I noticed over the last couple weeks my front brake lever is depressing way too much, it's pretty much making contact with the grip. This never use to be the case, it just started in the last couple weeks. I checked the brake pads and there is still plenty of brake pad left. Also, brake fluid...

I'll be there. Great day for a nice spirited ride.

When are we going to start these rides up again? Weather looks pretty good next Thursday. I'm just saying.

What type of pace is this ride gonna be? Also, how long do you expect this ride to take?

I guess been throught the exact scenario OP describe: I was clocked going 26 over, cop reduced it down to 10 over. At first, I even thought about just paying the ticket off because it was peanuts. But then I woke up and fought it. I went to court, lined up waiting to speak to the crown...

but is a call from a cager considered reasonable grounds? How can the cop be sure the caller is telling the truth? Doesn't this leave alot of room interpretation. For example, if the caller says that he saw a group of bikes going 150km in an 80, how that can be reasonable or probable grounds...
