Think Your Motorcycle Moves Are Better Than Amarillo PD? Find Out.

It seems one of the things we love to see in Amarillo, TX. is police doing police-type things. We have the race a cop event that draws a lot of people out. I mean, we all know the cops can get on that gas pedal and go.

What about those motorcycle cops though? Being able to be agile and do all sorts of different maneuvers on a big bike isn't easy. Quick and tight turns, being able to weave in and out at high speeds. Those things take some serious training.
