I'm convinced that there are some secret options in cars that they don't
tell us bikers about. One is the Bumper Magnet. Cars come up to you and
turn the Bumper Magnets on. You can speed up or slow down, and they
stick to you. You have to speed up a lot to break the magnetic
attraction.

I think that Bumper magnets and Einsteinian Relativity Discombobulators
should be banned.

At least the Bumper Magnets should automatically disengage outside of
a range from 10 mph below the speed limit to 10 mph above.

The surest way I know to break the mag lock is to travel back south of the Wisconsin border.
