Police biker?

I have a good idea who he is. belongs to my IAM group,
he is harmless, he just likes the look of being one.

he is a good chap, as he does the blood runner thing etc.

Doesn't say much for your IAM group!

Tbh, its a tall bike and he is quite short!

IAM- is not as difficult to get as you may think, its more about road position and speed limits than absolute confidence.

could be a service guy returning the bike..?

Well if it's him I'm very surprised Dan mistook him for police. His bike (Pan Euro) & clothing does not say Police anywhere on it.

& I thought with him, it was just a visibility thing rather than an impersonation thing?

Do you mean 2 rear red fog lights (slightly high?)

Didn't he say it was a BMW?

not always true i've found. when we did our bike safe day the coppers therer were saying they had a couple of bikes older than that in their fleet (one of them being there on the day). it all depends how much money the force has i think.

this bloke however doesn't sound like a police standard rider, i don't any of them are bad enough to have off days like that.

To be honest, despite looking like a flourescent day-glo lollypop lady on a bright red (ok, muddy salt encrusted rust coloured) bike with headlights on, apparently I'm still completely feckin invisible.

If I could get hold a white Pan, a white lid and some flashy lights and siren - well, it's the only thing I haven't tried yet.

I've got a matt black bike, black jacket, black lid, cammo pants. I'm fairly sure car drivers would still be retarded if I was dressed like a tw4t too lol
