One great idea a day is enough...please don't get me thinking in that direction...watching some self-righteous full-lane blocking no road tax paying greenie weenies on youtube is all I need to get to asking for forgiveness already...
I'll wind up quoting 'The Cable Guy' until my concience clears up...
I am going to take exception with the no road tax greenie ****** statement. I do see the humor in it all, even though a friend of mine was killed on her bike last year by a "B" on her cell phone. Open, straight section of 4 lane road.
I ride my bike on the road some. I also pay registration and personal property tax on 7 vehicles, of which I can only drive 1 at a time. 2 of them are diesels, 2 are motorcycles. The other 3 have a combined total of 22 cylinders. So probably pay 2-3 times the road tax your average driver does. If I want to ride my bike on it, I for sure will. I have recently decided I need to carry when riding because too much aggression is thrown at people on bikes. Ain't nobody got time for that.
I won't deny there are some self righteous ones but the same can be said of people in cars and trucks as well. Usually lagging along in the left lane forever (Blue Subarus) because whatever speed they're going is good enough for everyone.
And no I'm not ranting. Just raising awareness. Seen too many people die for this, literally no good reason at all.
