Haha I'm not a poser....

Great day out though for sure...the sun was shining and it was a little chilly though....

On the way there, I was going nice and slow 60mph....

Then my brother is asking me why am I not going in the fast lane....which I did, but speed cameras on the M25 every 500 metres at one point. I prefer to take it slow.

Davez29, when Can I come and meet you????? :mrgreen:

Yes these cameras are a pain in the bum, and those new speeding laws worry me, not so much the higher ones as if you are truly speeding, well expect to lose one day. But doing 31 and getting done for it is worrying, as despite never speeding in a 30 i think 1mph above is a bit to strict and not enough leeway, they should have kept it to 33mph.

Yea maybe we will meet one day if 400gb go back to Bruntingthorpe as i missed the last one sadly due to a friend pulling out.

Yea I already went on a speed awareness course because a friend of mine who rides like a nutcase on a YAMAHA R1 2007.

I was keeping up with him on country lane roads in hertfordshire and when I overtook a car, it was like I fell into a trap and the speed camera was there. I managed to slow down to 40mph, also thinking the speed limit was 40mph. It turned out to be 30mph and a big bright white light flashed all AROUND ME. My other friend whom was also on a CBR 400 NC29 was saying hopefully the car behind would block my number plate or something, but alas...a few days later I got the letter for speeding.

I ticked my name and said it was me riding the bike and sent it by fast post. I got a letter coming back after two days saying I can either take a speed awareness course or I can take 3 points and 100 pound fine.....LOL obviously I took the speed awareness course and it was a good day on the speed awareness course.

The session was 4 hours long and with like 25 other speed motorists, the presenter was funny and it involved everyone taking part etc.

After that lol I dont want to go on another speed awareness course. Also I have to say being the only biker there, this women behind me was a little F annoying, I GET SHE dont like bikes and neither did others, talking about accidents and shit. Dumb B she got caught speeding twice on the same F road and she looking at me.

Presenter asks me if I have ever got involved in an accident and then I said no. He says well done to me LOL....the presenters were good, just the women behind who irritated me.

I should have asked her if she wanted a ride with ME LOLL.

We can meet up openly anywhere you want? I didnt mean we have to meet up on a racetrack.

I would like to meet up, how about next week or weekend?
