A number of states already have posted speed limits that are quite shocking to our 15-minute-city-dwelling betters (e.g. 75 and 80 on most Texas interstates), and more red states will raises theirs in response to this diktat. So our brilliant federal planners are soon going to have to go back to imposing national speed limits.

My bike has a rated top speed of 200km/h out of the factory. My comfort zone maxes out at 150km.h indicated (~135km/h actual) where it was Sunday, on a clear summer day, less than a couple of hours north of Toronto. The road is posted at 120km/h. It doesn’t take much simple arithmetic to figure out that most American Interstates I’m the slowest thing on the freeway. I “Get Away With It”) by obeying the one universal law that most drivers obey outside populations: Drive in the driving lane and only pass in the passing lane.

In Military and Motorcycle dialects of the King’s English:

Lead, Follow, or Get out of the Way!!!!!!
