The guys in NY play differently. They used the police and other vehicles, like a video game, in their LSR efforts.

Maybe he had too many 30 oz Slurpies.

I think he had three 5hour energy drinks in about one hour...or he's a dumd a$$ like the morons around here in my neck of the woods

I don't think it counts unless he goes 193mph northbound as well.

The world needs organ donors.  Luckily, they don't reuse the brain.

Don't know about everybody elses local Bike guys, but around here they seem to totally ignore the cops, especially if in packs. And, the cops can't seem to do much about them. I live off the Taconic Parkway here in Westchester, well south of that Albany area of I-87, and I hear these guys fly by at all hours of the day and night. Seriously, why buy a bike capable of these speeds if not to trash speed laws ?
I got some trooper pals up that way, mebbe we can set up an impound next to the Albany courthouse, get DW to charge for official LSR records certificates, Apres summons, your conviction is your time slip ? Even with 14 tickets probably still cheaper than a weeks rooms in Bendover.

I don't do bikes but, in this case I can certaintly reject these idiots.

Darn! With a "New York Mile" title and concerning motorcycles, I was hoping this thread would be about the flat-track events that I loved watching at the Syracuse fairgrounds!

Sorry about that! Miss Ascot here on the left coast! Flat track is alive and well in Europe. I was in Rzeszow, Poland a couple of weels ago. There is a very active stadium there that I was hoping to see some racing over the weekend. Unfortunately the team was competing at another stadium and even more unfortunately a team member, I believe he was a Britt, was fataly injured when he hit the wall after a collision. There was a nice memorial to him at the stadium. The racing is covered regularly on European Sports Network which is available in the many Pubs
