    Katmanb, just curious, so here is a question specifically for you.
    Do you have a firmly set idea of what is and is not ok, or safe, eg, do you have a set percentage of the speed limit you stick to? eg Do you never break the limit, or always saty within 10% (110km) 20% (120) 30% (130) of the open road limit?
    I am just wondering what YOUR rule of thumb is for YOU when YOU are riding.
    Not picking, just asking.
    oh, and does your rule of thumb change when its wet, or theres lots of traffic?, if so, by how much?

    ok so its more than one question.

    Nothing set in stone.

    The reality is though that most people's sense of conscience is actually very similar to one another. What varies is how receptive we are to examining and listening to our consciences.

    And yes, there are in fact some peoples out there seemingly devoid of a sense of conscience. It is those ones that require peer pressure to beat a sense of conscience into them.

    Seldom are 'that type' found alone.
    Ergo, they are found in the company of others in the same ilk.
    In which case, from whence will this 'peer pressure' of which you speak, come from? Seeing as how they are surrounded by their peers.
    'Peer' is a word meaning 'equal'
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Most of those groups would have someone that is susceptible to the Seed of Conscience. A bad apple in reverse so to speak.
