    So if someone is taking their time, enjoying the view, going under the limit and I just want to hit a couple turns within the margin of safety but enough to feel some g forces, I'll pass them.

    But you have to realize with this example that this is no basis on to which to regulate any of this stuff on some level, right?

    I mean it's not like I don't get it, love to go what most people would consider sort of ludicrous speeds on my bicycle and corner hard, same stuff at heart, and also no basis as to which decide regulations on other than that a good society would give me like a cool bicycle track (like not a velodrome) and guys like you some racetrack or hell, special scenic routes or something.

      I absolutely understand its no basis to regulate. The irony of me crying about this is very clear. The race track is always the example people propose but the special scenic routes would be nicer.

      Basically i'm shouting into the void "no please, i'm good, don't take this thing away" despite understanding that it's a net negative for society.
