Case of mistaken identity?

I got pulled over this morning by a cop biker, acused of being seen splitting at high speed by smokey.

He does the usual checks and finally smokey pulls up as well as says, "nah thats not him"

I got let off with a warning.

Smokey said the other chap wore a high visibility Orange Vest like mine but a different colour bike and no pack rack.

I know I was pushing the limits, rushing to work.

My question is, how fast was my doppelganger going?

I was south bound and saw that cop on a cycle just hanging out on the checkered verge at Kyber Pass off ramp. After the assult they had on the shore yesterday (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showpost.php?p=1282409&postcount=51) and a ticket issueing frenzy... All they are doing is :buggerd: for more cash.
