Hi Lisa,

REAL BIG ice storm here on Thursday night thru Friday.

1/2of New Hampshire Vermont and my area of NY had 1 ½ inches of ice causing massive power outages. We just got ours back but they say it will take up to a week for the rest of the area to get power back. Massive tree damage! Luckily you guys got out when you did.

The BIG biker news is that NYC mayor BloomDick is trying to really stick it to biker, big time.

Seems both he and his asswipe city councilman Peter Valone want to pass a law, and it looks like it’s going thru, that will require ALL motorcycles in NYC to go thru an EPA inspection to prove that their exhaust systems comply with the noise ordenence, NO LOUD PIPES. They will require ALL motorcycles to sport an EPA sticker on bikes. No sticker, they will issue a $1,000 fine for the first offence and a $2,500 fine and immediate confiscation of your bike on the spot. They don’t even have to hear your bike running!!!!

OK, so anyone living outside the city will “presumably” be exempt from having to have the NYC sticker, but that leaves the question of a rider living and having his or her bike registered outside the city, coming out of an event and finding their bike towed away??? What a load of crap!!

Heres a link to the newspaper article about it.

Trying to spread the word
