Park police disturbs me

[Skierchickie]

Did I miss something? I've seen lots of references here to the bikers having been pulled over more than once for the same thing, but I haven't been able to find what that is, other than pure conjecture. Lots of assumption that it was for speeding and riding too many abreast. Which has grown, multiplied, become fact somehow (and, it sounds like, grown from 2 to MANY pullings-over). Now it sounds like one of the pullings-over was more of an almost-running-over of a cop/pedestrian, and maybe the other one didn't actually happen??. That is a very bad thing, and should not be tolerated, but I think it shows that maybe, just maybe this thread has taken on a life of its own. I'm glad the OP was able to come back, and it seems like more facts are actually known, and maybe things are settling down. I just hate to see so much anger building over something not many people knew the facts about. I've been noticing anger building in other seemingly-innocent threads lately, too, and I'm finding it kind of off-putting. Probably the only reason I'm mentioning it here.

My 2 cents. Please don't beat me.

Exactly! This thread has taken on more than a life of it's own which was not my intent. I could comment on the officers statement, but that would cause the thread to grow and grow and... you get the picture. If nothing else, it's given me an idea to pursue with the park. If it comes to fruition I'll let you guys know. By the way, there is a good chance I won't be able to check on messages for a few days. So, don't take it as an indicator of "hiding out" , it's called working, training, baby sitting and just life!

I hope everyone has a wonderful day and weekend with some great days for riding in fantastic weather. Stay safe and I truly appreciate the input of everyone.
