guess who got told off today....
spent a great morning in the sunshine teaching a guy level 2, finished at lunchtime and decided to put in some much needed time trialling to learn to drive the thing a little faster, went out into the solent down to langstone, across to cowes, soton water etc then decided to go for it , managed our new best of 76 (still learnin i know) and then got done by QHM and Police on our return saying we were speeding and caught on radar, guess what speed they clocked us at bloody 50!!!!! why do i bother???? tried saying it wasn't us but as they know me locally from teaching looks like i'm buggered, officer .
anyone know where you can get removable race numbers: headbang: :

That makes it hard to obey the law on Southampton Waters!
That has to be less than a mile wide in places dunnit?
