From: darsy on 30 Jul 2010 09:25 Just seen one of The Met's finest heading down Brixton Hill - the usual leathers + flouro jacket, and white lid, riding on a bike with the usual blue/yellow colour chequered colour scheme, couple of antennae and a blue light-onna-stick, extra blue lights at the front. However it wasn't the usual Pan-euro or BMW type of thing, mind - this was on a Piaggio MP3 - pretty silly looking. -- d.

He must have fucked up: worse than being last one to the doughnut shop, he probably fell down on numbers of suspects shoved down the station steps not up to target, 'cos the MP3 detail must be punishment duty that calls for worse than Marble Arch points duty on a Friday afternoon. -- SIRPip : B12

I know what you're thinking. "Did he change down six gears or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself...

I can remember seeing a cop on some sort of Honda moped not too far removed from a C75 around Milton Keynes in 1990. -- Malc Rusted and ropy. Dog-eared old copy. Vintage and classic, or just plain Jurassic: all words to describe me.
