    Hey look! Another L plate poll!

    This is cool. Combine this with the Vigilante threads and we should be back to talking about beer, quick smart!
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Mine snapped off. Wasn't all that flexible. Noticed it was gone when I came out of a gas station and saw the back of the bike.

    If repetition on the internet is something which winds you up, what the heck are you doing here??? And bothering to reply to it as well?

    Go for a bike ride.

    Had an L-plate, but it was only the size of a credit card... never got in trouble for it either!

    The poll is missing a "sometimes" option. Like when sitting the Restricted road test, and prior to discovering that L plates seem to incense some motorists into wanting to kill you.

    And I really like the Monteiths Pilsner.

    Yeah, good point, I voted yes as I rode a GN and figured I'd rather people knew why I was riding that bike, but in hindsight I should have taken it off due to the amount of arseholes who think it stands for "Likes it up the butt" or something and tailgate like hell, bastards. (Could have been having to do 70kmph on the motorway also, another stupid rule!!)
    Speights for me.

    My bike has worn the L plate once, ...then I took off because I do not stick to the 70km limit and did not want to draw attention to myself. So far so good, done 8300km in 9 weeks and no trouble with cops, thought there was going to be a bit of bother Sat avo when 2 other bikes and myself where speeding, cop did a uey, we turned off the motorway and disappeared and thankfully no problems, not sure what he was up to.

    Stella or Heinekin for me thanks.
    Also partial to Monteiths of varying brews.

    I have a broken L plate, just like Lucy, mine broke off. Cant be bothered getting a new one on. But I dont stick to 70kph.... too dangerous.

    After a Monteith's Radler of course.

    You sound like a Radler girl.

    And contributing on topic I used to do the sometimes thing as well.

    I had one for a month or 2 till it broke off. Was even double bolted on, so it is pretty easy for them to snap. Maybe not if you stick to 70 but bugger that.
