I had a scary experience about a month ago. I was going home on
Sunday, on I95. Not too fast, about 90-95mph. There was light
traffic, most people were going pretty fast, so I didn't have to
change lanes to much. So, I pass this Kawasaki sports bike, no
harm intended... About 3 minutes later the bike SCREAMS past me,
going REALLY FAST, at least 140. The guy was changing lanes
every 30 meters, to avoid slower moving traffic. He was standing
on his hips every time he made a pass, to shift center of gravity
of his bike. Man, that was scary to look at.
