The plan is to go to cafe in the woods at fimber , then prob on to Helmsley then coast probably Whitby , anybody near me going out ? Looks like there's a Barry sheene road race festival on in Scarborough !
Pity it's just out of reach stevie! Sounds like a good plan ,enjoy your ride dude. And photos please.
Steve you wasn't parked at the side of the road with a few mates on the A64 were you?, heading for Leeds.. at about 6.30 ish.. Cannot miss your lovely Repsol leathers..
Had to take a detour as a64 shut due to a spilt load of potatoes, horrendous for people in their cars lol
Ha... I must have eyes like a Hawk.. We were in the car going the other way... Yeah I did see the Busa setting up shop earlier in the morning with his mate just behind him, some where at the bottom of Garrowby Hill.. Its a very Stealth set up they have.. Hope you didn't get too many points..
Luckily I escaped ashblade , they got 3 of my mates tho. I think it was all pre planned We got flashed off an hgv driver near fridaythorpe so were going very slow, going into Friday Thorpe we encountered said undercover busa and green & white cop bike. We then went to cafe int woods at fimber, whilst supping some nice latte and home made cakes etc we noticed the police bike pull up outside. Thought they had pulled a car and caravan over outside the cafe, but they hadn't we now reckon they were checking out if we were there. as we set off towards brid we took a left turn and me being at the back as usual saw a bike appear behind me staying some distance back , even when I hit the national speed limit signs. After a while the busa got fed up I reckon as I was going so slow. It then came by me and I seen the chequered police badge ont back of helmet and blue lights at side of indicators. He then went after my mates and clocked them, next the traffic bike came flying by. A few miles further down the traffic car was in the road with the lights flashing etc, already waiting for them. So the 2 of us at the back who suspected summat a miss never got copped. To be fair the cops told them somebody on a bike was killed at the crossroads they went over only a few weeks before. He reckoned once bikes get onto the straight and get going people in cars pull out on them. Anyway survived no points for another day, went on speed awareness course last year so can't do with any more brushes with the law.
Stevie,when you were at Fimber having Coffee and cakes did you have the Yorkshire curd tart.. ? cos its to die for.. lol.. .Oh yeah and there's another menace up our way,a BMW rr same kinda set up as the Busa,worth keeping your eyes open for..
Stevie... You wasn't at Squires today were ya... I did wave.. lol (Im not stalking you btw) its them leathers....
Nah I never had it, for some strange reason I had a small sausage & caramelised onion tart. It was scrummy I wasn't at squires today it was probably one of my lookalikes , there's a few people impersonating me Thanks for the heads up on the BMW rr , what colour and how old was it. The busa was a dark grey 59 plate. Might catch people out by its age !! Steve
They're always round that neck of the woods, usually wetwang car's parked up and then they tip off the bikes to look out for you. we also saw them sat in Howden the other weekend, so if your out that way keep your eyes peeled. Try to stay away from the coast roads when we want a faster ride.
I was up at Seaways (Fridaythorpe) on Monday... It was lovely, no looking in your mirrors every 2 mins...I've stopped going up there on a weekend at this time of year its getting rather silly...
We went up to Fimber on wednesday and it was quiet and no police visible, weekends are murder round there although they seem to be spreading the area a bit more now. Has anybody heard of the police pulling and complimenting riders for safe riding. Met a couple of people who it's happened to now.
