Hmm, what sort of bike is that up ahead......
Looks like it might be a white hornet.... not sure though.....
Could be Dan actually.... not many white hornets around....
Better try and catch him before that bloody big bend.....
Come on come on..... bloody traffic....
Getting near the bend now... still can't tell if it's him or not.....
Oh sh*t, he's sticking his knee out, I'll never catch him now....
.......byeeee.........
Out of the bend now.... can still see him....just....
Maybe if I do 120 I can catch him by the time we reach the Denham exit....
Phew, caught him finally, it is Dan...
Good morning!

I do that route each day :D
Out of interest, what sort of speeds do you manage each way round that junction
I guess I'm very slow :cry:

Well... my best so far is 65, but I've only been riding since May so I'm still learning really (excuses excuses)
But it looks like 90 is a baaaad idea: see here (http://forums.sv650.org/viewtopic.php?p=558286#558286)

LOL! I thought it might be you Mark! I was thinking, "W reg SV, little plate, nice can" Looks like Mark. Nah, can't be. Only things is I forgot I was wearing my waterproofs again, doh! Luckily that have armour on the knee! I usually get about 85-90ish round that bend. Have had a tonne round it though but it's not a good idea! :roll:

Hmm - I usually manage around 80 when going from the M25-M40, but struggle to top around 55 when coming back the other way, at least on the first section
Oh well, more practice tomorrow :lol:

Which way are you going Mr Toad?
Dan's talking about the M25-M40 heading into London... is this what you mean too?
