Yes, it is very cool.

It would be awesome to do something like that here, but unlike France, our traffic laws are state-by-state so you'd never get the turnout unless bikers are willing to cross state lines to do it -- which would be highlighted by people opposed to changing the laws.

Certainly 100,000 bikers showing up in a state capital would get attention.  The only place you could do that would be California though and they already have non-criminal lane filtering!

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.
