Yellow Storm, small number plate. Coming into Derby on A50 about 9pm ish. Absolutely hissing it down.

If it was you, hope you got back OK and not too wet!!

Hi Karlos. I was in the car. Overtook you going round the bend leaving the A50 (I think). Nice sounding cans

Both my wife and I come from Derby (well Ashbourne myself). Worked in Derby (RR) until 1975, then got a job in Swindon. We have family in Derby and Ashbourne, hence the visit.
I sometimes do the trip on the bike, but glad I didn't that night - although it was a good night for a drive on the way back, once past Lichfield.

Thats the one! Silver e-class.
Said to the wife you'd be off if you kept up the speed you were doing round the bend (she was probably asleep at the time)!!
