good post doc,rode with a couple o guys two months ago,who had done advanced cource in there club down in southend,concenses was,they would drive 65 ish B roads an 80 dual an mway.these guys did huge milages,an there for did not want to risk pionts.they could overtake an manage the "triangle of death" approach to sitten behind cars,an me and my mate who were riden that day,"on technically faster bikes"were screemen some times to keep up.bike speedoes seem to read circa 5 to10 % below,an they were usin this to to best affect.other thing though,white vans wi camera pokin out back.what phones gona sort that out.anyway cheers bt...
