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.

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

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

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