They speed traps on road.

I don't know what's going on but there seems to be a larger than
normal police presence on the M5 around the Michaelwood services.
There have been several bikes and cars loitering on the hard shoulder
and what looks like 2 spe^H^Hsafety camera vans on one of the bridges.

In the afternoon not the morning though, lazy buggers.

Only one motor between 4 bikes? Did they take turns accelerating or
something?

I wonder if they still play Snooker with their prospective victims - red
car, then (if red is successfully nicked for something), Snooker colour,
then red again, and so on until they fail to do somebody for something.
Tot up the break score, then it is the turn of Plod 2.

that would explain why I've been nicked in a red BMW & a black Mazda yet my
yellow bikes have been ignored.
