[nick crisp]

Me and a mate got nicked for speeding in France, leaving the Le Mans circuit. On-the-spot fine - I don't remember how much now, but it wasn't cheap! Word was, if you didn't have the means to pay it, they'd confiscate your bike  :eek  We weren't going silly speeds when we got pulled either. Loads of bikes were hammering past while they processed our penalty. They seemed to us to be pulling mostly Brits, so paperwork hassles for foreign riders didn't seem to bother them. That was quite a while ago, so don't know what things are like now.
