I went to north Wales the for weekend with the wife, used the car, which turned out to be a good choice. Went through three, yes three, police speed traps, all sited to catch bikes rather than cars.

If I had gone on the bike that might have turned out to be an interesting day, go out in the morning with a clean licence, by the time you get back home you could be banned.

all sited to catch bikes rather than cars.

What sort of locations were they at?

The first one was on the A5 on the way to Betws-y-coed, from Llangollen on the long straight section at Glasfryn, unmarked bike, flat twin BMW parked at the roadside.

The second one was on A470 from Betws-y-coed to Conway, police car tucked a little side road on a fast flowing bend section.

The third was on the A5 coming out of Bethesda, just as you come over a hump back bridge and just before the derestriction signs.
