YJ07 YHO TV Star!

Caught a local BBC news programe last night called 'inside out'. One of it's presenters is an ex MET police oficer who was spending a day with North Yorkshire police in one of their two Subaru Impeza patrol cars (no prizes for guessing why they use these). They caught a guy doing 125mph on the Settle by-pass, the most patroled stretch of road in Yorkshire, and guess what he was riding? A Superduke His defence was ' I didn't realise how fast I was going ', nice try. He must have had his chin on the tank to stop his head being pulled off! So if it's you or you know who it is, here's a tip; Don't ride up the Settle bypass at more than 60mph, you WILL get nicked. Still, think of all that polishing time you will have while you wait for your licence to be reinstated.

I didn't realise how fast I was going

a likely story

He needs my solicitor.

Could have been worse, he's a Yorkshireman, lucky he was riding his bike and not his woolly girlfriend

Bloody hell, I wouldn't like to be in his shoes.

It's a victimless crime, but they'll go to town on him.

I fooking hope the guys who cleared my garage out last year get caught speeding, then they truely will know the wrath of the law.

He should have tried the.... "sorry officer, my wife ran off with a copper last year - I thought you were bringing the bitch back so I nailed it to get away" ...routine
