Obergruppenfuhrer disgruntled von beemer-driver phoned the police and they sent an unmarked bike to film us.

As the cop said while we were watching the vid, "siz is not ze isle of man, zis is just germany"

Alas, no. We almost got a video of Preston's MV being noise-tested, but Steve pressed the wrong button on his phone so all we got was the still.

You went 260 kph!!!! Oh wait, that's the fine. What's the reason translate as? "mumble mumble 40 kph, mumble unclear traffic something".

According to Google translate, something like "exceeding the speed limit by 40kph and overtaking where it is not clear to do so"

Which is fair enough really, because we were overtaking with some relish and the number on my speedo was rather more than 40kph over the limit.
