After finishing a good amount of vent, electrical, and drywall work on the boys bathroom I went for a 150 mile ride to a state park I’d never been to. On the way home, PA Trooper pulled me over. I feared I was about to get my first “performance award” on a bike.
Trooper: I pulled you over because you failed to come to a complete stop at that stop sign.
Me: Oh, I though I had, but if you say I didn’t, I didn’t.
Trooper: You didn’t. Any firearms on you.
Me: Yes sir
Trooper: Don’t need to see it. Just tell me where it is.
Me: cross-draw, right hip, 2 o’clock.
Trooper: Just don’t reach for it and I’m good.
Me: Wouldn’t think of it.
After what seemed like 10 minutes in his SUV(but was probably less than 1), comes back and hands me my paperwork. Gives me a written warning. Said that a failure to stop would be an over $300 fine, 3 points and reportable to insurance co. Told him I appreciated the warning very much. He said he rides too, yadayada. Gave me a Big break. Never even asked to see my Concealed Carry Permit.
Anyway. Here a pic of the bathroom and two of bridges: the first was the sketchiest bridge I’ve ever ridden across, the second isn’t quite ready to ride across yet.
