Riding in Europe is the best in terms of freedom... The freedom to speed (with minimal penalty), the freedom of not having to worry about your insurance going up for traffic violations, the freedom to park literally wherever you want in the city core, the freedom to lane split, use bus lanes etc. etc. etc...
Dude... this is a public forum, so I can't list my driving offenses, but let's just say in Canada, my bike would have been impounded numerous times and I would have been broke paying 10's of thousands of dollars in fines and insurance would have been unaffordable for anything more than a scooter.
I love Canada, I love the roads, but having cops hiding in driveways & making u-turns to chase you down at dangerous speeds for a freaking speeding ticket is just something I don't have to worry about anymore living in Europe.
I'm surprised chiller got some speeding tickets on a bike! I've been riding all over Europe and have NEVER received one on a bike since they usually take the photos from the front.
