    You can still ride a decent pace without getting done. the cops dont do you for no reason.
    wasn't it the atnr where they pinged you guys riding past then held you at a checkpoint afterwards?

    the atnr where the ginga cop has made his name?

    they're out there, every thursday, with the implied intent to ping you guys for breaking the road rules. now i do tend to ride within the posted limits, but do get somewhat paranoid when riding and that really ruins it for me, especially out riverhead way where i'm never quite sure if it's a 70, 80 or 100 k zone...

    besides, my brother lost his licence going from a 70k zone to a 50k zone, and the guilty until proven innocent system left him without a licence without a chance to contest it before walking home.

    that was back on his 250 spada!

    to be fair he was pinged doing 98kph having held his speed from the 70kph zone, but the cop was (in my opinion) too close to the change, hiding around the immediate corner. unfortunately he pinged enough speed to take the licence rather than just a fine, but there would have/should have been a ticket either way

    borderline/unpredictable

    but it shouldn't be too bad - remember it tends to rain out west regardless of the weather elsewhere
