Angry Oregon destroys my faith.

Oregon has made it illegal for me to ride my bike I can no longer ride my bike because my license is suspended. Such a shame, it's not like I've ever got a dui or anything just BS fines from when I was a kid.

It has not been legal to have motor assisted bicycle engines over 25cc for over 50 years here in Sweden. Do I care? No. I ride that bastard. Do your stuff!

LoL, cops around here can be ******rs. Most of them are twenty year old punks that like to make problems. I have a lot of time and money into this thing, if a cop tried to take my baby I'd have to do something drastic and that would cause issues for MB's nation wide. I don't want to ruin it for anyone.

It's just takes one bent out of shape cop to make me have a very bad day. I'm am writing a letter to the judge, if that doesn't work it's the mayor. All their suspension does is prevent people from being able to make the money to pay their fines. I would be IT at my company and be salaried right now, up and comming shining all star.....your license is suspended......................O...nevermind. I was offered a position in a moving company for $23 bucks an hour, no license.......O....Nevermind. I'm really lucky to make what I do in this town considering. I'll probably ride it it is my only transport. Or once it has a full suspension I could try to sell the finished product for a Grand and pay off the initial fat payment to unsuspend my license. If I could do that then I could afford to continue payments to keep it from suspension. Seems to honestly be the best option. I hope someone would buy it I know I could sell it to someone around here during tax return time, or just contact a few of the upper crust's.

I guess you should have paid the fines on time.
