At a local event, I recently met an out-of-town rider who introduced himself as Hamilton Bologna. Hamilton says that, in an effort to woo motorcyclists, his town has enacted a number of motorcycle-friendly changes in street signs. Since there are no trains in his town, the RR signs do not mean “Rail Road”. RR now means “Race Replica”, and designates roads where bikers can cruise at whatever speed they like. LANESPLITTING OK signs have been posted throughout the town to keep the cagers aware that they will be passed from all sides. At the DMV, signs are now posted which read:
“ALL CAGERS ARE REQUIRED TO UNDERGO MOTORCYCLE FRIENDLY SENSITIVITY TRAINING INTENSIVES BEFORE RENEWING YOUR LICENSE.”
Inside the DMV the Chubby Checker 1960’s hit “Let’s Twist Again” is continuously played to remind cagers that “stepping on the gas” means “twisting the throttle.”
Further, the words on auto-specific signs have been sensibly rewritten to reflect a more motorcycle-friendly point of view. For example, SEAT BELTS FASTENED? signs have been changed to STRAPPED INTO YOUR CAGE? Here are a few more:
A line has been added to highway speed limit signs to respect our two-wheeling community’s sensibilities:
SPEED LIMIT 65
TRUCKS 55
MOTORCYCLES 85
A politically-correct line has also been added to all TUNNEL AHEAD signs:
TUNNEL AHEAD
Downshift and Twist Your Throttle
COMMUTE LANE ONLY now reads
MOTORCYCLE LANE ONLY
ROAD DIPS DANGER is now changed to
ROAD DIPS YIPPEE
> ONE WAY> signs now read:
ONE WAY> But motorcyclists are welcome to use the sidewalk
CURVES AHEAD, now reads,
TWISTIES
STOP, has now become:
STOP wasting gas, ride a motorcycle
Other STOP signs have been changed to:
STOPPIES (Just to inform the cagers that one wheel moto-stunts may be in progress.)
YIELD, is now:
YIELD to your inner voice and become a rider
WRONG WAY signs now advise:
Gas guzzling SUVs are the WRONG WAY to preserve the planet
NO U-TURN signs have been modified thusly,
NO U-TURN, but circle wheelies are OK
