On the way back home from Minehead today the police pulled me & my mate over , it was a motorbike copper stopped me & my mate we weren't going too fast so thought he was going to check bikes over , but no he just stopped us for a chat and gave us a leaflet each ( see below ) , asked about my superdream & told me he had a mate who had a SD , he seemed a nice bloke & was just out to speak to bikers now the new riding season starts and invited us to bike safe track experience at castle Combe on 12 April , seems a great idea rather than nagging us about the speed we go . He was biker as well & rags around on a Kawasaki when he's not on his police bike

I got pulled back in 2007 in Redditch on the deluxe.
The 40-something copper couldn't stop looking at the bike and said 'don't see many of these now do we'
And that was six years ago.... LOL.

He said he stopped me because when I came around the roundabout it looked like I was about to lose it.
I said 'that's not how it was occifer'.

I done a track day a couple of years ago with Philip McCallen and Jeremy McWilliams but the traffic branch Bikesafe team were there too. It was a great day and they were all bikers outside the job they could also hustle a Pan European round a track

coppers eh!!
pull you over cos there was a robbery and they got away on an sd!!...........even pulled the lad over cos he was going 2 up at the speedlimit of 30mph, followed them into Tesco car park and waited!!
bikesafe, perfect advise for a perfect world...............I was wanting to know how to deal with moronic dangerous car drivers ( without being arrested ) rather than how to ride amongst bits of tyre, exhaust pipe, broken car parts, gravel and litter..........all found at the side of the road!!
but a bike safe track day

had the same at brackley bike fest ,, me and mate were talking to a bike copper about speed , and he suggested to us about going on the course , we just laughed , cus my mate rides a 1959 triumph bonnie , and does not rush it anywhere , I mean anywhere .. I am his tailend Charlie ,, as he brakes down, constantly, then I go home to pick up the bike trailer to tow him home ,, the copper was very amused by this . and wanted to see the triumph ,, as he used to ride one (so he says ) haho that's life .. tried to get him to buy a Honda,, but he is a british biker ,, ha ha
