Ghost Riders in the Sky

Post by MellowYellow »

Just got a NIP for doing 61 in a 30 at 03.00 a couple of days ago.

It's a camera that all locals know. Downhill into Pensford village on the A 37 with a narrow pinchpoint and sharp left. Wouldn't do 60 down there even with no camera.

O:-) O:-) O:-)

Are you using this as part of your sales pitch for the blackbird?

umm no 30, they tend to take a real dim view of HGV,s speeding in villages , and would probably end up before te traffic commisioner pleading to keep get my licence back in 12 months
