Authorities say a 28-year-old man in upstate New York has been charged with driving his motorcycle at nearly 200 mph on a highway in the rain.

State police say a trooper clocked Anthony Anderson of Poughkeepsie driving at 193 mph around 8 p.m. Wednesday in the southbound lanes of Interstate 87 just south of Albany — the same stretch of road where another motorcyclist was spotted doing 166 mph earlier this month.

The trooper was able to get a description of the high-performance bike and alerted nearby patrols.

Troopers eventually stopped Anderson in the town of Rosendale. He told them he was headed to a hospital to visit a patient.

Anderson was issued 14 traffic tickets, including one for speeding.

It couldn't be immediately determined if he had a lawyer.
I guess this is where it starts to go bad for high powered bikes some jackass who just can't keep it mellow and just know how fast his bike is. 193 in the rain is just plain ass stupid on a freeway

Dis INSULTS:

1. The tire manufacturer.
2. The infrastructure that can handle the speeds, water drainage.
3. The rider showing that humans can adapt to speed being relative.

Who-Ray for those slowass limiters. Bring up the limit to 200+? Not too many can run in the rain, hydro plain ass day, you diss the bike manufacturers that can build a bike that can do it to it.

Assholes?! You assume something will happen like he didn't crash, did he? What is your point? Pretty impressive riding. JMO.

I didn't have a problem with anything until I saw "in the rain."
