Check out that rear [TW rider N. Wales]

Sorry folks, not what you were expecting.

I was driving the car up the A55 from Bangor to Colwyn Bay last night (so I was heading westbound). Just before Penmaenmawr I saw a grey TW, possibly 125, maybe 200. It would of been just before 5pm. Forgive the lack of technical term, but for want of a better term, his stock 'tail tidy' is loose. Loose as in I hope he doesn't hurt himself when it goes up under his seat & down under the rear wheel!

Since I was driving the car, it was hard to get his attention & convey the message properly, so I left it with a hazard flash, left, right indicator, flash rear fog a few times to give him the idea something on the back of the bike wasn't quite right. Didn't want to be overly intimidating, but I had thought of getting ahead to get attention, then backing off to the side to talk, but ruled that out as I doubt Mr. Plod would be appreciative. Had I been on the SV I'd of probably been able to inform him better (holding the grab rail whilst I rode etc).

If anyone is around that way (thinking mainly of the locals) please pass along my concern for his well-being. That's the first time I've seen him, so maybe a slightly wider area, but I don't know. I hope he gets it sorted before something nasty happens. If I spot him again I'll try tell him again, assuming he didn't get the message last night.

Ride safe peeps.
