Speeding lady motorcyclist from West Virginia arrested in Wildwood
A speeding lady motorcyclist from West Virginia was arrested in Wildwood.
Amanda Sue Thompson, 45, of Redhouse, W.Va., was riding a blue Can-Am motorcycle at 7:43 p.m. Thursday northbound on U.S. 301 near County Road 472 when she was traveling at 63 miles per hour in a 55 mph zone, according to an arrest report from the Wildwood Police Department.
During a traffic stop, the officer confirmed that Thompson had a valid West Virginia driver’s license, but did not have a motorcycle endorsement. She said she thought she was “grandfathered in.”
Thompson was arrested on a charge of operating a motorcycle without a license. She was booked at the Sumter County Detention Center and released after posting $50 bond.
PHILIPPI, W.Va (WDTV) – The West Virginia Mountain Bike Association kicked off its cross country series Sunday with the Race to Lil Moe’s in Philippi.
The event had options for all skill levels. Bikers had the choice to race 6 miles, 14 miles, or 19 miles.
Each race had a mix of straight track biking, and twisting and climbing through the woods. Bikers of all ages could participate, and each age group had its own race and results.
“I really do think that trails build community, and if you can get outdoor activity where people can come out and hike and bike,” said George Finly, a mountain biker and trail volunteer. “This is as much as a hiking trail as it is a biking trail. It’s right along the river, which is beautiful. Eagles were flying back and forth yesterday, and today is great because we’ve got a lot of kids out here.”
The next WVMBA cross country mountain bike race will be April 19 in Buckhannon.
