152 MPH in a 70 zone? CRAZY!

I’ve had many, many people tell me just how dangerous motorcycle riding is…as if I didn’t already know. One of the big keys to staying safe out there on the road is to obey the traffic laws. You know…those pesky rules that all motorists have to follow, like:

-          Don’t run red lights

-          Come to a complete stop at stop signs

-          Don’t go over the speed limit

It was reported today on MCN today by Steve Farrell that there was a Motorcyclist caught speeding at 152 mph!! Stephen Tull was on a 70mph road in Binsted, Sussex when he was busted for going 152mph. That definitely sounds like a rush and a half, but I’d hate to think what would have happened if he had lost control of that bike!
