Had to attend one last year, got clocked at 8am Sunday morning going down to help with bike parking for the May Day run at Hastings on R1.
[/size][/color]Was apparently doing 39mph in a 30 at Hurst Green, God knows where they were hiding, it was like a ghost town, nobody about apart from me (or so I thought).
[/size][/color]That to me is not about road safety, more about money, or perhaps they were bored :rolleyes
[/size][/color]I am hoping that bike isn't jinxed as my son is having it in November, but in the six years I've had it, I attracted two speeding tickets, the other in Scotland when I mistakenly thought motorway speed was 70mph, but on the Glasgow/Edinburgh interchange it is 50!, been knocked off it three times, nice little payouts and poor bike has had more plastic surgery than a film star.

Age is a question of mind over matter, if you don't mind, it doesn't matter!
