Motorcycles Are Banned From The Pyrenees National Park

As usual, the few fuck it up for the many.
Loud bikes save lives, excessively loud bikes piss people off and activate the fun police.

Noise police are on the rise in the IOM. A revised lower limit for exhaust pipes (cars & bikes) is planned. Fortunately, still no plans to change the unrestricted exhaust for Classic race machines.

Was bound to happen. When a group 20 H-D riders totter past on a sunny Sunday morning, I want to ban motorcycles too.

(And why do H-D riders always ride in packs? Mystifies me ...)

Yep, a funny bunch, declaring...
• I'm a rebel.
• I'm an individual.
• I don't respect the rules.
• Be yourself.
• Live free.
• Fuck the man.
• Live under the radar.

Then...
• Wearing a commonised uniform (plus or minus a few tassels).
• Riding the same bike (plus or minus a few tassels).
• Going to the same places.
• Taking a 'look at me' stance in everything they do.
• Trying to look like Hells Angels.
• Growing the same beard.

Ah well. Fashions always did appeal to the weak-of-mind I suppose.

I was out on my RGS one day and stopped for a comfort break at a country tavern. They were advertising a Poker Run in the near future and I got to talking with the bartender about it. It seems that the various stops to pick up cards are no more than 20 miles apart since it is too much to ask the Harley crowd to ride much more than 100mi per Sunday. They also planned the route so that the first few stops were on curvy roads, but the last were all on straight highways since the hardcore heros tended to get a little wobbly towards the end of the day!

A lot of people advocating freedom tend to like uniforms and leaders.

I’m glad I have done the Pyrenees a few times, the pic is 1995 on a disused logging track near the Col du Richmond . Sadly exploring the avalanche roads on my bike with a tent,out of date map,and a tank bag full of cheese a salami may be a thing of the past . How could you possibly not like the noise of Guzz?
Big round of applause goes to the KTM riding pseudo enduro tosser’s that have bought this on.
