After yesterdays ride I just couldn't resist posting this up in a thread all by its self. As you can see the cop got me confused with Andrew Stroud (yes i know it happens a lot to me but who can blame him), so he was obviously flattered that I would leg over his bike. I bet he's telling all his mates down the cop station about me right now. "Look Sargent you see that - It's Andrew Stroud on my bike he's such a cool guy and I think our bike squad could learn a thing or two from him".

Maybee thought --Ill give the kid a thrill--let him sit on a real bike

LOL, was that shot taken before or after they cuffed you Andrew?

AWESOME, did he let you shoot off a few rounds of his glock too?

Looks suspiciously photoshop. or did he specifically not not to sit right down on his seat?

Maybe I'm just too cynical, maybe not.

I laughed so hard, then wondered where he got the ladder to get on it.......

I tend to agree that you can never be too cynical. However in this case I can personally vouch for the authenticity of the photo. I was there. I witnessed it. So did several others. Allowing for the remote possibility of a mass hallucination, I think it's reasonably certain that the event actually happened. You need to have a little more faith...

**shandawg** · 14th June 2004, 20:08

Yep I'll vouch for him as well, although I did not witness it, I was the fool who binned it for the cop to be there in the first place

**RiderInBlack** · 14th June 2004, 20:23

Cool, ta for the pic. Just what I needed. I'm going to make my CBR1000 look more PC to realy fu*k up all my BEAR's mates the next time I see them on a Poker Run

Nice one Andrew, looks like you had the blue n reds going to.
Just don't get any change of profession ideas eh

**Kwaka-Kid** · 14th June 2004, 22:01

yeah andrew i remember those days, when it was fun to sit on a police bike and then even know which switch turns the lights on!!

but then i left primary school and went to intermediate.

I wouldnt sit on a bloody ST1100 if they paid me!
wait.. maybe if they did pay me like the cops etc and i got to go fast.
