In 1980, I just got my new ride put together for the Houston Dirt track nats. Had the bike out on the road in front of my house doing wheelies not wearing a helmet. Made 3 or four passes back and forth about 300 feet each way. Last pass down, I went to turn around and come back, as I did there was a cop right behind me. I looked right at him fliped the bike back and nailed the throttle, Layed down on the tank and ran the bike up through the gears, got up around 95mph and the bike went into a crazy speed wobble, so I backed off and slowed it down and it came out of the wobble,then I looked back to see where the cop was and the son of bitch was about 2 feet from my rear tire! Scared the shit outa me, so I turned back and ran the bike back up through the gears, this time though the bike was solid. So I raced down about 3/4s of a mile to a vee section wear you could take a hard left and it would take you onto another road heading the other direction. So I hit the binders hard and made the left on to the other road going the other direction. Then I looked back again to see where the cop was , as I did I saw sparky spin off the road and hit a telephone pole! I raced down the road about a mile and hit this trail to the power lines, the power lines had another trail that went to the back of the development that I lived in, so I hit that trail and road right back into the garage shut the door and went into the house.

Not really a badboy story but a good one none the less. I have a small practice track that is nestled right in the middle of a bunch of cranberry bogs behind my moms house. When I was about 16 years old I was in the middle of doing a moto when a cop car came flying in from out of nowhere. Like I said before I was"mid moto" when it happened so naturally I finished my moto before casually riding up to the officer(who was now out of his car). I shut my bike off and took off my helmet, to my surprise the cop was shocked that not only did I not run from him I finished riding my moto and then came to talk with him. Anyway he was nice enough to let me stay out there and ride with no trouble, he mentioned he was impressed that a kid my age would be smart enough to wear ALL the proper gear while riding, im not sure if that was a compliment but i was happy to keep riding none the less. He even came out onto the top of a jump to get a better look at me hitting it. He just about had a heart attack when I busted out a huge "nothing" over it I felt like mike metzger for about 5 seconds.
