Walker570 Posted November 27, 2020 Report Share Posted November 27, 2020 I'm surprised the police didn't just give if a caution like they suggest for shop lifting thieves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powler Posted November 27, 2020 Report Share Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) And his bike should be crushed into a nice cube and given back to him with the bill for crushing and carriage. Unless it was stolen of course. Edited November 27, 2020 by powler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walker570 Posted November 27, 2020 Report Share Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) Slightly off kilter but interesting and funny. In 1964 I took a course on motor cycles at Stafford Police Training Centre and often we would wander around the Derbyshire Dales. One Morning I was lead rider just out of Ashborne and a long straight ahead encouraged a tightening of the right wrist. I thought I was going pretty fast when my Instructor pulled alongside and in no uncertain terms told me to get a move on. At that point my gaze was drawn to an open gate to a field on the offside and a large black and white cow emerging the colour of the road surface from that gate to the farm drive opposite indicated this was a regular thorughfare of bovine creatures. I still have that flash back of the nostrils of that cow passing my shoulder and a starnge smell eminating from my Instructor as he passed very close to the rear end. We pulled into a laybye and desolved into embarresed nervous laughter BUT it taught the lesson of being aware of your surroundings. I suppose we would be touching 80mph at the time which was close to maximum on the A65 BSAs we had.
