The important thing with the ticket is to avoid the points, so try to divert to the school option. There is no way out without money but the nice thing is once its paid and done you have a clean slate.
For sure. I might have to sell the bike but if I do I'll probably at least get a little scooter or something. I can't not ride :-)

What does it say on the ticket about how he estimated/measured your speed? There are checkboxes for laser, radar, VASCAR, etc. Laser isn't yet usable when moving, so it's almost certainly a radar measurement.
Aw man. Just looked at the ticket. He measured it with radar that was equipped on the vehicle. Darn. I thought he just estimated.
