They don't always ask to see the license, especially if they recognise you.

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Your not far wrong, and its time for me time to move in a slightly differant direction...
Just don't tell Mags...and Iv'e been doing a little delving into the future and if things go the way for me over the next year which could be :( :shock: :? :lol: :wink: :thumbsup , even so if things alow I fancy trying buying & building my own Westfeild kit with a variant selection of engines to choose from however the the Buussaa bike engine,would be the one for me...I have plenty of time over the next two years to accuire, build and put on the road.

If I'm not involved in some sort of driving incedent over the next year, it will be intervention from the above that saves me ...... Not driving has its advantages... I can have a few beers and not worry about tomorrow.... :wink:

I have done at least 10 hazard perseption tests which I scored 5/5 bla bla....and as many theori tests and without looking at a book or tinternet I'm fine for an old cnut....the first I managed 43 out of 50 just off the top of my head then down to 33 then up to 48 /50.., so I must have been paying attention over the last 26 years on the road... :wink:

Just think next year at this time I will be getting my provisional oh and L plates.. fab........... :lol:

If I diden't laugh I;d cry...... :lol:

Just saw this and have to say part of the reaosn I lost my mojo was precisely because I had to switch my brain off to drive at moderate speeds.
Just navigating through the stoopid masses was too.... numbing.
And since of course I have no budget to go racing...

Want an exciting time on the roads?
You can always do as I did.
Go downhill skateboarding. :D
