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.

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.....

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

Plymptonish,A38...

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

mogwai 03-Apr-2005 19:51

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
