On my way to work this morning, I took the boring, straight highway route. About three cars behind me there was a Gold Wing with it's freaking high beams on, tail gating a car.
When we reached a stop light, I was the first vehicle at the light and the Gold Wing whipped into the right lane behind the truck beside me. I wasn't out to race or anything.. and took off when the light turned green as normal... coasting along waiting for the next light to change as well. When it changed, the Gold Wing whipped out from behind the truck and was charging hard... I saw the front end lifting in my mirror..
Well.. I'm on a Rocket already rolling at 30 or so MPH. What am I to do? I opened her up full throttle, rear tire spinning a bit and I was out of there. Watching the Gold Wing in my mirror.. charging hard enough I could tell when he was shifting by the front end lifting, but I just kept pulling away until we caught up with traffic. Then he catches up and pulls up beside me.. Apparently making sure I saw "Police" on his bike.. I just shrugged my shoulders and rode on in to work..
Was pretty cool watching him wring out that Gold Wing (pretty fast in their own right) out trying to keep up..
