-white county hosts the biggest drunkfest in the state every october, and it draws lots of cruiser traffic. beer+bikes=deaths... as shown in their statistics (but blame it on the sportbikes anyway)
-there are a few locals that are known to dump diesel fuel and gravel all over blind corners to deter motorcycles, i'd like to see how many accidents are caused by this alone.
-they complain of noise, it's funny they don't mention the harleys with open pipes up there that make just as much if not more noise than most sportbikes.
it's been discussed to death on all of the local bike forums. yes there are laws being broken, and wrecks happening; but it's nothing like what they are making it out to be.
