M6 Toll...............

................they what? Unbelievable that one. Bar Stewards.

What a great website - been whinging to then already!

Petrol station - crash helmet thing: Remove your helmet to reveal thermal balaclava type thing underneath... "ahh, but the sign doesnt mention them..."

M6 toll, stash your money somewhere where it takes aaaaages to find it thus delaying everyone behind you. They may decide its such a hassle getting bikes to pay that they make it free....

I once dropped about £10 in small change all around my bike while trying to pay, took 10 minutes to pick it all up then another few to put my gloves back on. By this time there was a huge queue behind me and rather a few impatient people. By the time I got through the toll the motorway was even more empty than usual, and I had a lovely 120mph romp all the way.

Oh Yes! I like the mans' style :twisted: Reckon that you could be right about the toll money.

Cheers for the tip,

Garry :wink:

pretty sure the Toll is still £3-50 cars and £2-50 bikes (peak times).

I came down yesterday in a car and I'm sure that was still right. :?

(well worth £3-50 just to avoid J10-J8 on the M6 :evil: )

It's a pretty nice road, and you have the option to use the M6 if you don't like the Toll, it's not compulsory. I do think £2-50 is too much for a bike, I used it quite a lot before they put up the prices, but there again the M6 can be hell when it's heavy traffic and raining and cold and dark and........ :roll:

Lets face is though...

...removing crash helmets in petrol stations is not a bad thing. It would be so easy to hide form CCTV etc. with a helmet and then hold the place up before getting away on a fast bike.

tend to agree, there's been a bank raid by 4 blokes who made off on 2 bikes, and 3 robberies of late-night convenience stores by a biker in this area recently, so yes it does happen.

thats not the issue with me at all.

its when they talk to you as if you ARE going to rob them that fecks me off.

or when there are being rude over the tannoys to you.
if im politely asked - no problems.
