    The only place I have stuck my head up was between two second rowers and it was not a pleasant experience.

    The red one's not that old, it replaced a green one that was involved in an accident or 3 and finally got too expensive to repair...

    It stands out a bit more than the green one did when against trees and bush, a small mercy perhaps.

    Which might explain why it is so very carefully parked behind a hill.......?

    Perfection is not something you should ever attain, but something to always strive for. For if we actually achieve our idea of perfection, is it then any longer perfect?

    actually it really depends what the speed camera operater is doing in the van as to how it smells...i think it would smell MUSKY.. and you would probably find a stack of penthouses under the seat

    I was on a ride a couple of years ago to Paerora, the sacred yearly pilgramage to M@cca (aka the street races). Van parked on side of road. Bikers riding past heading in the same direction, scant regard for speed, making the camera flash after flash; snaps of the front of their bikes.

    I ride past, similar fashion; as I ride past, guy on a TLS rides past me with the front wheel 3 feet in the air.

    The dilemma is this:
    I wanted the action shot of us both riding past, one with the front wheel in the air, the other flipping the international peace sign. But, in order to order it, I would have needed to admit I was one of the bikes. You see the dilemma??? LOL!

    I mean, it was a friend of mine, on a bike like mine, who got overtaken by a wheelstanding hoon. Bloody disgrace, bloody bikers. (Did that sound convincing Ginga Cop?_
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    Haha! maybe! Lol I should think they'd most definately be lying low in that piece of hatred- There'd be hundreds driving past wanting to tear their balls off! Fuckers!

    I've seen one once and couldn't see any fuckers manning it either. Probably for their own safety then...

    If you need to worry about them, then you ride too fast.
    They are only there for those who flout the law like I do.
    Ahhh, the speed issue yet again .
    If ya dont speed ya don't get a photo!
    Anyway, carry on, law abiding citizens!

    Golf would be quite apropriate. The only game where white people get to dress up in public like black pimps.

    ever considered

    what or how they would revenue collect if everyone stuck to the speed limit.
    Shore they would come up with something, but the govt depends on x amount of dollars how much would they lose daily?

    Just a thought i wanted to share.
    If you cant fix it with a hammer, Its an electrical problem.

    Ever since the first time I've seen those speed camera L300 vans (and they always seem to be L300s around here) I've developed a nervous twitch everytime I see any L300 with tinted windows parked on the side of the road.

    Which is annoying because I almost lost it completely and run myself off the road when my local takeaway decided to have their newly purchased L300 pulled up on the side of the road.

    Dont even know why i get nervous. I'm a law abiding citizen
