Nick & I would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Mr. Boxford Police Officer.

That is all.

[Nix]

Oh snap! Details...details?? Some squidly behavior went awry and then you guys gave the officer sexual favors to keep your licenses?

[schleppy]

Yep, you can't just post that little tidbit. Story time!

Yes, Mr. Johnny Law let us go.... wouldn't have been a good way to start the season... sans bike

[SSearchVT]

Looks like it's the day... I got my 'Good Neighbor Sam Driving Award' on the way up to the slopes. Luckily it was given the local break and dropped to 50 in a 40...

Just goes to show ya, when a cop is going the opposite direction, has the radar set to "Instant On" & spots you while you're hanging off, rippin around a corner, it's best to just get to a safe spot, pull over, shut off the bike & wait for him to turn around & catch up. We were already stopped & taking our gear off by the time he pulled up behind us.

We could have EASILY been GONE if we punched it and I think he probably knew that & took it into consideration. He also knew we were locals as we saw him about a 1/2 hour before when we were pulling out of my driveway.

Nice guy, wasn't a dick at all. Shit, he coulda thrown the book at us & taken our bikes if he wanted to. We weren't goin all THAT fast, but we WERE in a 25mph zone.

What are you trying to say.....

You don't like the smell of sweat and leather???

[OreoGaborio]

Oh I do... but don't you generally you poop yourself in rage when you see the red group take the track?

[GixerJockey]

Oh I do... but don't you generally you poop yourself in rage when you see the red group take the track?

And come running across the garage to yell at people for things they didn't do?

[OreoGaborio]

OSNAP! Jane shoots first, ask questions later

[spicy]

make with the pics, man

it was nice riding with you -- though, i wish i could've spent a little more time behind the tuono for some grumbling italian v-twin excellence .

i managed a total of 80mi, though the last 30min or so started to get a little chilly.

can't wait until it warms up another 10*F...

[OreoGaborio]

werrrrd, nice to meet you too, bro

She sounds good for a stock exhaust, don't she? Then again, that "stock" exhaust isn't quite ALLLL stock & neither is yours is it?

Either way, nice to meet ya, good to have ya come along for the cruise.

A couple of years ago when I was still living in Ipswich, I was let go by a Boxford cop who could have really ruined my day if he chose to. I was accelerating hard out of a corner only to find the officer sitting on the side of the road looking right at me. I pulled over right away and the first thing out of his mouth was "I've seen some cool things in my life but I've never seen a motorcycle power wheelie out of a corner while still turning."

We ended up talking about bikes for a few minutes before he gave me a quick lecture and let me go. Needless to say I avoided the area for a few weeks.

I don't know how but I've been let go in West Newbury too.

[spicy]

haha, yeah, mine's been.... "modified"

just wish i could do something about the weight/looks. i'm gonna get a slip-on sooner or later -- i do like the way it sounds now, though, so it'll probably be the way it is for a while still... why fix it if it ain't broke, huh?

[OreoGaborio]

yeah, save yer bucks & I'll see you on the track

[OreoGaborio]

make with the pics, man

Rookies... So demanding .
