Ahhh doors posts and gates. Such an adrenalin rush.......

In many respects I'm quite hoping to see this guy again so I can get the reg. no. of the silly sausage and get him off the road. Sadly I can recall looking at the plate and thinking it was quite an old registration, but it totally escapes me... next time, oh yes, next time my friend...

when i did my test the examiner had a pan european, had all the reflective stripes and everything else, apart from the police lettering, he also had black leathers and a white flip up lid, if it said police on his bike then he could get done for impersonating a police officer but it didnt, all he is doing is letting peoples imagination run riot

I have seen old police bikes around here but Im sure they courier documents around and things. They seem to be marked up but without blue light.

On our DAS one of the instructors was a copper. We did U turns on this bridge that runs over the A289 in Medway where people bomb to and from the M2. The amount of people who slammed their brakes on when they saw 3 guys wearing white helmets and fluorsescent yellow standing on the bridge. Priceless. He said it was even better if you put your hands together and pointed them at the cars as if you were holding a radar gun. Makes me want to stop there on the way home and do it for old timers sake.

My next helmet is gonna be a white one...
