The I-10 Bayway was turned into a parking lot Sunday morning. Alabama State Troopers say, they got several complaints from drivers about a group of speeding motorcyclists heading west on Interstate 10.
One Alabama State Trooper near the Wilcox Exit reported seeing the bikers speeding at over a hundred miles an hour.
Anothter trooper further west estimated they were going over 140 miles an hour.
Troopers called ahead and blocked the westbound lanes of the Bayway near the Causeway exit and stopped the motorcyclists.
12 were taken into custody.
Authorities say the motorcyclists were all taken to the Baldwin County Jail and are charged with traffic violations.
News 5 spoke with one of the bikers, Terry Moore, who says the 12 arrested were part of a larger group of military and retired military riders who were on their way to Mobile to take part in a cancer charity event.
Moore claims the "real" speeders avoided the roadblock. But, he says he's not bitter and that the troopers were just doing their jobs.
