I would have to say my worst run in with a cop was when i had just turned 17 and bought my first bike. It was a beautiful 02 R1 that the previous owner had dropped an insane amout of money into scared himself then sold it to an idiot 17 year old that really didnt need a fast bike to begin with. Well I skipped out of school early friday and decided to go ride. Well to say i was speeding would be the understatement of the century i was dragging knee in every turn and hitting triples on every straight. Well coming down a curvy little back road 10 mins from my house i fly by a county cop. Well in the great thinking every 17 year old has i said shit he cant catch me and grabbed a hand full of throttle. Ducking through neighborhoods and every back road i know to lose him I shoot for the house, When i pull up to my horror there is a county cop sitting in front of my house. Turns out my dad was friends with him and had showed him my blacked out R1 and my black helmet with the red mohawk. Unfortunately the cop decided to let my dad handle my punishment I am pretty sure i would have preferred to go to jail that day. But I can tell you if you are desperate for a bike and you are good with a shovel i can show you where my dad buried it in the back yard with the back hoe he made me stand and watch.
