Go ahead and speed on my street….

[Srgt. Hulka]

Can I borrow your speed bumps for a while? I'd sit back and laugh my ass off.
Below is a picture of what my neighbors use as speed bumps. I've lived in my house for 24 years, and have lost 10 mailboxes, maybe more, I've lost count. I've had three times as many tracks through the middle of my yard so they could miss the mailbox. When my kids were small, they were not allowed to play in their own front yard. Fuck all those speeding motherfuckers. The speed limit is 25. I'd like to but a bullet through the radiator of every MF that comes by my house at 55 or 60. A cop asked me one time, "Have you ever thought about moving your mailbox around the corner?" I told him, "Fuck that. The mother fuckers need to drive in the street and not my yard."

Was it a M1 Abrams?

A reinforced concrete mailbox and a few well placed boulders could work out well for you.

They called them, "Speed Cushions" in a little town I visited in North Carolina.

You have to hit those double ones fast enough that you clear the second one.

yep the ol' motocross double

Was it a M1 Abrams?

It was a BMW running, I figured, about 55 mph. I did get the satisfaction of knowing that the car was totaled.

The car parts I picked up out of the yard.

 

[Srgt. Hulka]

This has crossed my mind many times. The full length of the yard.

Geez, some of you guys seem like triggered snowflakes. Do I really need to state the obvious to satisfy some?

Of course, these speed bumps look like something unusual and even dangerous that will not stand the test of time. That goes without saying.

So, for those of you who are triggered, you can rest easy tonight knowing that Lug Nut agrees.

Of course, this brings up a concern: Why are many around here so ready to go on the attack at the drop of a hat?

And I mean this in a nice way, maybe some outdoor endurance exercise would help?

Peace.

Must be retired or have a .gov “job” also. No hurry to get anywhere

You'd think they could stay on the road when it's this wide

 

[Jgunner]

Some people just don't understand valving and midstroke compliance. Nevermind race sag and small bump compliance.

Shit, i have no idea what you just said! However, my bypasses seem to keep me happy, just need to work on my front valving.

Or ride on the balls of your feet and get”ahead” of the bike. Should hit it faster and just double the two bumps!

 

[Maser]

If an EV hits those bumps the wrong way it's gonna burst into flames.

 

[OldSalty2]

No need for speedbumps here. Streets in my town are so pot-holled and ate up that you cant speed without rattling your teeth out anyways. And they are working on them constantly it seems. They pave small sections at a time and it will be nice for a couple years, then its all fucked up again.

LOL, I knew when I posted that, someone was going to google earth it.

But you’re right, lots of room to drive. You don’t need my yard too.
