Re: [Vista Cruiser] 10 worst / speeding

We used to run our snow mobiles up and down the TransCanada and taunt the RCMP into chasing us.

Fun times.

Hi All,
I need to jump in here and confess that back in my younger wilder days I found a great way to avoid speeding tickets. When I was riding my motorcycle ( ether a XS 11 special Yamaha or A R100ST BMW ) I would look for a Big Black Mercedes Benz and follow it. The MBz were almost always driving 15-20 mph over the posted limit. The interesting thing was that out of nowhere they would slow down to the posted limit and sure 'enough a CHP unit was near by. I experienced this several times. The best was a run from Laguna-Seca raceway to Santa Barbara in just two hours. Had to be back for a friends wedding.

In all fairness it wouldn't be much of a chase unless the RCMP's horse was fast! Eh?Patrick ... From: oovah <oovah@...> Subject: Re: [Vista Cruiser] 10...

Moving fast is the only way the horses don't freeze to death. Sadly, at the time that we were doing this the RC's were running '73 Dodge Polara's. They...

Patrick: I know you're kidding, but the "oatsmobiles" are only for ceremony now, as are the red uniforms. Here's some serious pictures of the RCMP in both...
