You know this afternoon I detailed to another URCM member the delights of wearing the shoulders off Kermy's rear tyres. Anyway just for a laugh I decided I'd increase my tyre pressures to 35 PSI to compare notes.
Tim Kemp, what's the A-Class like on 35s all around?
Ours is a "bit skitterish" *cough*.
Skitterish as in, two dozy duffers in a silver 5-series pulls on to the gloriously wide slip road that goes from the A162 to the A64 this evening at the heady pace of 36 mph...
Hindsight being a wonderful thing I probably should have banged on the brakes or crashed it, because instead banging on the power* just made the slide gradually fade out and us nip onto the dual carriageway.
Aforementioned duffers twigged that I was a bad boy or something so proceeded to flash his headlights at me. Then I spotted that the BMW had a funky camera type thing on the dashboard. I should have spotted that sooner, slap me, oooh slap me. Anyway, car pulled up next to me, officer closest looked over and shook his head, wagged his finger and they accelerated away...
Heh. Phew. Type thing. In fairness my police contact tells me they won't stop me unless they're wearing uniform or I do something really stupid...
*Power in the Ka sense, so not much really.
