Yeah, everyone should decide what is safest for them regardless of stupid
rules, be they driving laws or FARs. To really increase safety on your
bike while on the "10" I'd pack a loaded 12-gauge on your rice rocket,
just like they do here in NH. Live free or die!

Shirley, you jest!!!

I guess you didn't see a recent post by me that stated I have a
Harley. I've been riding for 18 years, before it became fashionable
to own a Harley.

A weapon also is not needed. Since I adopted my current driving style
I've not had any problems in years. This is part of my 'rule bending'.
I don't allow myself to be near other cars if at all possible, or if
I must, I take control of the interaction so as to reduce to a minimum
the possibility of any negative side effects of said interaction.

But this is getting too OT for this group. My only reason for mentioning
it all was as an analogy in support an argument.
