On my way to work this morning at 0430.. and I always cross this one bridge that has a great sound wall the echos the exhaust so nice, so I open her up to 80+ and sure as hell, there is a bike cop, just hanging out taging me.. Before he even flips his lights on, I automatically pull over and await his arrival. He pulls in behind me walks up see;s the fact that im in uniform .. looks me in the eye and says " Love the sound of muscle, keep her under 60 SGT" and walks off ! I was ready to face my actions with a ticket but hell if I get a freepass.. THANK YOU ! ..

Just thought I would rant a little.. it was nice !

Nice! You were pretty lucky though. Was it CHP? A friend of mine is one and said every time they pull someone over they are writing a ticket.

I was escorted home by an MP while I was just walking on base. At least that's what I was told--I can't remember it.

It was during WWII, when my father was in the Army. Seems I slipped out of the house when mom wasn't looking and headed out to buy meat. The MP thought that someone 2 or 3 years old shouldn't be walking around by himself, so he returned me to mommy. I THINK she was glad to get me back.

I've broken the speed limit on certain roads inside the base while jogging.
