Spotted on the news tonight that the bobbies in the borders areas are going to be giving the 2 wheeled motorists a hard time (you can tell it's coming to summer time again). They had some footage of a bike passing close to the crest of a hill nearly on solid centre line, then as you were thinking to yourself "bit close that " another bike passed on the solid whites on the crest and wearing a "Hi Vis Vest "!!!! Zero's Mate??.
Then they showed a couple of unmarked tourers with the blues hidden in the mirrors, silver I think. No mention if they had camera recording equipment on board.


Cheers

Silver Pan Europeans they have.

Nice of them to give away what their riding to give us a fighting chance.
