    LMAO.. YESSSSS a radar detector would have helped you!!!! The other two detectors in the group went off well before we approached the LEO's

    And riding highway 7 isn't as much fun as it was before the floods

    I was wondering how the influx of people affected traffic there.

My first ride of the season and some CSP decided to lie about my speed saying I was doing 88 in a 35 at hwy 7 which was absolute bullshit given I was sweeping and riding slow all ride, I was doing no more than 60 through that turn. Got court on the 6th so we'll see how that goes cause it's in Boulder county, have heard they got no liniency for motorcyclists but yet I've never seen those fuckers on bicycles get in trouble for taking the whole road and hauling ass coming down the canyons.
    I was 24 over.... but I crossed the double yellow "3 times" (It was once, but I passed 3 cars) to SAFELY go around 2 vehicles that were unloading passengers (and one that was halfway in the road). The cop was sitting in someones driveway up a hill behind a blind corner and claimed to have seen the whole thing and said that I should've stopped for the cars to unload rather than go around them.

    For the record, I don't ride fast on the streets. I do enjoy a spirited pace in the canyons, but i'm constantly scanning for cops. I just got tagged at the exact wrong moment as I was passing cars in a straight-away (that were pulled over)... and I had been stuck behind that group for 4-5 miles.
