BOSM plod alert

Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Christofire

I always seem to develop a transient ignition problem when passing
revenue vans. Somehow, my ignition cuts, then comes back in *just* as I
pass the van.

It's all very odd.

wisdom:

Mine plays that, seriously but I'd rather give them the donkey noises.

IKWYM. I like playing the pig and chicken at pedestrian crossings

 

Hmm. I think I'd have removed the number plate and then done a U
turn.

 

I used to use a much better scheme. May resurrect it this summer.

 

I've never known anyone push their bike backwards away but a mate
pulled up, tied the bin liner his sleeping bag was in over the plate
and f**ked off. It's not beyond the wit of man...

I'm assuming Plod hire civvies to run their scamera schemes. If it's a
real plod biker they can just use their radar gun as normal... ...and
if it's a real plod biker there even a chance they will probably be
fairish in their reaction to a bike at 60.000001mph.

What you want to do it cut your bike off right about --->Here<--- so you
can cover your plate with your hand as you go past

 

I've just had a look on the Derby Police site: I have the all clear for
both my possible routes ;-)

You *will* be remembering to renew your tax disc this time...?

 

I got a letter saying the summons was being withdrawn.

Trust me, it's worth arguing the toss when they are talking about noting the
plate of a vehicle speeding away at "x"[1] mph...


[1] Number withheld to protect it's identity.

 

Riding within the speed limit?

 

I'd rather not say on here, if you don't mind.

 

Shhh! If I get caught admitting to that my reputation will be shot.

 

Na, mine was a fair cop. 71 in a temp 50 and they offered me a FPN.
Bargain.

 

Or the horse every time you come down Bevis Marks ;-)

 

In uk.rec.motorcycles, antonye amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom:

I've thought, I've googled, I've multimapped and thought some more and I
still don't have a clue what you're going on about

 

Yep, you bet it is... and when it doesn't work for stopping people
falling off bikes, other so called safety things will come along.

 

Someone I know was nicked for this. He did reverse about a quater of a
mile though.

 

You're not setting it alight again are you?

 

"Fairy wheels"

 

Scooters?
