I'm now dumber for having read this.

But...to get an accurate answer you will have to tell us which side of the bike you are on.

Well relative to the sun, anytime you sit on your bike with the engine off you are doing approximately 63,000 miles an hour.

The real question is - If a '48 Shovel is traveling at the speed of light in space and the headlight is turned on...does the light shine out and forward or not?
