    Sorry to tell you this, it was reading your speed.

    There was one of those down my street last night.
    We didnt have our bikes, as we were heading to the pub.

    But I did have my running shoes!
    Got 22km past it. (keep in mind that my belly was full of beer!)

    I'm still trying to locate one when I've got the bike... partner told me about one the other day, but 20mins later when I got there it was gone... gutted.

    As for Blakamin's theory on speedo error - I tootled past a cop at 220 a few weeks back, and he didn't do anything either. He put his lights on and turned around. But since he never stopped me I guess my bike speedo must be reading 110% fast and he was on his way to another callout.
