Lucky lucky...
 
Riding back from Ireland via Holyhead this evening. Decided to open the bike up and was touching the little SV's limit. Car coming towards me flashed me so I slowed down to 70. Sure enough round the corner is one of North Wales finest police cars. A bit further on I'm about to go flying past a car when he winds his window down and gives me the slow down signal. I couldn't work out why but I spot a bike in front. Coming up to roadworsk and a 50 limit I'm doing about 55 but the bike in front is doing a rigid 50. Something not quite right there. So I sit in behind the bike. A van goes flying past and blue light seem to appear from no where on the bike as he pulls the van over. Crafty police using an unmarked black Honda (blackbird I think) with black paniers. The only thing that made me a little suspicious was the white helmet with Black leathers. If it wasn't a copper then someone needed to call the fashion police!

Saw about another 3-4 cars on the way back to Leeds but I was being sensible then and letting cars lead the way.

Good observation noticing the other bike's constant speed and the white helmet. :thumbsup:
