So I guess I should share a story from today...
As we were starting out, the whole group of us passed by Mr. CHP writing a ticket to a motorcycle rider. We weren't screaming, but we might have been exceeding the limit
Anyway, he finished writing the ticket pretty quickly and was behind us. I think everyone pretty much prdicted this would happen, so we slowed down to avoid getting any souvenirs.
He proceeded to advance up the group, tailing each of us for a few seconds and finally passed Howard in the lead car and set up on the road ahead a ways, facing traffic, radar on. As we stopped at the view point, a motorcyclist coming from the other way informed us of the trap. We managed to slow down a couple guys before getting caught as they went by. The second group of riders seemed to think our "slow down" hand movement meant "rev it buddy!" so who knows what happened to them...
Sure enough as we passed the cop doing 25, he just had to sit there and watch.
Unfortunately, Slits wasn't there to entertain the local law enforcement. We did talk about him though, so the legend of Slits at WCC05 hasn't died.
Apaprently we have all learned from his misfortune..
