Paddy Galore! Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 (edited) You're telling me! darenot go out on mine at the moment, its fully legal but because it was originally a full blown motocrosser and now on a Q plate it draws a lot of attention and is a pain in th A hole to start. they're everywhere! spoke to one and they're doing a clamp down on car tax, insurance, mot, and the like. I got pulled over last year for a "chat" while in my van and had an "interview" with someone from dept work and pensions.

Perhaps whilst its just wet they can make progress through traffic better than a car could? Does seem strange now the road conditions couldn't be less bike friendly. But i too have noticed more bikes about. Im sure one of our resident officers will be along shortly to enlighten us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozzy518 Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Its because now that we are nearing the end of the financial year the budget has gotta be used up so they issue all the leather trousers in stores....now we all know that we cant walk around the streets in leather trousers looking like we are on our way to the Blue Oyster Club for a YMCA reunion so we have to take the motorbikes out instead.....

Jim Sarakun Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I believe that too. I saw one going down the road in his tight leathers, high viz and a yellow Bob the Builder hat. Why though was the one behind him dressed like an Indian Squaw. You sure you lot don't frequent those YMCA reunions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
