Bike's worth about £5000 I reckon. Hmmm, Canon EOS 5 MKIII?

I can listen to nails running down a blackboard but if I am unlucky enough to be in earshot of a TV when the audience all clap along out of time with the Strictly theme . . .

Idiots in so-called luxury brand cars that scream down a slip road at 90 onto a crowded M25 who just miss colliding with several cars as they go STRAIGHT to lane 4 and stand on the anchors to join the 50 mph queue. Any bike filtering between lanes 3 and 4 would not have been seen and just wiped out.
