    No.

    And I've never heard of anyone being pinged for it.
    Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon

    nope, flat back, seen him a few times, kind of gets your attention cause it looks like a harley riders bike broke down, so he "borrowed" the 1st bike he could find

    Glad mrs caseye is up and riding again. Also tried to get myself a Bell apex but they didn't have my size,bugger.
    Glad I was wearing a full face helmet when I kissed a power pole ( the solid good old car splitting ones) many moons ago , might have been a short life.Still remember the picture in my head of my feet and hands in the air in front of me as I bounced off it,ha,ha. Was a little problem with target fixation.

    Many thnaks for the gladness, Mrs Caseye is not only up and riding again but after having her restricted postponed repeatedly, the last time due to her and her bike being incapacitated for 6 weeks, she now has said Restricted as well, breezed through and arrived at my work with L plate intact so I could cut the BARSTARD damnd dangereous thing off! Glad you were wearing a real lid way back then mate, it's not total insurance but it beats nothing.
    Every day above ground is a good day!:

    Send my CONGRATULATIONS to Mrs Caseye for getting her restricted. Awesome more bikes = less cars on the road. Was only wearing a full face way back then because I thought they looked "cool" (ha,ha) pity about the jandals , T shirt and shorts though. With time comes wisdom.
