Someone I know used to regularly max his cossie 20’odd years ago, no idea how people manage it these days! He even had an indicated 140 on an A road racing an R1. They’ve put a roundabout there now and made it a 40 limit.
Does anyone else find these days you feel like a criminal for even overtaking someone on an A or B road? Years ago it was totally the norm but these days people seem to get annoyed and flash you.
