I have even had the Cops flash their headlights at me....



Shortly followed by the roof lights, and a wagging finger

Yes.  I even gave an oncoming ute a "thumbs up" when I got a flash from it.  Five minutes later I was being handed a piece of yellow paper by its country cop driver with some BS about 18 kays over the limit or somesuch.  Felt very hard done by, having seconds before driven conscientiously through a long deserted main street at 50 kph.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
