Getting caught on a speed camera is an ambition
rather than a problem.
Its such cheap transport in the city, I really can't fault mine other than having every 16 year old who thinks they are rossi trying to find out if their hair drier has more watts than mine

my dad had this outlook when he had a landrover.
my mate has a moped so i raced down a long straight road on my push bike and beat him


he could only get 34 and i got 38mph
