Really grinds my gears

Just wanted to vent and something that really grinds my gears:

So, I just got my first bike this week, I got it put together, had some issues, some of you guys helped me out, and finally got it all squared away and pretty.

I want to test it, as you would, so I did a couple of loops in my neighborhood to make sure everything is as it should be before I load it up and go off to a park to do some riding, I need to make it's all good to go. My bike isn't even loud, my wife said lawn mowers are louder in my neighborhood, some old ass POS comes out and waves me over and starts to nag me about, "do you live in this neighborhood" - yes, sir I do, I pay my HOA just like you do, I just got this bike and I'm doing a test run. "Well did you know this is a public road, and I work for the department of transportation, I don't want to call the cops, but do you even have this thing registered." No sir, it's a dirt bike, I'm just testing it since I just got it. "Well you can't be riding if it's not registered on a public road, and this is a public road, and you can't ride up on the grass that's a public space and tear it all up and the speed limit is only 25 here and you were going really fast" Ok then, well I live here and I was just testing it. Thanks man.

JESUS what a straight A-hole.

Now all I want to do is go buy a dual sport or enduro now and get it registered and just ride up and down my street all damn day just to piss him off and he can't do anything. Some people just need to not exist.

Rant over... I'm guessing some of you had some of the same experiences.
