On the Sunday Sport Rider ride we were coming back on the freeway and we were all popping wheelies as usual. And all of sudden I notice a cop coming up quickly from behind us. I thought he was going to exit but instead he goes around the car in the right lane using the exit ramp to get around him(I thought that was pretty dangerous of mr policeman) Then he turned on his lights and takes off after our leader and the leader took off so fast when he saw the cop that I didn't even see him.
So now all 20 of us take off after the cop. I mean we were doing 120 to 130 plus weaving through traffic high speed turns and just out and out hauling butt chasing after the cop. I mean you talk about a good blocker what beats a cop with its lights on. IT was fun.
Plus the really good news. I learned how to do standing wheelies now on rear pegs(well in the parking lot) I praticed and praticed and praticed. It is such a rush. I mean it feels so much different than sit downs. I got so tired that it felt like I was a treadmill for 30 minutes. I think it is combination of pulling the bike up, riding the wheelie and the drop of the front wheel. I was sweating and everything I guess your adrenaline is pumping too thinking that if I twist the throttle just a little too much I am either going to die or be in alot of pain. But man it is such a RUSH.
I think it is going to be beneficial to learn these because I can see over the faring(sp) which is hard to do during high sitdown wheelies(I have look around the side) I haven't tried them(stand up ones, I do sitdowns all the time) on the freeway yet because I am still not that comfortable to try 80 and 90 mphs ones yet due to me eating it and some truck driver running me over but give me a week or so I will be riding those things all over the freeway. I think I am going to burn up my motor eventually but heck its fun.
