It is hiding somewhere in my bike…

Monday morning, I took my SV out for commute. As it idled the headlight flickered once. This was the first sign. I rode it down the street for about 3/4 of a mile, then the headlight dimmed and the needles in my gage went NUTS. So I turn around [...]

っとしたのは昨日の朝の通勤、
HOV(High Occupancy Vehicle Lane)ってのがあって、車に２人以上乗ってないと入れないレーンってのがあんの。（通勤の渋滞を緩和させるため）一人乗りのオートバイもこのレーンに入れんだけど、他に車が走ってないとこのレーンがめちゃくちゃ楽しいんじゃなぁ〜〜〜〜〜。気がつくとアクセルが回ってる、回ってる。楽しみながらミラーを見ると、ずううううううううっっっっっっと後ろの方にヘッドライトが見えんじゃん。何も気にせずそのまま朝のきたねえヒューストン空気をエンジョイ！（ゴホッ）と思いきや、途中のHOV入り口から車が入ってきて規定速度までダウン。んで、バックミラー見たらさっきの後ろのヘッドライトはおまわりしゃんでありました。(O.O);;;;;;;
やべ〜〜〜〜〜、ずっと俺のこと追ってたのかな？まだ赤青灯ともしてないけど、HOVから出たら止められんのかなぁ〜〜〜〜。かんべんしてなぁぁぁぁぁ……なんて考えながら１５マイルハラハラドキドキ運転。３ヶ月前に切符切られたばっかだよ。カンニンしてや。カアちゃんにまたどなられるっつうの。
HOVから出たところで……ハリス郡警察のアフリカンアメリカン嬢はおいらの右から追い越していく。
彼女こっち見て
ニコ〜〜〜〜〜〜〜
おいらも一緒に
ニコ〜〜〜〜〜〜〜（冷や汗だらだら）
びびったーーーーーーーー！！！！！！
