Do you find it difficult in identifying police riders now that they are encouraging everybody to wear high-viz?
Last night on the A12 I-"Came across" one on a brand new silver BMW Sports which did not seem to have any markings to the rear and only two small blue lights to the front. May I add the nice man waved his finger to say "Hello" |

Last weekend in Warwickshire came across 4 police officers on unmarked bikes, but wearing the usual Hi-Viz jackets with the blue reflective police lettering across the back of the jacket.
Didn't notice what bikes they were riding, but they were 2 sportsbikes and 2 large naked streetbikes. Had fun following them for a while anyway until they pulled in and waved me past, then they followed me for a while (s**t!), so I pretty much behaved myself and rode like they would like you to on a bikesafe, and stuck within 10% + 2mph (which is lot less than we had been doing when I was behind them!) so they pulled up an did a u turn after a mile or two. There's a good chance that they were the same guys and recognised the bike from a bikesafe event a few days earlier. |

More likely they were just out for a play and just wanted to follow you long enough to run a check on your bike and make sure you weren't the Chief Inspector on his day off.....
