I was visiting Minnesota last week where the locals mentioned that they had caught a motorcycle rider who had been doing 160 mph regularly and out running the rural police. I guess they got a helicopter and some roadblocks to stop him. He was a nutter who had the motorcycle manufacturer testify at his trial, thinking they would say the cycle couldn't go that fast! That Didn't Happen... Regards, Bob S.
