During breakfast with two buddies this am, our conversation turned to Wi. laws on motored bicycles. We were overheard by a man at another table who challenged what I was saying. Luckily I had my laptop along with lots of info on it, including exact copies of the state statutes. I also had the gear ratio calculator on there so we showed him that even in the highest gear on my bike, I was still under 30 mph. He said that I'd still get a ticket because I had gears, and over 50cc engine. I pointed out that the top limit by statute is 130cc, and there is not a word in there about gears or automatic trannies unless its a type 1 motorcycle..a completely different animal. Other people got into the discussion about then and it became a very lively breakfast. He left in an angry manner but at least he's a bit better educated now. Other's in the restaruant were very interested and impressed that I had all the pertinent information with me. That was accidental, I had the laptop along to share some other stuff with my buddies. Best breakfast I had all week!
I'm going to print all that stuff out to carry with me on my bike when I get to ride again. A foot of snow and 30mph winds today, won't be riding for sure.
