Sorry to hear this. We can do an unofficial bike night next week to make up for the one you are unfortunately missing.

Doesn't cost you any money to go except for the gas to get there :)

Apparently you can't go between cars the officer says. Be a little late :)

On my way to downtown Fort Worth to pick up my brother, I was sitting in the left lane of I35W southbound. We were at the stop part of the stop and go traffic (go 10mph then halt to 0 mph). In the right lane, directly next to me is a Fort worth cop and in front of the cop is a long bed tractor trailer with an empty flat bed. I see this sport bike riding slowly down the right shoulder, right passed the cop. The cop turns her lights on and pulls off onto the right shoulder and follows the bike. My lane moves a little bit...just enough for me to see a black glove on the ground by the rear tire (on the right side), black slacks tucked poorly into black boots, and what looks like a black dainese leather jacket. My lane moves just a little more but now I am directly next to that damn semi truck and me being a short shit can't see much on the right side of the truck. Luckily, the bed of the truck (the frame) had circular holes in it so I could a little more as I slowly inched forward. Just as I move forward, I look through one of those holes and see the guy after he takes his helmet off and he surprisingly looks like OUR MILES! At this point, traffic is moving a little faster so I can't really gawk and see, plus the truck is still next to me. I call Jim and ask if miles is there yet because I thought he was pulled over but I couldn't tell for 100% but I was 95% positive it was him (I didn't even see the bike...I just knew it was a sport bike). Jim said he wasn't there yet but would let me know if it was him. Miles has all the luck...females coppers pulling him over because he looks good. She wanted a piece of that (because 10 mph is not fast enough to get pulled over). Good job, sir, good job!! I think it's funny I actually saw you slowing go by, saw the cop pull in behind you, and watched her approach and you turn around off the bike. LOL!!

I've been pulled over countless time in the bike and truck. I've lost count about how many times I haven't gotten a ticket. I think that makes 6 to the 1 time I haven't gotten one on the bike only.

Every single time I've been pulled over they had a reason to. Every single time I'm respectful and try and make sure they feel safe. Laying keys on the ground, keeping hands where they can see them, kickstand down and pull over ASAP. Then it's yes and no sir ma'am. I don't lie or talk too much, just be honest.

Both ladies were extremely nice.

Funny thing was I told her I did it because the bike was really hot and so was i(the truth). When they we to their car to run my license I was about to pull my jacket off. I stopped and let it king of hang slightly off my shoulders because I didn't want them to see the Fwmr logo lol

Admit, that's a runway model move you lay on the lady cops to get them distracted. Did you look longingly into the distance also? :SideSplittingLaughter:

As a matter of fact I did, but the real reason is I couldn't look all those people I had just passed in the eye :)
