#1 I think someone else had this idea last week...but just to restate it...stretch some 1/8 diameter aircraft cable across the road...paint it black...hang it *tight* at just neck height...stand at one end of the road and taunt the SOBs. Watch them come screaming down the road and...WHUNG!! LOL!!

This will really put a cramp in their style. Do it once and they will learn to think twice about tear-assing around on their motorcycles.

#2 34 motorbikes

Good. The "vigilantes" use motorbikes to intimidate the crowds.

#3 I wonder what kind of motorbikes the Khomenei thugs are using. If they are the small kind that are used by teens for recreation in the US, the motorbike can be disabled pretty easily by sticking a piece of metal in the right place.

#4 Thumbtacks on the ground, a pipe or stick in the spokes, anything thrown at the driver. A motorbike really is a bad vehicle to use for intimidation.

#6 Looks like the mullah's bullyboys missed Bike Week at Laconia.

#7 ABC had video of the mullah BikerBoyz on the news tonight. Looked like 500cc bikes at the minimum, driver with rider on back, guess he'd be the one swinging the club. Also they were traveling in a pack of about 15 - 20 bikers, tight together using the mass of bikes as a wedge or a ruby scrurm. Try to pick off one and you'd be swarmed under. Kind of like how the old horse calvery was used on rioters. Oh, and they were all wearing the same camo uniforms.

#9 Watchers tactic is the simplist.
There have been good tactics used aginst a cavalry charge for thousands of years(maybe these students should read a couple of history texts).For instance Alexander's Pflanix,and the British Sguare.
