    As a former policeman (though never a bike cop) I appreciated this photo a lot! Contrary to popular
    belief, most police officers laugh about donut jokes too! Especially since the donut thing is a
    myth. (Most cops are in donut shops for the coffee and because the donut shops are OPEN.) I will
    keep this photo and share with friends. 🙂

    You laugh... but it is a proven fact that two sugar-glased donuts can provide the extra burst of
    speed needed when an officer is chasing a suspect in a turbo Mustang.

    I wonder why the photo caption says the bike is a Fuji but the decal on the frame indicates it
    is a Giant.

    Maybe it should have been "Fiji" ;-)

    This is the caption:
    "Giant Police Bike

    This special fitting should make the Giant police model a big success..."

    Has it been changed?
