    Gonna watch this.

    An if its as biased as the promo in Radio Times promises, the address you'll
    be wanting is:

    www.bbc.co.u/complaints

    And ask 'em:

    (i) If motorcyclists are predominantly male and white isn't it illegal
    indirect sex and race discrimination to unfairly pick them out for having
    shit thrown at them?

    and

    (ii) Would they be so happy to run a leader in Radio Times if the word
    Motorcyclists was swapped for, lets say a large religious group such as one
    starting with the same letter as say 'Motorcyclists'.

    (ii) Then there could be a raft of things like statistics, comparative
    conviction rates of bikers, relative menace of drunken twats, diesel
    spillers, car windscreen pillar designers ...... what've I missed?

    Of course it may be accurate and unbiased.

    An all the pigs may be fed and ready to fly.

    It will be copied and pasted, sir. I wasn't going to watch it, but since
    you've reminded me I will.

    My TV guide says: Traffic cops - the truth about speed cameras... Is that
    the same one?

  6. It's a repeat. I've seen it before.

    It's a repeat. And from my original watching, assuming it's the one I think
    it is, it weren't that biased at all. The biker in question seemed to be
    behaving like a nob (again IIRC)

    Hmm..

    Looks like a Bandit of some sort, a 1200 I think. The police crash
    investigator said it has a top speed of 165mph.

    True, but I think maybe the police were hyping up the top speed of the
    bike a bit, for the 'Ooooh, aren't those bikes dangerously fast' thing.

    The rider was pissed and stoned. No excuses.

  15. You didn't miss much, they cut it in half and didn't show the Blackbird.
    Your missus is very lucky, but I bet you like wife swap too, eh?
    I like playing with mine as well ;o)

  17. I don't really mind that. People that ride bikes already know how fast a
    Bandit will go and people who think bikers are all bay eating murderers
    can go and jump in the lake.

    GSXR750/1100 by the looks of it.

    What a load a crap. Somebody crashes their bike which has no brakes
    while pissed and stoned. I'm frankly disappointed I expected hordes of
    mad bikers raping and pillaging across the country.

    Sure? I'm sure it had a silver frame and USD's and anyway a bandit 1200
    wont do 165 and the police wouldn't exaggerate would they...
