As luck would have it...

In general I am not a crazy rider - rather conservative in fact many might say...

But every so often, the demons get loose (forgot the pills again dinn'e?) and the envelope gets a little nudge...

Such was the case this morning. 45 minutes to ride in. And a little pissed off about certain events of last evening...so there was a bit of aggression present that is not usually there...

On a fairly isolated back road, that has some rather attractive sweepy-twisty bits on it, I let the hounds run a little more freely than is usual. Found myself exiting this stretch at a velocity that was just a tad over the recommended rate...

Comes the intersection with the more major road. Slow to stop. Look up to see the LEO car turning into the road I have just exited... two minutes earlier on his part or two minutes later on my part and things could have got just a little sticky...

Some days we get lucky. Better be good from now on... (I suppose)

You Crazy Old Loon!

Yea, done the same on Xmas day heading to Wanganui. If he had been 2 mins earlier, things would not have been so good, that day. It made me behave myself the rest of the trip tho.

Once I was passing a line of cars in a passing lane on SH1, got up to licence losing speeds, slowed down back to 110km/h after passing the cars and immediately a cop car comes around the bend going the other way. If he was 10 seconds earlier...

If I had a $ for every time that has happened to me I would be rich!

The reason I am not rich is because they got more than a $ for every time it didn't!
