After the SCPD started cracking down in 95 I stopped going there. Anytime after that it was just outta of convenience to get to and from the south and north shore if it made sense to use DPA.

Friends of ours used to live in Deer Park and and a lot has changed. I do see that the "Bro patrols" still make stopping at that 7-11's an uncorfortable experience.

I rareley if ever have a need to travel that par tof 231 and I cant remember the last time I was down by that 7-11, maybe 03 or earlier, only because I took my futura there once. besides now it seems that the MC hatred has moved to port jeff since they want to keep all us unsightly bikers off the strip down by the ferry.

I'm sitting here trying to think of the last time I went to Port Jeff.
Annoying stop and go traffic...check
Cruiser "Loud pipes save lives...especially at every red light or stop sign" crowd....check
"Where you going where you been I heard you speeding (in bumper to bumper traffic license registration...get outta here"
Repeat 5 times.....check

Waiting 2 hours for Meh food compared to the bazillion other restaurants around LI where you can just show up and get seated without having to shout or squeeze through a packed restaurant....check.

but hey...you can look at other people's boats from a safe respectable distance.

Do you seriously expect the state DMV to do something like that. They cant chew gum and walk at the same time.

Well no but in a perfect world. Besides they would still kill themselves by borrowing a buddies 1000 and ' seeing what this baby will do!'

Sure they can. It just takes them six f**king hours to do it.

You know how bad the ywill jack up the fees. It will either force the brain dead drones to work more or they will have to hire people with a pulse and an IQ> than their shoe size.

CA has the highest ratio of riders to car drivers, so that is not a surprise that we have the highest # of deaths.
