Get a solicitor and hope you don't need a bicycle for a few months.
If there's anything other than just excess speed, such as crossing solid white lines or tailgating / cutting up other motorists or taking dodgy ovetakes then the bicycle will be necessary.

get yourself a good brief and start saving to pay for the fine!!, have you got any points on your licence. :o:o

my brother had the same on the M20 and got an SP60, 56 day ban and £500 for a 109mph average.

[mogwai]

Cheers for the replies peeps,person involved already has 6 points for speeding,not looking good,says he'll just buy a dedicated track bike if he gets a ban,but some t.d. organisers are asking for proof of licence now.....

[ericthered40]

Shame he's not a labor MP or he could of been ****ed aswell and got off.

was it 70mph limit road ?

Fingers X Coz it's up to the court once he cou'nt blag the copper in to droping it under the tun. :(

[deej]

where was it too

i got done in avon/somerset territory and went to taunton court
was doing an average of 105.6mph and was told to expect £350+ fine, 2-3 month ban and i ended up with 14 days ban, 170 quid fine plus 35 quid court costs

all depends on your area and court on the day i think

[mogwai]

Plymptonish,A38...

[JPM]

Even if you get a ban you've still got a license so should be able to get on MSV trackdays easily enough

[mogwai]

Just like to say thanks for the replies and also to say that it isn't me who is looking forward to a ban....:D

[deej]

mogwai do you have a fila rep 999/749, i saw 1 going through landrake the other day 2 up, dont see that many dukes in cornwall if your down my way sometime give us a shout

devon and cornwall aint so bad, id say 2months and £250 at a rough guess mate

[JPM]

Get a decent brief, get all the evidence together, and as he's already got 6 points I'd say he's on for a ban no question, unless there's something a miss in the evidence I'd be tempted to plead guilty from the off, as admission of guilt would look good in the courts eyes, not great by any means but would probably reduce the length of the ban.

I had a same thing happen to me a few years ago I plead guilty and had a letter from my boss saying if I lost my licence I was of no use to him and he'd have to let me go. Ended up with a 7 day ban £100 fine. The other thing was that I had 4 points already but the 7 day ban cleaned it. Always pleade guilty but plead poverty and job relience on license as well.
