Foccin bridges in wind!! Went out for a ride today and obviosuly its quite windy, went from south to north over the humber bridge (tolls of the north side) with no issues, tried to come back 30 mins later only to be told at the toll that its closed to high sided vehicles which for some mad reason includes motorbikes!!
I was told to pull up in the car park to the left and either wait or make the 1 hour detour to drive round. It was 2.40 and I needed to be at school to pick my kids up at 3.30, I tried to explain that to no avail and then argued as to why there were motorbikes (and lorrys, caravansn trailers etc) coming across the northbound route and was just told they had ignored the signs..... so I ignored the moron employee and just rode across anyway. I might have a fine coming through the post soon but I wasn't the only person ignoring their stupid advice so hopefully nothing will come of it.
Just really winds me up, could understand it if I was an arctic or something but I'm on a bludy bike!
