Default Got a ticket...

Well I got my first ever ticket on the bike Thursday. I was behind 3 cages just cruising along (not paying attention to speed) and I got sniped out of the group for 53 in a 35. Can't complain much though. I was speeding, and it is the first time I have ever been pulled over on the bike. Remember that "big brother" is watching us on the streets everyone.

That was not speeding, that was following the flow of traffic and staying alive.

unless youre driving alone and its on a radar gun's history, always challenge... worst case cenario, you end up with the same thing/fine as the first place. it con only get better when you challenge

I agree with drag and the rest of y'all, but it is not such a big deal to me. I have never had a ticket on the bike, and none on my license at all since I turned 18, so it won't affect my insurance. It is BS when they just pick you out of the group, but I have had the better end of that deal many times before. You gotta pay to play...
