While coasting down this hill a bit today, I came across my first speed trap. The officer was standing next to her car with the radar gun pointed at oncoming traffic (me). She clocked me at 11mph (I just got over the top of the hill) (I think the speed limit is 35-40)
Never have I felt so comfortable about encountering a speed trap.
Wimp ...

I want a speeding ticket while on my bicycle.
