the ENTIRE execution of the turn ...meaning the driver had barely began executing the turn if the cyclist hit the front of the vehicle. So, the guy turned left in front of the bike with less than 200ft between them.Math doesn't lie. The only argument (beyond the fact the guy wasn't even supposed to be on the road to begin with) is if the motorcycle being < 200ft away constitutes "an immediate hazard" -- which is apparently what the courts would have to decide (if it was in Ohio). Not to judge, but methinks it'll be hard getting blood outta that turnip.
  13. Hey! Welcome back sunshine! Where's your attention-whore thread?
  14. Maybe TD and Todd#43 are the same person? One left, one came back to 'reinvent' themselves?
  15. C'mon Sam, get with it. Everything you need to know is on these forums: www.boatownersarebetterthanyou.com
  16. You were givin' love... TOUGH love. Maybe you'll make her and her ego-strokers stronger people?
  17. I'll agree. It has become much easier to give negative feedback versus just thinking it in my head. But, if people are going to post such stuff in a public setting, then they get public feedback, good, bad, and everything in between. The net isn't here to stroke your ego and blow sunshine up your butt. If you can't accept that, then don't post or participate to begin with. I don't see anything wrong with your particular feedback if that was the truth.
  18. I didn't watch it (I don't think I will), but I looked up reaction videos and I get the gist of it. My g/f took the challenge and only made it through half the video... and that coming from the girl who wasn't phased by 2girls1cup.
  19. Jury explains why they found drunken driver with suspended license not guilty in fatal crash http://www.mlive.com/news/grand-rapids/index.ssf/2010/07/jury_explains_why_they_found_d.html Summary: Guy with trace THC (weed) levels, plus BAC of 0.09, plus suspended license found not guilty of killing motorcyclist by turning in front of him because motorcyclist "caused his own demise" by speeding. And, discuss.
  20. You're how old, kid? I'm an old man compared to you and I (along with about 5 other guys I've seen do it) put 500+ miles on our bikes most times we go out -- multiple rides per season. You need your ticket punched for the failboat.
  21. I thought you had a thesis to do...
