Mcn Asks: Do You Break The Speed Limit?

[gra53]

Hmmmm......now who was it here that said riding with him is a "3 point ride".

About a year ago the city I work in (Grand Rapids Michigan) raised the speed limits on a lot of their roads. It seems their traffic studies found most people were exceeding the old limits anyway. The highway is now 70 mph all the way through town. Running in traffic at that speed makes you FEEL like your getting away with something ! If a bunch of us hadn't been speeders we wouldn't have got the higher limits. I say speed all you can

My bike is limited to a maximum speed of 300, and I have never exceeded the speed limit placed on it.

Let's face the facts - it's hard for a ROCKET not to break the Sound Barrier - that's why they're called ROCKETS.

Anyway, how can you overtake a driver, who is just travelling under the Speed Limit, without breaking the law - nice if it can be done safely!!
