Speeding around Bala, the cop / bike magnet?

Silly boys!

1mph over in N. Wales will get you a ticket. Unless you get the local papers which tell you where the plod will have their mobile speed camera on any given day.

I'm now a reformed character ( Old age ) but my view was always ''Smile nicely and accept the ticket''. Just think of all those times when you've got away with over the ton in a 30 when you've been chasing someone, and be glad you weren't caught that time.

It's up to you of course, but from experience I think Rob is spot on with his ''Lonely place '' comment as the court will normally take the comments of a Police Officer as the whole truth - as in fact they normally are, whether we like it or not.
