A bit? I work there so have to go there, otherwise I wouldn't bother. Now that is one place where they could do with flattening the Chavvy town centre and re-building it...

Move up to County Durham, we don't have any!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and have some of the best riding roads in the country.

I went down to swindon the other day and I saw no police on a sunday... I went the back ways on the nice roads. I guess there could have been some cops but I didnt see any

Barnsley isnt bad as up here they dont seem hung up on speeding. Ive never seen a mobile van here.

One thing Wiltshire does have is great back roads, I spent years on these as a young'n before enlisting.

Dorset is great, never have any problems with the Police down here despite the exhausts.

There are some fantastic roundabouts down in swindon, the less used ones obviously. MAN you can fly around them with MAJOR lean angles

It's a doddle, when people say they find it confusing then I say they shouldn't be on the roads! It is one roundabout after another, how confusing can that be as all the traffic still goes one way around! Mind you Swindon is has its fair share of idiots on the road still.....

Yes Swindon does have it's fair share of idiots on the road and half of them do not know which lane to use at roundabouts. I cannot imagine what the Magic Roundabout must be like at rush hour.There are quite a few roundabouts on my way to work Jct 16 to North Star House but I haven't spotted any speed cameras at all.

Yep, only the once. I was lucky because there wasnt much traffic and I only went to the next exit... It is a little daunting though, I can see why people dont really like it.

I had a bit of a road rage incidnet there this morning, well I stuck two fingers up and hurled some abuse....

Some muppet was in the Wroughton lane and tried ramming me out of the Wootton Bassett lane (which is the one he wanted) as we entered the roundabout from Swindon. Nearly had his mirror off....
