Fresh out of prison for being convicted of 1st degree rape and 1st degree sexual abuse and receiving a 100 month sentence in 2017, Elmer Bigelow, the wanna be gigolo, decides to flee from police. A deputy gets behind a motorcycle on Hwy. 42, mile post 2 and the rider decides to show off his mechanics skills by taking off and fleeing. He turns onto the speedway property and rides through the speedway and onto a dirt road in the back. Well, it turns out he thinks way too highly of his mechanics skills because the bike starts to back fire and lose power. This temporary setback doesn’t stop him, though. He has way too much pride in his work to think it is anything more than just a little bad fuel, so he keeps going, only to have it continue to backfire and lose power. What is his solution? Just ride it out. 10 mph is a safe speed to run from the police. At least he won’t crash into a fence like Michael Farnham did. The deputy and an officer arrest him up in the woods. To get the bike out, they make him take it out to 42, where they leave the bike and take him to jail. Guess they didn’t have mechanics classes in prison.
