| Well guys !
The van left the docs as the boys on the bikes put their helmets on!
I was just at the top of the big hill out of Dover when the sound of thunder went passed
(996)
closely followed by two WASp's (Gixxer) tho's
and then the 600 !
After about 15minutes i had wound the van up to a staggering 85 MPH!!
And there it sat for the next 3 hours apart from a 10minute stop start around heathrow!
SO HOW DID I DO IT???????????
well i turned on the radio and heard the traffic news which said there was a fender bender clockwise section on the M25
and that rubber neckers on the anti clockwise were sitting in a tail back for at least 7 miles from the dartford crossing side!!
so i rang dibble to find out what the traffic was like around gatwick/Heathrow side M25
so i went for the long way round and took a chance on the M25/M40 up to brum!!
and it paid off! 3hrs from dover to cannock !
i was home 45 mins earlier than the bikes ! they stopped for fuel at Toddington !
i stopped for an icecream at clackets lane!!
So me thinks i gotoo go out and get another sports bike to slow me down!!!! LOL .....................yours. Globetrotting mav
