It happened. The philly dirt bike police came back in the kenso woods this past sunday.<\/p>\n
To make a long story short, they took our bikes, but we got them back the next morning since they’re street legal \/ registered \/ insured \/ we have mc licenses etc… They did it just to fuck with us.<\/p>\n
So… the full story goes like this:<\/p>\n
Our buddy Chris<\/a> shot the first two photos and the rest are crappy iPhone pics.<\/p>\n This was a bummer to see.<\/p>\n They just plopped them all leaning on each other and then ratchet-strapped them down pretty tight.<\/p>\n Tons of quads and dirt bikes in the impound lot. Ours were the only 4 with legit license plates. Go-figure.<\/p>\n This is what they were threatening us with. The ATV 7702 violation. So fucking dumb. It doesn’t apply to us at all. We didn’t break code 7702. We can’t. We have 2 wheels. Regardless, they cops gave us this paper and said this is how we’d get our bikes back. So dumb.<\/p>\n My “property receipt”. Notice under bullet item 1, the cop wrote “public property” accidentally instead of private. ha.<\/p>\n
