Hey Alan,
It sounds like a good effort by your local Law Enforcement to make an effort at preventing future motorcycle wrecks and fatalities. It sounds like you guys have had a significant increase in the number of motorcycle related deaths and accidents in general. How much of that increase, do you think, is a result of more riders on the road trying to reduce their fuel consumption (costs). Any stats on how many of those accidents involve less experienced riders or unlicensed riders? I've seen more bikes out being used during the week around here, apparently as commuter vehicles and not just for weekend "fun" rides. That description would also fit for me since I, like you, take my bike for transportation almost every day and rarely ride "just for fun". Although, I will say, I enjoy my ride every day, so maybe it could be said that I ride "for fun" all the time.
