Default FTP

Out for an evening ride on the Roadking tonight enjoying the sights & smells. I roll up on a metric bike laying in the median strip, the rider is just getting up. His gloves are bloody and he's missing the first layer of skin on his back. His bike has a fur seat and stars painted all over it. His two buddies are telling him to hurry up and get on one of their bikes so they can leave before police arrive. He's complaining he don't want to leave the bike. I call the highway patrol & advise them that these guys are getting ready to leave. Dispatch advises they have a car enroute and asks me to try & hold them up.

I start giving her the lic Plate of one of the upright bikes when the rider sees me and bends the plate so I can't get it. I walk over, bend it back down and give the plate to dispatch. This **** ask's me " What the f... you doing man" My reply " I'm the P in FTP.

These are the same FTP jerks that vanadlized my truck and every other vehicle with a police emblem in a hotel parking lot last year. Maybe not the same guys but the same mentality... Sorry for the kid who lost some skin, he's lucky he ain't dead. The witnesses said all three of them passed their car doing high speed wheelies when this kid lost it. Got some of my justice tonight & it felt good...

I'm the P in FTP.
LOL

I was young once. But I don't remember being young and so stupid.

Sounds like you handled it perfectly. The pup is lucky he's alive. I just hope he realizes it someday.

Sounds like the infamous Star Boys, the rotten little assbags do high speed wheelies on the freeway and other little stunts. I'm glad they got what was coming to them.

You're the protocol in file transfer protocol? (sorry, bad computer geek joke)

Seriously, great job. Way to keep a cool head and make sure justice was served.

It's stupid to be an FTPer. They enforce the laws, not make them. So FTLM!!!
