A man decided that he was going to ride his bike from Phoenix to Flagstaff. He got as far as Black Canyon City before the mountains just became too much and he could go no farther.
He stuck his thumb out but after 3 hours, hadn’t gotten a single person to stop. Finally a guy in a Corvette pulled over and offered him a ride. Of course, the bike wouldn’t fit in the car.
The owner of the Vette found a piece of rope lying by the highway and tied it to his bumper. Then he tied the other end to the bike and told the man that if he got to going too fast, to honk the horn on his bike and that he would slow down.
Everything was fine for the first 30 miles.
Suddenly, another Corvette blew past them.
Not to be outdone, the guy pulling the bike took off after the other. A short distance down the road, the two Corvettes, were both going well over 120 mph and blew through a speed trap. The police officer noted the speed from his radar gun and radioed to another officer that he had the two cars headed his way at over 120 mph. He then said, “and your not going to believe this, but there’s guy on a bicycle honking to pass”.
