Bearly Flying, I followed that story on the net. +1 on way to go bikers. That was a very good way of demonstrating how ridicules their ruling was.

 
By any chance was that for Tool on August 6 in Fresno?
Correct. :punk: Haven't seen 'em in almost 8 years. Eve never has. You goin'? They also added a Sept 5th show in Bakersfield.
My sons and I listen to Tool all the time around the house, but only my oldest son and his girlfriend are going to the concert. I helped him do the Ticketmaster web site dance once the tickets went on sale.

 
How about someone parking their bike in your parking spot next to your bike. Would you be pissed?
I don't have a problem with multiple bikes sharing a parking space, as long as they don't crowd your bike.

Several years ago in Edmonton, the City got on a rampage about more than one bike to a parking space (cutting into their parking meter revenue). A favourite biker spot on White Ave, all the Bikers took one space each all the way up and down the street, thereby using up all the parking in the area. Boy were the Cagers and Business Owners ever pissed. Didn't take the City very long to back down on multiple bike parking.
That is excellent news! Seems like a year or so ago, a couple posters were at coastal resort towns and got hammered the same way. Pretty hefty fines, too. I think I'd argue that I was there first and don't know who the other bike owner is, so give them the ticket, not me. But I sure like the idea of the mass rally blocking ALL the spots. Good on them! I think the coastal towns were trying to get rid of those noisemaker bikes, though. Not sure of the bureaucratic motivation, but only makes sense.

 
Remember the video "Mother's Day Photograph" that was running a few weeks ago... the "defiant" brother had a Tool shirt on at the beginning.... heh... that was a funny video...

Oh and Bagger, another point of etiquette... If riding in a group, after making a turn, if someone in front or behind you forgets to turn off their turn signal, stick your arm out and open/close the fingers of your hand to let them know...

FJRottie I concur with you.

And some of those jokers have no riding etiquitte at all, they think they own the road.

All cool with their legs spread out and almost sleeping on their damned rolling recliners.

Sorry folks, I got behind about three of these yesterday coming home after a good long ride through some rain and was ready to get my *** home to a real recliner in the living room.

They had the road blocked for about 5 miles with fairly moderate traffic that made passing dangerous.

And that's why any chance I get I will smoke there ***'s.Would that be cosidered good rider etiquitte?

Then I guess I have good eddyket.....I smoked a group of 15-20 Hardley's on route 57 yesterday after miles of rolling blockage in 97 degree heat......they finally pulled to the side at a passing lane. Took the last one at over a 110. And I waved nicely as I went by the last one.
