By the way, if you think these lefty-liberal scare scenarios, including this pending legislation don't affect you because you live elsewhere, guess again.

If this passes, word will get around.. get around to other "annoyed citizens", politians, and every little town that you like to ride through from coast to coast.

Once a precedence is set, you better bet that cute town you and your riding buddies like to stop at for lunch on Sundays will consider passing similar laws.

If the noisiest, loudest, rudest city in the country can try to do something like this, those sleepy little towns that are annoyed by bikers are just chomping at the bit to see this passed.

We have some big problems coming in this country. Very big.





It is. It's insane.

Something to understand though... and I keep hearing it alot in this thread, and others. Some of us actually live and work here.

It's not like we're a group of weekend riders deciding to "go for a pleasure ride into the big New York City".

Many of the guys I know who live here, and are part of this cityscape, don't even own a car.

We ride motorcycles, well, because we're bikers. We ride by 'default'. Whether it's going to the store, going to work, picking up the girlfriend from work, visiting mom, meeting the bros, whatever. We live here, and we ride. It's not a "destination" that we chose to visit. And it's seldom a "pleasure" ride.

It's as natural for some of us to swing our leg over the bike in the morning, as it is for the yuppie in his BMW to double park outside of Starbucks.

In fact, many of us got into bikes originally to get through the traffic easier.

This is my home, this is where I HAVE to ride.





You got that right. My biggest problem is finding myself a political "minority" in NY. The leftys have no idea what kind of damage they're doing, or enabling.

And the sneakiest ones get elected to office. Bloomberg originally ran on the republican ticket, whom I myself voted for. Wow.. what a mistake that was.

Can you imagine what's going to happen next???? With an incoming Obama, and a majority Democrat congress, and the entire northeast states governed by Dems, well guess what. People called for "change"???? Well... it's coming. It's really coming.
