[QUOTE="Bill Lumberg, post: 1407492, member: 87479"] Philter- I don't speak for the IBA, but I have several rides certified, some that were done at a brisk but responsible pace. The IBA does not condone or put up with reckless behavior, but it requires participants to understand that motorcycle riding is a risky pursuit. A ride will not normally be DQ'd due to a calculation of speed, due (I assume) to the myriad variances in speed limits, variances in speed calculation, particularly over distance. They look carefully to makes sure that their rules are met (receipts, essential information on those receipts, trip log, gps/spot hacks (entirely optional), witnesses (for some rides), max miles between refuels, etc. Their reviewers are painstaking in their attention to detail, and are terrific to deal with. So no, as long as all other rules are met, IBA leaves policing to the police, and verification to the IBA verification teams. Do stupid stuff and brag about it, and you'll find your cert pulled with a quickness. Mr. Kneebone is fiercely protective of the reputation of the IBA, and of the LD riding community. [/QUOTE]
