    Re: Watching for the police.

    I just saw a Littleton Motor chasing down someone on southbound Santa Fe this afternoon. He looked like he was having a hoot rolling on the throttle on that BMW.

    Re: Watching for the police.

    At the Colorado Mills Mall, they had all the marked and semi-marked police vehicles from the lakewood dept. They had a couple of bikes too. I had never seen a biker cop till I moved up here. Looks like thier riding Honda St1300's and Some beamer. I don't remeber what it was. I was too busy trying to remember top speeds and quatermile times to see if an escape was possible. Oh well I just need to find a really good radar detector to mount to my bike. Or possibly a helmet mounted police scanner.

    Re: Watching for the police.

    Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. A normal speeder will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop heart. Make the bastard chase you. He will follow. But he won't know what to make of your blinker signal that says you are about to turn right. This is to let him know you're pulling off for a proper place to talk. It will take him a moment to realize that he's about to make a 180 degree turn at speed, but you will be ready for it. Brace for the g's, and fast heel-toe work.

    We had two bags of grass...pellets of mescaline...
    five sheets of high-powered blotter acid...
    a salt shaker half-full of cocaine...
    a whole galaxy of multicolored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers.
    Also a quart of tequila,a quart of rum, a case of beer...
    a pint of raw ether...two dozen amyls.

    Not that we needed all that for the trip...
    but once you get locked into a serious drug collection...
    the tendency is to push itas far as you can.

    Lakewood rides BMW R1100Ses.... certainly an improvement over the Harleys they had before. They also had a seized ZX11 at one point, but it was strictly for publicity and public appearances, never actually put into service.

    I suppose it wouldn't be too bad being stopped by this Littleton Motor Officer...for a "warning".

    She reminds me of a classmate of mine in high school that went on to become the CSP's first female motor officer. Except she looks to be about 15 years too young for that.

    Re: Watching for the police.

    Best part: seconds after I snapped this shot she cut in front of me and started to pull over to the side of the road near S/B Sante Fe and south end of the Light Rail. As she pulled to my right I opened my passenger-side window and hollered out to her, "Hey, skews me. Can I pull over and chat with you for a minute!?!" A look of utter surprise came over her and then she said (with a bit of suspicion), "Sure, drive around the corner and I'll meet you after I check on this accident.

    Well, she did. Walked right up to me with her helmet in one hand and her right hand on her weapon (I guess I look like trouble, ha). We ended up having a nice conversation about women in motorcycling. It was/is my hope that she and other motor officers will participate in several activities within the motorcycling street and racing community--more specifically we'll pass on Jeff's information so they can have a private chat with him, LOL.

    And with all due respect, she was 3x as hot with the helmet off. Nuff said.

    My contact took place last summer. I have her business card, but it is buried somewhere in my office. If I come across it I will try to remember to reply to your question. If you do know her, perhaps you, too, can also work towards getting her involved in some "positive press" for motorcycling.

    Thanks.

    If its the same women that I know I will ask her. We haven't been in touch in while but we grew up together we were like peas in a pod.

    I'm sure she would love to help out with some good PR for the motorcycle community.
