Re: Caught Speeding.... bugger.
I hate the idea of doing enforcement through speed cameras. I'd never personally issue a citation for 6 mph over the speed limit. Cameras take all the ability to apply common sense out of policing, which does absolutely nothing to improve relationships between the public and law enforcement. ...

Re: Bank Holiday Monday Rideout - Buxton
I'll be there.
I'm tempted to have a spot of brekkie first, Monty-style (not rushed, just chilling out).
It's only an hour to get there for me. Well, it's an hour and a half if I take some decent roads up there instead of all this straight road nonsense!

Re: What to do if bike thieves are following you
I always try to switch routes regularly. IMO using the same route day after day can lead to complacency, that's when mistakes and accidents happen.Kwacky wrote:I take about 6 different routes home. Bugger all to do with thieves and everything to do with what mood I'm in.
