    I saw a mufti cop bike in Wellington about 1973. We were going up the Ngauranga Gorge and he was ahead of me doing 100kph. The bike was a standard BSA, no fairing, and his clothing was a nylon two piece of the type common at the time. His helmet was not standard Transport Dept. The only reason I didn't overtake him was that he was wearing those boots that only a cop would wear.

    My suspicions were confirmed when he waved at a truck to slow down and pointed at the front of his helmet where he must have had a Transport Dept badge.

    I have always been pleased that the idea didn't catch on. Until now?

    I always figured it was entrapment when a bike like this pulled in behind you on a nice bit of road in the UK.
